Mind the gap, and welcome aboard our London Tube Walking Tour. The walking tour of the world’s first Tube railway lasts approximately two and three quarter hours, and you will travel through 150 years of London’s Tube history.
Your private small group tour will start at Paddington station and take you to some of London’s most famous, deepest, oldest, most beautiful and peculiar Tube stations.
As part of the walking tour, you will learn about the evolution of the London Tube system when it was founded in 1863. You will also understand how the Tube lines used to be owned by rival companies and find out why we now have electric trains instead of steam engines.
