Destinations: High Tea Around the World

Since I embarked on my first global adventure 8 years ago, traveling has been one of my greatest joys. Exploring new places, cultures, and traditions is a passion I love to share—and what better way to experience a destination than through its high tea offerings?

High tea is more than just a meal; it’s a celebration of flavors, history, and connection. Whether you’re sipping tea in a sunlit garden or indulging in finger sandwiches at a grand hotel, every country has its own unique take on this timeless tradition.

Traveling with a love for high tea does take some planning—finding the perfect tea room, sampling regional delights, and embracing local tea culture. But rest assured, no destination is beyond reach for a tea lover like me. I’ve made it my mission to uncover the best high tea spots across the globe, from bustling cities to serene countryside retreats.

Each guide features my personal experiences, recommendations, and tips to help you enjoy the ultimate high tea experience. If you don’t see your dream destination here, feel free to email me at annie@annieshighteas.com—I’m always discovering new places and would love to share suggestions with you.
