The Atlantic Lorea High Tea Bus takes you along some of Cape Town’s most breathtaking coastal routes, all while you enjoy a selection of savoury and sweet treats paired with a variety of teas.

“This was genuinely my favourite thing to do with my parents on this trip. Dressing up, seeing Cape Town in such a unique way… I have no words,” she said.

Follow along to see what they get up to next!
