Guided Afternoon Tea Tour -Harrogate

Afternoon Tea Tour details

2 hours | 5 to 30 people | £27pp

There’s no better place to enjoy an afternoon tea than in Harrogate. This Victorian tradition has long been a key event in the town’s calendar. Our private tour experience blends past with present to give you an afternoon tea with a difference.

Led by one of our local guides, your tour will start with a stroll around the town’s cultural centre. Walking at a relaxed pace, you’ll discover why afternoon teas were a big part of Victorians’ social life in Harrogate.

Then, it is on to the main part of your Afternoon Tea Tour at the Palm Court Café. You’ll sip on Yorkshire Tea, while you brush up on your afternoon tea etiquette. Next, you’ll indulge in homemade scones, sandwiches and cake with more tea, of course.

If you’re a group of five or more, why not enjoy a private afternoon tea with a little extra Harrogate style? Perfect for birthday parties, coach trips and family gatherings.
