Tea Tasting and Blending for Four with Alex Probyn - Master Tea Blender

Tea Tasting and Blending for Four with Alex Probyn - Master Tea Blender
A good cup of tea is as much a part of contemporary British culture as a trip to the local curry house. Everyone loves a cuppa, but how much do you actually know about what you're drinking? Has your tea gone through the 'cut, tear, curl' process or the orthodox process? And just what is the difference between black tea and oolong tea? Who better to explain all than Alex Probyn, a master tea blender who has tasted over a million cups of tea... and counting! (Not bad considering that the average person will drink 50,000 cups in their lifetime.) After talking about the history, origin, manufacture and different styles of tea, you'll taste a combination of up to 24 teas, including white, green, oolong, black, herbal and teas of the world. Alex will teach you the art of slurping and spitting (all in the best possible taste) and then you'll get the chance to put your new-found skills into practice by creating your very own blend each to take home with you.

'Phantom of the Opera' Backstage Tour plus Ticket
If you love a bit of West End song and dance then this experience is for you. You'll watch Phantom of the Opera from the best seats in the house - but not before you've had a nose around backstage and seen some of the hard work that goes into the show. Your experience starts with a tour of the backstage areas of Her Majesty's Theatre, one of London's oldest theatres, where you'll be shown round by a trained member of staff. You'll get to see the nitty-gritty of a working theatre and learn about the show and the stars. Then relax in the bar before taking your top-price seat for the performance.

Thames Sightseeing Cruise and The Tower of London for Two
Leave the tube to the stressed-out commuters for a more relaxing way of travelling around London, enjoying the sights on a river cruiser along the Thames. Board a city cruiser and head down the river to Greenwich. The cruise gives you a real insight into the layers of history that have built up along the river, an amazing mixture of the old and the new, with great views of the Houses of Parliament, Tate Modern, St Paul's and many more London landmarks. Any time you want, you can hop off the boat at any one of four piers, go and explore and then hop back on later. Tickets to the Tower of London, the magnificent medieval fortress on the north bank of the Thames by Tower Bridge, are also included in this experience. The Tower is one of London's must-see attractions; teeming with history, it has been a royal residence, a prison and the scene of many executions (no wonder there's so many ghosts...). It's also home to the fabulous Crown Jewels.

You can then make your way to the London Eye where you may have to queue a bit, but it'll certainly be worth it when you climb aboard your (air-conditioned) capsule. The Eye slowly turns, giving you sensational panoramic views across London from 135 metres up. Whether you're new to the capital or a born and bred Londoner, this is a fantastic way to enjoy the sights from two unique perspectives.

Thames Lunch Cruise and London Eye For Four
Should you go on a sight-seeing cruise on the Thames? Or are the views best from the London Eye? Or should you just cut to the chase and have a nice lunch somewhere? With this experience you can do all three. You'll board Bateaux London's river cruiser from the glass pontoon at Embankment Pier. Then relax on board and enjoy a three course lunch with a glass of wine, followed by tea or coffee. But don't let the great food distract you from the fabulous views, as you cruise past the Houses of Parliament, the Tower of London and many more iconic landmarks. After lunch you'll be dropped off just a few steps from the London Eye. You may have to queue a bit here, but it'll certainly be worth it when you climb aboard your air-conditioned capsule. The Eye slowly turns, giving you sensational panoramic views across London from 135 metres up. Whether you're new to the capital or a born and bred Londoner, this is a fantastic way to enjoy the sights from two unique perspectives.
