Ride Edinburgh in a vintage red bus while enjoying afternoon tea, sweet treats, unlimited tea or coffee, and city views.

“It was a great way to be introduced to Edinburg. The atmosphere on the bus was very friendly, our driver Stuart and young people (Adan and the young lady) that served us sandwiches and pastries were very welcoming and helpful. The bus drove around the city and on our way we were able to see some major attractions and old monuments. It was fun, delightful and memorable. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone as an introduction to the great city.”

4.Delightful Scottish Afternoon Tea Experience in Edinburgh

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 4 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $114

Enjoy a cozy Edinburgh afternoon tea with fizz, homemade treats, friendly company, and a welcoming host in a small group setting.

“We had a lovely few hours and our host was wonderful and her shop has a fun vibe. The only reason I didn’t rate it a five was the cost vs the food received. I have spent less on high teas in London with considerably more impressive food options.”
