I’ve had an email from London Transport Museum today saying that the 2018 hidden London tour tickets are on sale next week. I’m thinking of booking one of them. Have any members been on any of these tours? If so, which ones and what did you think of them?
I’m probably looking at the Charing Cross tour as my preferred choice.
All thoughts and opinions welcome! Thanks.

Done all of them. In order of interest:
Down St - bit of history (some not entirely certain) Clapham South - lots of history 55 Broadway - get there before they sell it Aldgate - be in a movie Euston - a small time capsule Charing Cross - be in a movie and a bigger time capsule Highgate - get some fresh air
This is a good example of the correct use of a list when posting. It helps not to be full of it as well.

Done all of them:
Charing Cross - former Jubilee platforms, focus on modern uses/filming
Euston - tunnels and lots of 60s posters, really enjoyed
Down Street - pricey but atmospheric, you have to use your imagination a lot though
55 Broadway - superb Art Deco architecture
Highgate - peek into the bat tunnel, see the thwarted plans for the Northern Heights
Clapham South - another one which requires imagination but rather interesting
