The 4 Best Glasgow Tea Tours

1.Glasgow Afternoon Tea Experience

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 735 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $61Our pick

Board a vintage Routemaster at Shuttle Street for 70 to 90 minutes of afternoon tea, Glasgow sightseeing, tea, coffee, sandwiches, scones, cakes, and music. Helen and the bus team keep the mood lively, but this is a dining ride, not a fully narrated city tour. Expect shared tables and no onboard toilet.

“Food was good and plentiful (like pictured) but there was no commentary. The description notes places we would pass by but idk if we did because they are not even pointed out. We expected more of a tour atmosphere and to get to know the city.”
