"A rollercoaster of a ride" - I had a blast exploring the underground station with a capable tour guide! He showed me the history, the secrets and the beauty of this hidden gem. I learned so much about the culture and the people who used to live and work here. The journey was thrilling, fascinating and unforgettable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who loves adventure and discovery!

London Underground history - The tour was led by John Steel, who provided a wealth of information and enthusiasm. He covered a lot of fascinating underground railway history across a host of stations in Zones 1 and 2 on the network. It was a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon, leaving a healthy appetite for more at a later date.

Mandatory for the underground's fans, great experience for the rest - Jess was simply great guide. He is a very pleasant guy. The underground itself is fascinating, but the story of it served by Jess with his incredible voice, enthusiasm and sense of humour is something, what you should not miss.
