About

Join a guided walking tour of the historical Baker Street Station. This train station tour is an intriguing voyage through time, exploring corners hidden from public view for over seven decades.

Venture into the unknown and find the roots of the world’s pioneering underground network. The trip grants exclusive access to the station’s clandestine, unused quarters.

Travel back to the era of Victorian Londoners on the 10th of January 1863, when Baker Street Station first opened its doors as an integral part of the revolutionary Metropolitan Railway. This game-changing idea of transporting passengers beneath the city’s busy streets slashed a tiresome 90-minute commute to just 20 minutes, forever revolutionizing urban travel.

This expedition contains visits to the station’s concealed treasures - original platforms, deserted lift shafts, and maze-like corridors dating back to 1945.
