Rita is an airstream that we have lovingly branded with the iconic Vintage Tea Trips colours and characters.
On board we have the ability to serve toasties, wraps, sweet treats and of course – Afternoon Tea Boxes. You can choose as much or as little as you like to suit your events needs.
We will of course have tea as well as barista coffee made with beans from Upside Coffee Roasters who are also based in Dublin.
Rita is available for private hire like weddings and corporate events as well as festivals, country shows, food markets and so much more.

“We booked a private tour with Vintage Tea Trips while we had some visitors over to Glanbia from the United States. We chose the tour as we wanted to give our visitors a chance to see Dublin in a unique way. We were picked up from our hotel and brought around Dublin on board a beautiful vintage bus. The food was delicious and staff were super friendly and informative. They were attentive to our every need. It was a lovely and different way to spend an evening with our visitors who really enjoyed and appreciated a unique experience while in Dublin. ” — Therese Lowry, Executive Assistant – Glanbia, Plc

“We had an absolutely fantastic trip today – all our members had a wonderful time and will be talking about the trip for a long time to come. Our two hosts and driver were brilliant and couldn’t do enough to ensure we all had a memorable outing. Everything from the food, the commentary, the trivia and generally banter was wonderful. Many thanks to Sandra for all her support in getting the event off the ground. Hopefully we will be in touch again in the near future to organise another trip for the members of our centre who didn’t get to go this time.” — Debbie Doyle, Training Officer – St. Michael’s House

“We organised the Vintage Tea Trip Experience as a networking & educational opportunity for a group of tourism & hospitality professionals in Ireland. The feedback has been wonderful to date and all attendees enjoyed the tour around Dublin while sampling the new Afternoon Tea menu on the bus. Ciara was a pleasure to work with in the run up to day and the tour guides & driver were very helpful and hospitable. No doubt, each guest who attended will promote the Vintage Tea Trip to their clients as an activity which can be incorporated into a corporate event/incentive trip/leisure based tour etc. We arranged a brief stop-off in the Phoenix Park to stretch the legs & the sun shone which was a bonus. A big thank you again to all involved!” — Alison Behan, Secretary for SITE Young Leaders Ireland & Senior Sales Manager for Merrion Hotel

“Having recently booked both of Vintage Tea Trip’s buses for a recent corporate event I could not recommend them highly enough. We were a group of International guests totalling 55 and the attention given to each person on both buses was absolutely outstanding thanks to the super staff. The tour was relaxed and informative which was greatly needed after a day of meetings and presentations, the tea/coffee and desert served on-board was also a god send. The whole team were extremely accommodating, from collection at our offices to an ad-hoc stop on Merrion Square for a team photo nothing was out of the question! Each guest being able to take the re-usable coffee mug from the tour was the absolute icing on the cake and everybody left the buses smiling” — Robert Dunne, Marketing Coordinator – Mercedes-Benz Commercial Vehicles Ireland

“I booked a private afternoon tea tour for a group of members of my alumni association. This event was certainly one of the highlights of our Dublin visit. The tea and cakes/sandwiches were delicious, plenty and served with style, the guide extremely knowledgeable and above all great fun. That she spoke our language – we are Swiss – was an added bonus. We would do it again – with pleasure – and would recommend it. ” — Christine Markun Braschler, Vice-President Alumni Hottingen VEKH Zürich Switzerland

“I booked the Vintage Tea Trips for my best friends hen party and we had an amazing time. The team were able to customise our route to make sure we passed places that were significant to the bride to be, they also incorporated some of their own tour and details about the soon to be couple that I had told them before. They were very accommodating for people with dietary requirements and there was plenty of food and tea for everyone! The bus itself is stunning – a perfect girly activity”. – Louise Cooney, www.louisecooney.com

“We used the vintage tea trips bus as part of an internal company engagement day and it went down a treat. It was something different yet easy to organise, and created a really memorable experience for our teams. We got fantastic feedback from the experience, and that’s truly what it was – a great experience. The team on board couldn’t have been more welcoming and we wouldn’t hesitate to go back again.” – Claire Taaffe, Communications Director, GSK.

“We hired the bus to transfer our international team in a fun and informative way. It did the job very nicely. The team on board – Emma hosting and Robert driving – were so friendly and helpful it made for a great time for all. The bus is the real deal, beautifully finished and the food offering was excellent. The choice of different teas and coffees weren’t expected but appreciated. The icing on the cake was being able to take the very nice reusable cups with us at the end! Brilliant all round, thank you VTT.” – David Nixon, LinkedIn.
