About This Tour

  • Tour description

    In partnership with the London Transport Museum / Hidden London we are delighted to be able to offer an exclusive behind-the-scenes Charing Cross Station Tour. The tour of the London Underground Station features spots regularly seen on screen and stands in for a working tube station.

    On this Charing Cross Station Tour, you’ll see the empty platforms, tunnels and escalators of this now empty station and visit areas not accessible to the general public.

    Although it has been closed to the general public since 1999 productions to have used this station include the 23rd James Bond film, Skyfall, Thor 2, The Bourne Ultimatum and it was also seen in the first episode of Series 3 of BBC’s Sherlock with Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman. In the second series of Killing Eve a scene was filmed on the platform with Eve (Sandra Oh).

Interesting, inspiring and immersive Our awesome guide Jonathan was filled with interesting stories and facts. It was interesting to hear not only about the movies and tv-shows, but also the plays, the author Conan-Doyle and books. I learned a lot new and afterwards was inspired to dive in to the Holmes stories again. The places visited were interesting and variable, and the route was not too challenging to walk.

Great day out! Driver was very knowledgeable, not only of Clarkson and his farm but also of the Cotswolds in general. Easy to find the pick up point and we really enjoyed our day.

Clarkson’s Farm A great day to follow the tv series. Our guide Dave was very knowledgeable about the area and Clarkson’s business ventures making the trip very worth while. The minibus was also comfortable and just the right size for the trip We would happily recommend the company and the experience.

Excellent Clarkson’s Farm experience Great time visiting farm shop, Farmer’s Dog and Hawkstone Brewery. Special thanks to Dave, our driver from Go Cotswolds, who provided a running commentary throughout and showed us many other locations that featured in the TV series. Excellent work Dave!

Clarksons Farm Very enjoyable, Dave was very courteous and knowledgable, and the time at the stops was just enough to see everything, need to plan early as waited over six months to get on the tour. Would highly recommend

Brilliant Our tour guide was Jason and he was absolutely brilliant. He was so friendly and clearly very knowledgeable. He was honest about what we needed to expect given how popular Diddly Squat Farm is, however we were very lucky and managed to get into the shop. Jason completely made the tour what it was. Great couple of hours.

Very enjoyable experience. We were lucky to have the guide to ourselves as the other people who had booked didn't turn up. Our guide, Michael was very friendly, very knowledgeable and added anecdotes to the commentary. A very enjoyable experience.
