Fabulous tea time! - We had the most enjoyable time on the tea bus. The sandwiches and sweets were wonderful and we even had time to run in and pick up a stuffed hairy cow during a short bathroom break at the art museum. Our tour guides were wonderful and very entertaining! Would definitely recommend!

Go on this tour - Unsure of what to expect based on limited info but food, drink and bus tour on classic coach made the event exceptional - relieved our need to do a hop on - hop off tour. Great value

Fun tour and brilliant tea time! - I found this tour while looking for a good place for afternoon tea. This bus was a great find. The tea and goodies were so delicious and the presentation was excellent. We couldn't understand half of what the guide said because of her thick accent. But we didn't really care because we really enjoyed our champagne and goodies. Would recommend.

Not good for vegans - I booked this for my friends birthday treat, stated that there were 2 vegans in party,bought the gold experience for my friend. We were told to be there 15 mins before, we did, but had to wait til, after 3 with no communication and it was freezing. We were allocated seats,my friends tea tray looked amazing,ours not so good, I asked if that was the vegan option - no Glutin free !!!!, she apologised and took small tray away, we had to wait 10/15 mins for our food, we had 4 sandwiches, 4 falfafels, 5 rocky roads n 1 jam tart on a small plate, quite shocked really, it was awful compared to non vegan, they knew beforehand, no real apologies, then the warm scones came round, no vegan option, really disappointed. Also gold package, 2 balloons, 1 banner, and a badge, 4 shots, not worth the money. The tour itself, fantastic but our day was spoiled from the word go.

Was okay. - The warm sconce was the only thing we really liked. The food was okay. The sandwich bread was a little stiff from being out too long. The coffee was warm and tasted watered down. Didn’t care for the loud American music and when the guide did talk about what we were passing, she was very difficult to understand. She sounded like she was reading off of something and like she had her mouth right on the microphone.

No commentary - Food was good and plentiful (like pictured) but there was no commentary. The description notes places we would pass by but idk if we did because they are not even pointed out. We expected more of a tour atmosphere and to get to know the city.

They cancelled - They canceled my tour 3 days in advance due to a driver illness. This seems like a big tour/company so I was really shocked that they made zero effort to accommodate the tour or offer alternatives. Very disappointing.
