Family‑dedicated Hidden London tours have arrived! 🚇

This brand‑new adaptation of Aldwych: the end of the line is designed especially for families with children aged 10+. Led by expert guides using adapted language, you will go behind the station’s closed doors and explore its 20th‑century story together.

Families work as a team to solve clues and riddles, uncover original features like the ticket hall and wooden lifts, and discover how Aldwych was used during the two world wars and beyond.
With hands‑on activities, oral testimonies and sensory moments, this is a shared adventure through London’s transport history 🔍
