New Dublin city tour lets you enjoy a vintage tea party while seeing the sights

If you can't go sixty minutes without a refreshing cup of tea, then have we got the excursion for you. A brand new Dublin City bus tour is offering passengers the chance to enjoy some of the city’s well-known sights... whilst comfortably perched in a vintage double decker Routemaster bus named Pauline and scoffing cream cakes. The idea is the brainchild of entrepreneur (and woman after our own heart) Karen Nixon, who fell in love with the romance and fun of being chauffeured in a double decker bus... so much so that she bought a bus and named it after her 'fierce and fabulous' grandmother! The tour will run three times a day: 11am, 1.15pm and 3.30pm and tickets start from €40. The trip travels through the city taking in the Phoenix Park, St. Patrick’s Cathedral, Christ Church, Wood Quay, O’Connell Street, Trinity College, Georgian Dublin, St. Stephens Green and more and passengers will be in the safe hands of Driver Bob and the on-board Vintage Tea Tours Team who will share some interesting and juicy “need to know” facts about Dublin, its sights and of course the loveable Pauline. All of this can be enjoyed while spooning vanilla panna cotta with forest berry compote and Guinness brownie into your mouth, with treats prepared daily by Italian fine dining chef Donato Romano. Now that's our kind of sightseeing. For more information on Vintage Tea Tours and to book a jaunt, click here.
