Nice, relaxnig time. - Tour is fun and relaxing. The drinks and food served are great. You do not get any narration of what you are seeig, but you can still just sit back and relax - especially if you have been already touring and walking a lot.

Rainy day - Great staff, food pretty good, journey and sights great. Would benefit from some commentary during the trip to point out major landmarks

Fabulous Outing - It was very good but I think the occasional commentary would help as if someone has never been to London before they’d have no clue of what’s what. Waitresses were very polite & service was excellent.

No point in taking the tour, we had no idea where we were :( - I have to say, I was quite dissapointed. The afternoon tea was fine, but the tour was not. There was no commentary, no one explaining the sights - we had no idea where we were most of the time! We did see a lot of the (financial) City, which is not very much fun is it, if there is nothing interesting to mention? Such a pity. We might as well have been in a cafe having tea, and take a serious tour on a different occasion. Too bad!

English Tea Bust…200+ to split a scone between 3pol. - We purchased the premium upper deck tour. The pick up spot was difficult to find. We were standing around the corner in front of the building (where the address sends you) on the phone with customer service repeating our confirmation code for the 3rd time when the bus drove by. Literally 30 steps from the stop. The stop is next to the building in an area that looks scary. They then sent us to the office close by who sent us back to the bus stop where they squeezed us in on the bottom floor and gave us what left over food they had. Although I appreciate them taking pitty on us for being unable to find the stop, we did not get our moneys worth. The upper level seemed to be enjoying themselves. I wouldn’t go again. Over $200 for 3 people forgotten on the first level eating left overs…. We split one scone, seriously.
