Tea Around Town

 

On a cold November afternoon, Me and my best friend  decided  to do something different  and take a trip into the city. 

I kept seeing  these adverisements on Facebook and Instagram. The ad was of this two tier pink bus with a teacup and flowers painted on the side of it. Where anyone can buy a ticket and sip “high tea” The bus would gake you on a tour of Manhattan while you could drink selections of tea, pastries, and little finger sandwiches, there was someone singing music and it was just such a nice idea i knew this was something we had to go check out.  

 

We arrived at the bus stop and there was the big pink shuttle bus. The outside of the bus was exactly how it as advertised but was even nicer seeing it up close. We got to see all of the details in the art and different tones of the flowers painted on it. Our ticket was scanned by the concierge. He had a basket filled with decoareted flowers.  I was handed a rose that had our table number attached to it. As soon as we had or flower in hand we then escorted into the shuttle to the second floor and that is where our tea party began.

The theme on the bus was winter wonderland. It was decorated so classy and it was such a magical feeling from the moment we stepped on the shuttle.

Once seated in our designated place, the tea expert then greated us and let us know that our package also included champagne and started us off with our first cup of hibiscus tea. Some people choose just the tea package and some had the option of tea and cahmpagne. No matter what option your choose,  all of the pastries, deviled eggs, cucumber finger sandwiches and maccaroons will be  included in both packages that are available for purchase. 

   After our greeting and introduction from our selected tea expert, the shuttle ride began. When the bus was in motion one of the tea servers started to sing cover songs and her voice was pleasent and she sounded angelic. She would do this throughout our whole tour while we were driving to each new destintion. We got to see all the major sites and hear about the history of the archituretue of the landmarks in new York city.

 As we went from each land mark to admire,  the tea expert  would continue to offer us a new blend of tea or the same flavor we already had. It is whatever you prefer.  

As we approached our last stop before the ride was over or tea expert poured us a nice full glass of champagne and we did a little toast to the best tea party we ever went to. 

​Overall, the experience  with tea around town was amazing with my best friend Gia.  Seeing New York all ready for christimas and Winter was something special. Instead of walking around seeing the sights. You get to see it on a bus while enjoying everything around you. You get to experience New York city a different way.

I liked that all the families, friends, and people of all ages can enjoy tea around town and make memories with their love ones. I would highly  recommend  you experience this in New York city and enjoy it in another way. It is definately a once in lifetime thing to do. You can find them on Instagram and facebook. Then, book your tea time. I Hope all of you try this experience out and enjoy every little bit of it.
