    Staff was fun and efficient!! Food was very good. Tour was interesting! Pick up was seamless. Spouse and I enjoyed it. Lots of photo ops.

  2. Susanne_K

    Good variety of sandwiches and pastries. Not for someone who want a quiet time as it was a bit bumpy and the speaker a bit scrapy. Crew was very cheerful.

  3. Michelle_C

    We loved the whole experience! This tour was the very first thing we did and it was a great starting point to help us navigate throughout the city later on. As we stopped at places or passed them I was able to write down places I wanted to return with the family. Our tour guides were also very friendly and answered all my questions.

    Great service and a great experience! From music, to food, and the service staff, everyone made the experience very enjoyable

  6. Wysan

    This is not the quality I would have expected on vintage bus, unprofessional staff and food pretty budget for the cost price !

  7. Michiko_B

    This was a fun afternoon enjoying sandwiches and sweets, seeing the sights and hearing some well told stories about Edinburgh. The stories I heard here were better told than the ones I heard on the Hop on Hop Off bus tour. Well worth it!

  8. Tarah_B

    We sat at the top in the front with an amazing view. A bit bumpy but super fun and the drinks and baked scones were wonderful. Would book this again.

  9. Rebecca_G

    The food was great, the tour guide was funny and the drive around the city had some great stops. This was one of my favorite things I’ve done so far. What a great idea to have tea in a moving double decker red bus.

  10. Nina_C

    Cozy trip with some good food and drinks. Pleasant and happy guides. Everyone in the bus was in a good mood. Nice tour through the streets of Edinburgh. Can be recomended.

  11. Lesley_M

    Went on the tour bus for my friends 70th birthday treat. We had a fabulous time and met some lovely people from Ohio and also two other couples who were lovely too.
    Would definitely recommend this afternoon tea as the food, atmosphere and the staff especially were amazing.

  12. Beverly_A

    Insufficient directions to find venue. Tea was just ok. Bus was hot. Nothing special. Did meet some nice people.

  13. Lorna_P

    Great time on the bus tour, our tour guide was Frank both him and the driver were great, we had the full of the down stairs to ourself so felt like a private tour. The mocktails came in cool teapots. Food was lovely good choice

    What a great afternoon tea on the Bistro Bus around Edinburgh, and the crew worked so hard and made my daughter and sisters birthdays extra special, would highly recommend it 😊

  15. Sandra_E

    Had lovely tea. and lovely tour. Spoiled by guide having more fun with upstairs guests missed out on what landmarks were of significance. And unsure why 2 x 10 minute comfort breaks were necessary on hour and half tour

  16. Carol_Y

    The organizers put a 3rd single woman in our booth, so we started the ride with me and my husband have to share a seat that comfortable fits ONE person, not 2. I was hanging on trying not to fall off. Luckily, they found the lady her own table, but a good quarter of the ride was shared with a stranger — not the romantic adventure I had planned.
    In addition, Edinburgh’s streets are anything but smooth, so the ride is extremely bumpy. It sounded like a good idea, but if you’re looking for a nice afternoon, sipping tea while enjoying the sights, this really isn’t it. Go get a nice high tea at a nice restaurant where you don’t need plastic lids on plastic cups to enjoy your drink.
    To their credit, the staff is extremely friendly, helpful and attentive.

    This was so fun! Afternoon tea on a vintage double decker through the streets of Edinburgh – what’s not to love? They even made a gluten free tea for me, which was such a delight.

  18. Una_T

    The food was delicious and the music great, matched the era of the bus. My sister and I rode that type of bus as children so it brought back memories.

  19. Slande_E

    Great experience. The goodies were delicious. And it was really fun driving around and also seeing some of the sights around Edinburgh.

  20. Todd_W

    Cute experience! Food was very good and the staff friendly. We didn’t realize when purchasing that we were going to be seated on the lower level over the bus axles. Rather uncomfortable to have your seats facing toward the center and then having to twist around to try to eat over the table between you. Was told afterward that we should have upgraded the seats while purchasing. Went back to the website today and it does not clearly explain the seating arrangement between pricing rates. Still it was a cute experience.

    The tea folks were lively and accommodating. The drinks and food were good. The only issue was the reporting instructions, using their directions function led me to the middle of the park and not to where the bus was. Christian was most helpful and kind as were the rest of the group.
