What Can I Expect

All aboard for the Gin Afternoon Tea Bus Tour! A little gin-soaked adventure around central London onboard a vintage double decker bus with afternoon tea and G&Ts served at your table. What's not to love?!

You can hop on the Gin Bus at London's Victoria Station or Trafalgar Square. Every passenger is allocated a seat at a table on either the top or bottom deck of this traditional Routemaster London bus. And this is where the fun begins.

Leading Gin brand Bombay Sapphire has teamed up with the renowned Brigit's Bakery for these fun and fabulous gin-themed afternoon tea bus tours. That means you will be tucking into really delicious, delicate and tasty cakes, tarts and treats, all served with thirst-quenching G&Ts.

Of course, this isn't rush hour and it's not your daily commute. So your bus will be taking it at a tourist pace (you wouldn't want to spill your G&T would you!) as you journey through the capital, spotting lots of sights as you go. There's onboard commentary as well, so you won't miss any of those landmarks whilst you're enjoying your afternoon tea and gin.

Lasting around one and a half hours, these gin afternoon tea bus tours may not be the fastest way to get from A to B and back again in London, but they're definitely the most tasty and fun!
