Mad Hatter's Afternoon Tea - The Sanderson Hotel

The Sanderson Hotel have been really clever to theme their afternoon tea with the Mad Hatter's tea party. What could be a more popular theme for your afternoon tea?!

It really does bring to life the magic of Alice in Wonderland, and the Sanderson continually update their menu with the season or latest ideas. The garden where you can have your Tea is stunning. The food looks delicious, and with labels of 'Eat me' or 'Drink me', I obviously had to follow instruction!

Jack the Ripper Tour

There are quite a few Jack the Ripper Tours available, and so you need to be careful what you book for - however it is well worth doing.

I was keen to find a historical one, as opposed to anything with theatrical tricks/dress etc. For about 1 hour 45 minutes, you're taken around some of the key locations and your guide informs you of the tragic and gruesome events that took place.

I've left the link of the tour I went on which I would recommend:

Houses of Parliament Tour

Ok, so it is an obvious thing to do, and very touristy, but for some reason when you live in London - you don't do this sort of thing. You can get a Houses of Parliament tour for free by requesting it through your local MP or you can pay for a Saturday guided tour that lasts just over an hour.

I did the latter, and would highly recommend it. The history is incredible to hear about and you see so much; from the Queen's Robing room, to the Central Lobby and of course the Common's Chamber.
