Fun experience and lively staff! Nice tea and yummy treats made this a great time plus got to see some of the sights without having to walk amongst the crowds. Tour guide was a load of fun and the tea cups were given out as souvenirs!

The afternoon tea was amazing and the staff were fantastic xx The only thing that spoilt it was the table behind us talked really loud through the whole tour and we struggled to hear what the tour guide was saying. I feel that the staff should may say at the beginning ( in a polite way) that whilst you may not be interested in listening to what the tour guide has to say but some people are so please be kind and respectful to others. That is not a reflection on your company that’s just others being rude. The whole experience was amazing and I am sure that I will be booking again.

The food was lovely and staff friendly Unfortunately the table I thought I had booked was upstairs(although it was never stated on my paperwork,when requesting a reservation I booked table 7) when we arrived at the coach station I was told we had table number 4 downstairs, we were the only table downstairs and everyone else upstairs so no ambience, we had to ask for crackers and more tea Very disappointed as this was a Christmas present for my mum and 2 daughters, this is the second time we have done the Christmas bus tour but unfortunately this time wasn’t as good as the last time ,

Tue, 20th Nov 2018
A great treat, but a person not used to London, almost missed the bus because we didn’t realise there are 2 Victoria stations (bus and coach) and the two persons we asked, who were dressed to help with info around Victoria, gave us the wrong directions! However, after hailing the bus from the other side of the road, stepped on to the bus and enjoyed our afternoon treat!
