If you, or anyone else, wants a good very cheap sightseeing bus tour I recommend Megabus’s one. They’re open top buses, with good commentary (only in English, so only wouldn’t recommend for those who want/need a foreign language commentary). 2 hours long. I’ve lived day-trip distance from London all my life, so been many times, but there were things in the commentary I didn’t know before. I only paid £2 (the lowest price including booking fee), booking a couple of days before. (I lost a small bit of the tour due to a road closure, but obviously no fault of Megabus, and at that price...) 3 choices of start location (you end at the same place you start at (it’s non stop)).
GUYS! Try swirling the jam and clotted cream together next time you have a cream tea. Not only is it delicious, but the flames you will receive in the comments will keep you warm all winter. Bonus points for switching between pronunciations of "scone". Better yet, just use a rock cake instead!
@@Ba-pb8ul They see me swirlin', They hatin', They know in their hearts that the best way is swirly. Make your cream and jam so swirly, Make your cream and jam so swirly, Can't you see my jam is swirly? Look at it, it is so swirly!
Swirling? That's nothing. I like to fry my scones in butter and then smear them with peanut-butter and douse them in cinnamon. Try it just once before you lynch me.
I lived in London for 6 months earlier this year and I used to see those afternoon tea buses go by all the time - it looked so fun! Makes me miss the UK
London is such an easy place to visit if you speak english, and it is not a lot of different from what people from Japan or the US might be used to. It is one of the most tourist friendly city in Europe. GREAT FOR VACATION TOO. Left there recently, definitely would recommend.
@@jaluriaja6294 Mine wasn’t even a planned vacation, I made profits from an investment so I decided to take myself out, toured around London and dined at some of their top restaurants such as The Araki, and Dinner by Heston to name a few. I really enjoyed myself there, you should definitely try it too.

Notting Hill was famous in its own right long before that soppy Richard Curtis movie came along! It was the heart of Caribbean culture in London since the 1950s, hence the carnival connection. And more recently, it was and probably still is home to a shop called the Music and Video Exchange, which in the pre-digital days was renowned as the place that would buy literally any piece of secondhand music from you - any piece of vinyl, cassette or video tape. As a result, you could find pretty much any music there. Most Londoners of a certain age will have whiled away a few weekend afternoons flicking through some of their thousands of crates of second hand records...
Welcome back to my wonderful city! You must do ‘proper’ afternoon tea at one of the big hotels some time. The Ritz is the most famous one, but it’s very touristy and you feel a bit like cattle. Browns do a really good one, so do Claridges. It’s expensive, but unlimited. Don’t eat all day before you go, then make the most of it! One for next time you’re here perhaps.
Wouldn't say it's wonderful anymore. It was the best city in the world but now it's a breeding ground for criminals. Even the centre of London is Only a tiny bit safe. And that's saying something.
Tea at the Pump Rooms in the City of Bath. Georgian surroundings , string quartet or pianist playing. Just don’t drink the spa water. Unless sulphur is your thing🤣!
The bottomless bubbles afternoon tea at The Library Lounge is the best value afternoon tea in lovely surroundings with a view of the Palace of Westminster and Big Ben. The staff are super lovely too. A must try :-) Lovely to see you back in the U.K.!
Go to Carnival. I know a super safe place under the watchfull eyes of the cops and there's even a place to shelter from the rain. I've never encountered any "trouble" in over 15 years.
yay! i'm glad you guys did the tea bus tour :D i did it with my MIL when her and my FIL came to visit in september. so much fun!! now i'm gearing up for my moms visit and that day is rapidly coming.
When I read "afternoon tea in London" I thought, oh ohh, the comments section will be inundated with lectures on tea etiquette from the Brits and I was right LOL. Great video guys.
If you are going to see a carnival in the UK then you should go to Bridgwater Carnival in Somerset. It takes place on the first saturday of November every year. It's way better than Notting Hill Carnival and a lot less dangerous.
I used to drive local buses in London and I think I may have driven the bus that you were on for afternoon tea. Now I am in and out of Victoria coach station all the time now as I drive the coaches.
Have you been to Greenwich yet? Go there by Monorail (DLR) Get off at the Cutty Sark, lots of places to see go past Asgard in Thor! go up the hill for the best view of London and stand on the International Dateline with a foot in each hemisphere, lots of pubs too
1:42 The official name of the tower (in which the Big Ben the bell is located in), is called the Queen Elizabeth Tower. It was originally called the Clock Tower, but in 2012 it was renamed to mark the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II.
RML2546 is a 1966 AEC Routemaster (RML is the slightly longer version of the RM). They must drive very slowly and gently so you don't end up wearing your tea! Looks like fun though. 😎
The German market starts soon in Birmingham if your still around.. Also check out the Black Country museum... mine tour on the barge is also available next door plus Dudley zoo is right near by 👍🏻
I’m so happy they did this review. As I do my research for London I just clicked on tea in London and found this review. I booked tix in feb for the @brigitbakery afternoon tea for my upcoming birthday trip to London. I look forward to doing it after seeing this. Thanks.
If you liked Brewdog and you’re ever back in Scotland and happen to be in Aberdeen/Aberdeenshire, you should pop into the Brewery for a tour and some good food! 😁
I know this is an older video but I rewatch, anyway I have been to the 5 Below in Las Vegas. It was a blast with the right crowd. There was a group of crazy guys dressed in shorts, muscle T-shirts and flip flops. Hilarious!
Living in England as I do I get a lot of friends and ex colleagues visiting who want to ‘do London’ with me guiding. This is a great idea 2 hits in one. High tea and bus top tour. I’m in for the next visitors. Thanks for the vid and the idea.
My pumpkin heads!! The lease come to Maine .. Damn girl you are gonna see some beauty and eat some great food!! Maine is complicated you need a local to show you around!! I’m watching your older stuff cause you all make me 😃 happy!!

U guys are awesome.
Thanks for helping me planning my trip yeahh
Good heavens. I do declare that's a genuine big six-wheeler scarlet-painted London transport diesel-engined 97-horsepower omnibus.

The 'cream salmon pancake thing' was a blini!
And please work on pronunciation of salmon.....please don't make me explain why
Ohhhhh such a fun experience
Loved your accent, Alison - 'I'm ready sir, let's go'. Careful. You're becoming one of us!
That is beyond cool! What a great idea!! Must love the Brits!!!
Love your respectful enthusiasm!
This is more my style: Afternoon Tea while taking a Double Decker bus tour. Two in one deal. Lovely.
Im British and I've never had afternoon tea looks lovely glad you enjoyed it
Excellent photography, fun and larks.
Love this way of doing tea in London. Epic photos and video.
O.m.g. that bus tour is a MUST!! 😍
I do love when you guys come to the UK :)
The scone,clotted cream and jam-very British ☺️glad u enjoyed
GUYS! Try swirling the jam and clotted cream together next time you have a cream tea. Not only is it delicious, but the flames you will receive in the comments will keep you warm all winter.
Bonus points for switching between pronunciations of "scone". Better yet, just use a rock cake instead!
Lol
Dont do this. Cream first, then jam
@@Ba-pb8ul
They see me swirlin',
They hatin',
They know in their hearts that the best way is swirly.
Make your cream and jam so swirly,
Make your cream and jam so swirly,
Can't you see my jam is swirly?
Look at it, it is so swirly!
@@GMRay739 This is wrong. Stuie isn't a gentleman, or a true Englishman, clearly. He's been corrupted - speak to your local MP
Swirling? That's nothing. I like to fry my scones in butter and then smear them with peanut-butter and douse them in cinnamon. Try it just once before you lynch me.
Great video as always. Regards to you both from the UK.
That "red picture" turned out magnificent!
Happy thanksgiving guys love that your back in the UK enjoy for all of us! Love from Tennessee
I lived in London for 6 months earlier this year and I used to see those afternoon tea buses go by all the time - it looked so fun! Makes me miss the UK

@@steffan683 That’s great to hear glad you enjoyed you visit, you mentioned about an investments, pls could you tell me more about that?
The lone, sad looking cucumber slice left to rot. So sad.
O M G. I'm so glad you did this. It's on my bucket list!!!!
Well as a Scott who worked in London a few days a week for a few years, I advise you to make sure your bucket is full of money.😊😒

Kevin Hickman Those places are an experience, but the cakes are a bit too fancy patisserie style in my opinion. Prefer more trad cake.
Wouldn't say it's wonderful anymore. It was the best city in the world but now it's a breeding ground for criminals. Even the centre of London is Only a tiny bit safe. And that's saying something.
They do a nice Cream tea at the Cooden Bay hotel in Cooden Bay East Sussex. Between Normans Bay and Bexhill.
Tea at the Pump Rooms in the City of Bath. Georgian surroundings , string quartet or pianist playing. Just don’t drink the spa water. Unless sulphur is your thing🤣!
You two eat really well! Enjoy being young and thank you for sharing your travels and food!!!

Bus tour looks like a great way to tour. Fun video. Thanks
Thanks for that mate! Thoroughly enjoyed that, splendid!!!
Wooooah I literally just passed by that bus an hour ago and was wondering if it served good afternoon tea! Small world!
After watching your videos of your trips to UK my sister and I are now planning a month long vacation in the UK so thank you and Happy Thanksgiving!🦃🍁
You will be very welcome! I hope you get the opportunity to get beyond London 👍
Thank you Paul’s! We are actually going to spend the bulk of our stay in the North of England😊
Marvellous news, do try to check out the cities of York and Lincoln.
@@maryg124 brilliant! I'm in Yorkshire, if there's anything i can help with re advice in anyway just give me a shout
@@jobrimar8291 agree, chester is lovely too
Love the photo! I was at the ice bar in London about 5 years ago!
Yay! New upload.I'm at work right now, but planning what snack I'll have with my cup of tea when I settle in to watch this when I get home :)
Hope you Enjoy your time in Scotland
I love that you guys keep coming back to the UK. You're both so likeable. Safe travels x
You two are just so enjoyable to watch xx
i'm a londoner and have never heard of this lol but that's the great thing about london...so many weird and wonderful things in this city.
Loving that your loving us Brits
Oh we loved this! Such fun
I remember watching the movie Notting Hill in the Notting Hill cinema. This afternoon tea on a bus is a great idea.
Oh how fun..you two are great..I enjoy your videos
That was lovely how much was this tour . This was an excellent video I am going to plan this tour when I visit England
This just might be the most fun, enjoyable tip you have ever shared!👍👍
That’s a great coat Allison:)
Keep Travel Vlogging. I love you guys!
When I spotted the roast beef it was what I would have chosen!
Closest thing I've done to an ice bar was an an outdoor Xmas market - bloody freezing! Give me a warm pub anytime!
Notting Hill was where Jimi Hendrix OD'd, other musicians/groups have lived in the area too (Blur, the clash). I am really enjoying your videos folks!
That British accent is awesome
Good to see you put the cream on before the jam!!
OMG BREWDOG
They've got loads of bars around the country, you should try others if you find some!
Thank you for the video. Just booked spots for my daughter and I; April 2023.
awesome ice bar and a bus tour. Loved it!
What a fun was to see London!
That smoked salmon thing was a bilini
I did that tea/bus tour a few years ago. So fun!
Great video welcome back to the UK, love you guys
Don't go to the Notting Hill Carnival - it's a nightmare.
Go to Carnival. I know a super safe place under the watchfull eyes of the cops and there's even a place to shelter from the rain. I've never encountered any "trouble" in over 15 years.
I khan't see the error. 😂😂😂
Do go. Biggest carnival in Europe.
the music and food is great it just gets waaay too busy nowadays though
@Catfish Billy Sure, London of the 2010's.
yay! i'm glad you guys did the tea bus tour :D i did it with my MIL when her and my FIL came to visit in september. so much fun!! now i'm gearing up for my moms visit and that day is rapidly coming.
Brewdog bars are brilliant. Always a great selection of drinks and food available.
When I read "afternoon tea in London" I thought, oh ohh, the comments section will be inundated with lectures on tea etiquette from the Brits and I was right LOL. Great video guys.
London looks like a fun city!!
Great vlog loved the london bus afternoon tea x
Thank you for this tip! We did the afternoon tea tour today and we had a lot of fun! Greetings from the Two sisters from the netherlands

Can't believe you guys are back in the UK again so soon! Hope you're having a great time, we're so pleased to have you back
I hope this bus is still serving afternoon tea in 2021 when I hope to be in London! 🤞🤞

Imagine this in NYC?
I'm hoping to do that bus tour when I'm in London next month! Thanks for sharing.
