Fantastic experience!...

Tim_C, Aug 2026
Fantastic experience! Great way to see the city while also riding the iconic double decker bus. Food was delicious and service was great!

Nostalgic of all things paddington saw!

The experience itself was phenomenal. Could have been great if each seat had a small fan given how hot it was! Paddington brings all the magic back and takes you through all the highlights of London! Great ride for 90 mins through the heart of London!

The best!

This paddington double decker bus tour and tea party combines two London classics that kids can’t wait to experience! This was truly so much fun and the most adorable theme! Also extremely kind and helpful staff!

Paddington themed Tea Tour of London

Syndi_S, Sep 2025
Best for kids. Too silly for adults alone. They also didn't have a vegetarian menu available at seating, despite their website saying they did. Apparently I was expected to tell them in advance, however, the booking site never asked for a menu choice.
