London Transport Museum
Explore Hidden London this summer with extra virtual tours!
We've had such positive feedback about our virtual tours, especially those of the new Elizabeth line developments at Tottenham Court Road and Liverpool Street stations, that we're offering you more chances to join virtual Hidden London tours over the summer, in addition to our regular in-person tours. 

Don't miss out: some tickets are still available for our in-person station tours of Moorgate, Euston, Charing Cross, Clapham South and the Kingsway Tram Tunnel.

There are so many interesting sites to explore: we look forward to welcoming you to discover new places this summer!

Virtual tours
What do virtual tours involve?

Our virtual tours run over Zoom, and involve our expert guides talking live, showing archive images and plans of the locations and unpacking the fascinating historical background and how each site developed over the years. They'll give you a real insight into the parts of the stations that the public don't get to see, and answer your questions along the way. 

If you live outside the capital, or find it difficult to access Hidden London tours in person, joining a virtual tour from the comfort of your own home is a unique way of getting behind the scenes at these historic sites.
