It was very hot and very quiet that day. I was the only one that day so I got a private tour. Friendly guide who knew a lot about the underground in London. And he also gave me a few useful tips that came in handy in the days after.

unfortunately you only get told by the ghost stations and may not visit any. Actually, I had done the tour because of that. Regardless, the tour was very nice
