Enjoyable instructive tour .

Published on Jan, 2025

Very enjoyable and worthwhile tour. Note you do not get access to ‘ghost’ stations which are disused underground stations but visit the outside of a couple . John was knowledgable and entertaining . Slight difficult accessing the museum morning before the tour in spite of checking with the tour company before hand . Ensure if you choose to visit the museum after the tour you collect a voucher from the tour guide .

Fascinating tours with outstanding guides

Published on Nov, 2023

We were lucky to book two tours in a weekend, one walking Brunel’s Thames Tunnel, the other exploring the disused tunnels under Charing Cross. Both were truly brilliant, extremely well organised and with brilliant guides. Highly recommended but join the mailing list and book early.
