London Zoo is launching Tours and Teas, a brand new series of guided tours followed by afternoon tea at the Regents Park zoo.
Featuring a different theme each month, Tours and Teas guests will get the chance to explore in a private group and learn more about the behind-the-scenes of the conservation zoo.
Led by one of London Zoo’s guides, guests will stroll along the 30-minute-long tour while learning about some stories behind the Zoo’s 200-year history, the specially selected flora, and a tour dedicated to the conservation work ZSL do across the world.
After the tour, guests can then sit down for a cream tea of homemade earl grey infused scones served with Devon clotted cream, strawberry jam, and a pot of English Breakfast tea.
Launching on 2nd November, monthly tours are available to book and feature a different tour on the first Tuesday of the month outside of school holidays, at 1.30pm, for £28 per person excluding Zoo admission.
Four tours have been created:
- Welcome to ZSL London Zoo Tour
- ZSL History Tour
- Conservation Tour
- Botanical Tour
Details are here.
Well now, to coin a phrase: that takes the biscuit.
Holding by the Devonian cream then jam on the scone practicality, I’ve never come across a tea-infused scone. It’s gotta be them wot lives up Lunnon n their fancy~pants ways.
