Hidden Tube Station Tour – Aldwych: The End of the Line – London, United Kingdom

EXPERIENCE:

London Transport Museum, the world’s leading museum of urban transport, invites you to take a Hidden London guided tour of the disused Aldwych tube station (as seen on Yesterday Channel’s ‘Secrets of the London Underground’).

Opened to the public in 1907, it was never as heavily used as originally intended and closed nearly 100 years later in 1994.

The station has had a varied history; from providing shelter to Londoners during the Blitz, to being used for film and TV shoots including The ABC Murders (2018), Darkest Hour (2017), Sherlock (2014), and Atonement (2007).

Join our tour to see the one of the former termini of the Piccadilly line – the ticket hall, the original lifts, abandoned platforms and tunnels, and inter-connecting walkways – including some that are very rarely seen by the public.

All Hidden London tours are written by historical experts from London Transport Museum and based on content drawn from the Museum’s extensive archive and collection. The tours were named ’Best Hidden Gem in the World’ at the Tiqets’ Remarkable Venue Awards 2022 by public vote.
