After a short introduction and brief about what to expect, we start our journey. This is a tour for all your senses: hear the stories from your guide, see Brighton and smell, touch and taste your afternoon tea,

Our Brighton afternoon tea tour brings you to the heart of the old centre and just outside (either Hove or Kemptown). You will see all the major landmarks (examples are in the itinerary, but can change) and finish with a full afternoon tea in a great setting.

We will make stops for photos anywhere you would like to stop.

Stop 2 Pass by

Today the Brighton Dome is a place for art lovers and those interested in music, theatre, creative workshops and exhibitions. But once upon a time, it had a very different function. Join us to find out more. From there we make our way to the North Laine through the Pavilion Gardens and Royal Pavillion.

It is hard not to see our very own 'Taj Mahal' style palace as it dominates the central city. Don't forget to bring your camera so you can feel like like a royal in front of it! This is just past the Pavilion Gardens on our way to the North Laine.

Stop 4 Pass by

Welcome to the former Brighton slum area with a lot of arts & crafts, small independent shops and lots of colours. Get your camera ready!

Stop 5 Pass by

After we have left the Laines, we cross the main street that divides this area and the southern part of Brighton. There you will discover the origins of our city and wander around the little alleyways with cute shops.

One of the main attractions in Brighton is the Brighton Pier. This is the place to be if you want to go for a ride or see Brighton from a different angle. If time allows, we will get you to our most famous landmark!

Kemptown is the more alternative and arty place where many artists love to hang out. The area has quirky shops and cute cafes.
