Can you imagine enjoying afternoon tea with the best views of Edinburgh Castle? This is a British tradition that should not be missed in the Scottish capital!

Activity Details

For an authentic British experience, having afternoon tea with views of Edinburgh Castle is truly unforgettable. At the specified time, we will meet at 145 Princes Street to commence an experience that showcases one of the UK's finest traditions.

Once everyone is gathered, we'll proceed to a historic Edinburgh tearoom, where we will escort you to a table providing one of the best views in the city. Edinburgh Castle will be prominently in your sight!

This carefully designed and charming lounge ranks among the most popular spots in the city for an afternoon tea, essential for enthusiasts of tea, history, and gastronomy.

Afternoon tea is among the most cherished British traditions, featuring a selection of sweet and savoury treats, served on a three-tiered tray. On the day of the activity, participants may choose between a sweet or savoury tray, based on preference, along with a drink of choice from ten types of tea sourced from different regions around the world, or coffee. The selection includes sandwiches, scones, cakes, and pastries.

Additionally, during the experience, we will share intriguing facts about afternoon tea, such as commonly used ingredients, the origins of this tradition, and its evolution from a luxurious meal into a true national symbol.

After 1.5 hours, with delightful memories and flavors, we will conclude our time at the tearoom and bid farewell at the meeting point.
