5.00I had the privilege of getting to take my lovely mother on the Twinkling Lights Trip with Vintage Tea Tours. We were very well looked after by the brilliant staff members (we can only remember Asa and Anna by name, sorry!) and the entire trip was not only very informative but also incredibly beautiful. It was such a unique experience to get to be a part of and we have nothing but good things to say about it. Thank you for having us! Love from New Zealand 💛
magical, memorable, and full of heart. 🎄✨

5.00We recently did the Vintage Tea Trips Dublin – Christmas Twinkling Lights Trip, and it was absolutely amazing from start to finish. The Christmas vibes were unreal — magical lights, festive atmosphere, and such a cozy, joyful experience. It was the perfect way to get into the Christmas spirit, especially as a family. The staff truly made the trip unforgettable. Nicole, Anna, Alek, and Paddy were all fantastic — so friendly, welcoming, and great with the kids. You can really tell they love what they do, and that energy carries through the whole experience. We brought our kids, aged 8 and 3, and they absolutely loved it. From the decorations to the music and treats, it kept them engaged the entire time. They’re already asking when we can do it again, which says it all! This trip is perfect for both tourists and locals looking for something special and festive to do in Dublin. Whether you’re visiting the city or have lived here your whole life, this is a must-do Christmas experience. We can’t recommend Vintage Tea Trips enough — magical, memorable, and full of heart. 🎄✨
Fun Christmas experience for the whole family.

5.00Adam was delightful as well as the driver and other staff ( cannot recall names). Everyone went out of their way to make people comfortable and welcomed. The scones were hot and the desserts were tasty. We even celebrated two birthdays! Pleasent way to view the Christmas lights while enjoying a cup or two of tea.
