    Despite being a bit late the crew was able to still pick us up from the next closest location the bus was going to. Everything was very nicely prepared: food was absolutely delicious, crew nice and funny and the driving smooth. I would like to thank Paddy, Hannah, Dan and Orlath for absolutely memorable experience!

    Great food and beverages. Fun hosts and great guiding us around Dublin. A must do adventure on this 1960s British double decker bus!
    A MustDo Tea Party
    Kemily_N, May 2024
    Such a wonderful tea party with a well narrated tour. The tea was plentiful, the bus is decorated with intent and the desserts were amazing.
    Best Time Ever
    Autumn_W, May 2024
    My colleague and I took 12 college students to Dublin, Ireland for a study abroad. Everyone loved the tea bus experience. It was quite magical. The guides were great! The route past the President's house and other major attractions was great. The information provided about the history from the light tax (windows) and the number of steps on each home was great.
    Great experience
    Noreen_D, May 2024

    Really enjoyed our bus ride. Hannah and her team were great, very entertaining and nothing was too much trouble. Food wise we were very well catered for, especially with 2 GF’s and one of them also a vegetarian.

    Patricia_D, Apr 2024
    As this was a birthday present for my sister I was disappointed with the service we got although the staff did there very best to keep everyone happy on our trip you only need one set of passengers that are demanding leaving them very little time for the rest of the passengers . Also if they are going to offer a choice of fruit or plain scones to make sure they cook enough for the passengers to have a choice as when they got to us only had fruit ones left and when you are looking forward to that part of the afternoon tea it left us both very disappointed. They did offer us a couple more small pieces of sandwiches .
    Response from Host, Apr 2024
    Hi Trisha. Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review, we really appreciate it. We are sorry to hear that the service your received was not up to our usual standard. I will be sure to discuss this with our team to ensure this does not happen again in future and we hope your sister was still able to have an enjoyable birthday. We will be sure to take your feedback on board regarding the scones. Thanks again for your feedback.
    Decadent traveling tea

    We had a great time enjoying the excellent sandwiches, pastries and tea. As others have stated, this isn't an in depth tour, but highlights are pointed out and we especially enjoyed Phoenix Park.
    10/10!!!

    The best high tea experience in Dublin!
    Elizabeth_P, Apr 2024
    The afternoon tea bus tour in Dublin was a wonderful experience. My daughter and I took this tour when we first arrived in Dublin. It was everything we had hoped for. The staff Leah, Adam and Sarah were very friendly and knowledgeable about Dublin. They made the tour enjoyable. We love high teas and this tour was a lot of fun. The food was great and I’m still using the take away cup. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Dublin. You will not be disappointed!
    A Fun and Tasty Way to see Dublin
    Leah_C, Apr 2024
    Daniel, Hannah, Nadine & Paddy were perfect! It was semi-guided, and their guiding was so informational (and at times, entertaining), I wish they would've shared more! Food and tea were great!
    A Must do for a Dublin visit
    Sharon_S, Apr 2024
    We were in Dublin for the day and my husband, son and I did the Vintage tea bus tour. Highly recommend it! It was a fun day for all of us and a great way to experience the city and enjoy tea and delicious food.
    So much fun!!!!
    pattyjane13, Apr 2024
    We really loved driving around and seeing all the great sites. The food was awesome. We will definitely do this again!!!
    Don't trust your booking even after you have paid for it!
    Rachel_E, Apr 2024
    We had travelled 2 hours to get to the bus and had took the day off work only to be told when we got there that they hadn't got our booking after taking our money and sending us our tickets. And then to be told there's nothing they can do about it only try fit us in on another day.
    Loved this experience!
    Ramona_H, Apr 2024
