Having a ride on the London Underground should be on every tourist's itinerary, and this fully-guided tour will take you to see some of the oldest, deepest and most famous London underground stations.

Starting underneath the clock at Paddington station, your guide will take you onto the tube whilst sharing some of the best stories from its 150-year history. You'll learn how it all started, how the different lines used to be owned by rival companies, and how accurate the tube map really is (or isn't!).

You'll also hear about the underground's deserted ghost stations, when its steam trains changed to electric, and why it's so important to know which way you're travelling on the Circle line... because you'll be riding on it!

The tour will come to an end at Sloane Square.

Note: You'll need to provide your own Oyster card, contactless card or travelcard that covers zone 1.
