This was an excellent way to have a team bonding and birthday with friends and colleague. We learned so much about the city and at the same time enjoyed the 5T provided as well as all of the finger foods. I would give five star out of five star for the food and the service Staff went above and beyond.

We were really looking forward to a different type of tea outing. Arrived at the pickup spot early as indicated, stood out in the cold waiting for the bus, but no bus ever showed. There was no number we could call to find out if the bus was delayed or if the tour was cancelled. Checked email and there was a message about a refund being processed that was sent to us at the time our tour was supposed to begin. No contact that they were cancelling the tour, no one reaching out to ask if we wanted to reschedule (although with not contacting us prior to arrival, why would we want to risk wasting another afternoon on this), only an email that we would be refunded. This company has zero customer service. We had coordinated to take vacation time from work to enjoy the afternoon going on this tour. Now all we can do is tell everyone not to waste their time or money as they may get cancelled on last minute.

Bus arrived an hour late with absolutely no explanation. Our time slot was 3pm and we all stood for an hour, until 4pm. Some of us got there early so stood there waiting for even longer. Once we got in the bus, the hostess told us to sit at a table that people were already sitting at. She told them they were in the wrong seat and asked them to move.. but our food had already been touched. The table was dirty with frosting and open sugar packets. Then we received three one ounce sips of tea during the entire duration of the trip. For $200 you would expect a lot more. Also, since the bus was so late, it was dark out for more than half the ride, so taking pictures of the buildings / sites wasn’t possible.

Just okay, customer service needs work. The bus is really cute and the cup is cute! The tea is disappointing as others mentioned. Our tea was hot, very hot, but definitely minimal, 2 gulps per person. No honey/sugar/cream for the tea either, but the sample was so small I guess it wouldn't be worth it. The food was just okay, some better than others but nothing memorable. The options of tea were not what was on the website and our tower did not have the salmon that was on the site as well. The staff on the bus were great though, we didn't get much singing or entertainment though, besides sing happy birthday as a group to a few people. My 2 friends were not allowed to board due to their tower of food falling en route to the pick up spot. No one called them or texted to say anything. I agree with the other review that a better process for playing the towers should be considered. Anyone that caters food knows you have extra food on hand, but I guess they don't here. My 2 friends were only offered a partial refund for an experience they never got and was in no way their fault. The customer service dropped the ball and left a poor taste in my mouth. The stars I left were for my experience but my friends experience is just outlandish and should have been handled better. I hope it improves but it's a great concept if executed better.

We booked this a few months ago for the moms and the girls, and they were very excited. We drove an hour and parked and they were walking to the bus and we received a text saying it's cancelled, 30 minutes before it was supposed to depart. No call just some basic text saying cancelled. I called and they really had nothing today, besides you will your money back in 10 business days and they were rude. Don't waste your money with these people and especially your time, they have zero regard for their customers,

Had a great time on the tour bus. The singing entertainment was a nice addition to the tour and made it feel much more special. If you've been on any other tour in Chicago you'll for the most part hear the usual factoids; but, with the interspersed songs and snacks/tea/decor, it felt much nicer. They mentioned they would be updating the decor/menu/tour/songs for the holidays which sounds nice. Too bad we won't be in Chicago for that season to see it.

Great idea to tour a metropolitan city while doing high tea! Beautifully designed bus and assigned seating. Please don’t give up on this idea but there were several things that could have been done better. 1/ Pick up location was under construction and road was closed for a while. They could have placed an “update” on website regards to where/how will they pick up, which was further down the hill. 2/ Beautifully presented finger sandwiches, scones with butter and deserts. Finger sandwiches were dried due to being exposed to air too long. Strongly recommend doing these arrangements in last minute, rather than for hours ahead of time. 3/ Tea Service- This was/is the MOST disappointing part. Tea service was extremely SLOW. One of the employees serves the tea. She stops by and chats and then fills up may be 1/10th of the cup. It took 20-25 min to get a first sip of tea in a 90 min tour. There were 4 types of tea and none of them were the classical sense of tea (no black tea?) No accommodations for children. We ate almost majority of the snacks without tea. The thermos she served the tea was NOT enough for the people on the bus. She ran out if it and went to fill it up again. Additionally, despite tea having great smell- it HAD NO TASTE. I strongly recommend actually partnering with a tea expert guys. Very likely you are not keeping the tea leaves (bags??)) long enough before serving. It all tasted HOT WATER with great smell. 4/ Leila- announcer/guide had great voice. Oh my god she sings live!!! We were on thr 3rd song when we realized this. Having said that her skillset as a guide needs to improve. Very minimal actually information. Please improve on this. 5/Driver Miguel was awesome. Not a single unexpected break, no shift change, no acceleration accidents. He was PERFECT in Chicago traffic. Overall it was an ok experience. Our kids left bus hungry, didn’t like sandwiches, only ate cakepops. Couldn’t drink any tea. Would we ever do this or recommend this to anyone we know again- likely NO. Too expensive for hot water and dry finger sandwiches despite live singing.

I waited a few days before writing this because I wanted to be fair. The idea is cute and unique, but the experience didn’t live up to expectations. My husband knew more Chicago facts than the tour guide, and the information shared was generic—nothing you couldn’t find online. The setup was charming and feminine, and the food was pretty good. But as a tea lover, I was disappointed. The “tea tasting” came in a small plastic souvenir cup with barely an ounce of tea per pour, while others got much more. When I asked for a little extra to enjoy with dessert, I was told no. There was no tea or food menu, so I still don’t know which tea I liked best. It’s a nice one-time experience for photos, but not for true afternoon tea fans. I’m glad I paid the discounted price; at full price, I would have rated it lower than three stars.
