Afternoon Tea Experience Days: We know you have the good sense to love afternoon tea, so why not take this quintessentially British experience to the next level by enjoying it on board a vintage red Routemaster bus? During this 1.5-hour afternoon tea bus tour of Edinburgh or Glasgow, you’ll be able to take in the sights of Scotland’s capital while you indulge in delectable cakes, scones and sandwiches. Yum!

This unique afternoon tea experience will begin as you step on board the stunning red vintage Routemaster bus. Here, you’ll be shown to your seats for the journey. You can get settled in and enjoy the view from the window; it’ll only get better as the route continues, taking in the many gorgeous sights of your chosen Scottish city! Next, the food is served. Enjoy perfectly baked scones with jam and fresh whipped cream, along with a selection of freshly-made finger sandwiches featuring seasonal fillings, mini quiches, Scottish smoked salmon blinis, a selection of petit fours, mini Victoria sponges and meringues. Of course it wouldn’t be an afternoon tea without – well – the tea, so enjoy unlimited tea and coffee to accompany your great British feast. You'll also be treated to a complimentary glass of Prosecco. While you tuck in, the on-board commentary from your guide will fill you in on the rich history of your chosen city! 

The Afternoon Tea on a Vintage Routemaster Bus is a great way to see the sights with friends, and would make the perfect experience gift for those who like their afternoon teas to be just a little bit different!
