London Transport Museum

Admission to a museum tracing the history of London's world-renowned public transportation

With a ticket to the London Transport Museum, you can learn how the capital’s public transportation system shaped the city over the past two centuries. Housed in an old flower market, the immersive exhibits will unveil the story of urban travel, from the horse-drawn buses of the 18th century to the introduction of the ‘Tube’, red London buses, trams, the iconic black cabs and more.

You'll get a feel for this rich history through vintage posters, beautifully restored vehicles and interactive attractions. Little ones can enter the world of make-believe in the All Aboard playzone and try out life as a conductor, mechanic or driver.
