Explore the secret and ‘forgotten’ locations where history took place in 2024 with our award-winning Hidden London tours - the only ones in the city that grant access to locations on the Underground network that are typically closed to the public.

Tickets are now available for tours running from January to March, giving you an exclusive chance to step behind-the-scenes of history. 

Seven in-person tours will be on offer, including tours of the original 19th century passageways and features at Shepherd’s Bush, the turn-of-century corridors and platforms of disused Aldwych station, Euston’s secret 1960s gallery of advertising posters; and the labyrinth of underground passages hidden deep beneath Clapham South built to shelter Londoners during the Second World War.

Also included will be the reintroduction of a popular packaged tour experience combining a historical dive into disused parts of Piccadilly Circus Underground station with a lunch at the iconic Hard Rock Café Piccadilly Circus.

All Hidden London tours are written by our own historical experts 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.
