afternoon tea bus

The staff were very good and friendly and the afternoon tea itself was good, though portions could have been bigger.However I was very disappointed with the tour element as there was very little commentary or information on sights.

Excellent afternoon tea experience….

We had such a lovely time on the Afternoon Tea Bus with panoramic views of London - everything was spot on from start to finish. The food was genuinely lovely with fresh sandwiches, scones and delicious little cakes beautifully presented, and the staff were so friendly, attentive and professional, especially considering they're working on a moving bus. It was around 90 minutes which was the perfect length, full but not cramped, and had a really special, relaxed atmosphere that felt like a proper occasion and great value for what you get. My only tiny suggestion would be that an extra cold drink would be a nice touch, particularly on a warm day, but overall I couldn't fault it and would absolutely recommend it for a birthday, celebration or special day out.
