Really lovely thing to do for the afternoon, great way to see parts of Glasgow. The afternoon tea was delicious, there was a lovely selection of cakes and we chose the gin cocktails which came in a really cute glass teapot. The girls on board were lovely, really friendly and helpful and made everyone feel relaxed. Would definitely recommend.

The tea was lovely, staff were great and we really enjoyed the tour. There wasn’t a lot of room at the table, as we expected, but we were on the top floor right at the front so had a good view which made up for it!

The selection of sandwiches and desserts was exceptional and surprisingly filling. The added drinks package is worth it! We tried Glasgow gin in a mixed drink and it was delicious. Best idea to do if you’re a foodie and also want to see significant landmarks of Glasgow!

Great people and great food but the music and mic were up way way too loud! Please turn it down! Could not understand anything due to noise level.

HeidiC57

This was an amazing tour, food was excellent, music was good and tour was very informative and had a lot of humor. We were a group of 4 and we all said it was a highlight of our cruise. Would highly recommend this tour.

Sarah_M

I enjoyed the food and the people were very friendly. The bus itself was rather loud (sounded like it needed a brake job) and bumpy. I also would've enjoyed more details regarding the things we were seeing, not much information was given.

SWCJS

This afternoon tea on a bus was amazing! Danielle was a brilliant compare and had us all in stitches! I was very intrigued to see how easy it was to eat when the bus was moving! It was no problem at all. The food was very good and the organisation of getting the drinks and food to us was well sorted. I am looking forward to doing one in London too now! I can highly recommend this trip and if you get Danielle as a compare you definitely won’t be disappointed
