Overview

Many travelers use the London Underground just to get around—but this tour reveals a hidden side to it. Explore Aldwych’s disused Edwardian station, including its original ticket hall and platforms, and learn how it became a shelter during World War II and a storage site during the Blitz. It’s a rare chance to step into a preserved piece of London’s underground history that most visitors miss out on.
