Underground Epic – All-Day Tube Tour

London's Underground has a hugely rich and fascinating history, full of quirks, style and remarkable stories. Come with us back to 1863, where we'll show you where the Tube began, before moving through the city both underground and overground to reveal some of its most fascinating features.

We'll explore the service's cultural, historical and architectural relevance, as we point out design details and lesser-known facts. And as it's a private tour, run just for you on the day of your choice, your personal expert can tailor the tour for both train enthusiasts or beginners.

A perfect Christmas gift for anyone looking to do something a little different, and keep warm in winter by exploring the city under shelter.

Highlights include:

  • Deep-level bomb shelters that were built for the public, but kept for the government 
  • Winston Churchill's underground 'burrow', including his bathtub and toilet
  • The tube stations covered with oxblood 
  • The eight-storey skyscraper built for London Transport's headquarters
  • The building and organisation that inspired George Orwell's Ministry of Truth in the novel 1984
  • The Sci-Fi style tube station topped by a giant tulsa coil

For people with a more moderate interest in the subject, our two-hour London Underground Epic Tour may be more up your street. This provides a fascinating overview of the Tube's history and quirks in a fraction of the time.
