This is the tour for you if you want to see London and have an elegant afternoon tea at the same time – a delicious twist on a British classic. Introduced in the 1840s, afternoon tea is a beloved ritual of sandwiches, cakes, and of course, fine tea. Sweet and savory snacks, a glass of Prosecco, and the best views of London – what's not to love? And, with a menu designed for everyone, all that's left is to choose your vantage point – upper or lower deck.
