Our Museum is located in the heart of Covent Garden and is an award-winning day out for the whole family. Packed full of iconic red London buses, heritage Tube trains and black cabs, the Museum tells the story of how London has been shaped by its transport system over the past 220 years, starting from 18th-century horse-drawn buses to its pioneering underground railway.
Families will love getting hands-on with many of the Museum's interactive games and play areas - under 5s will love exploring the All Aboard play zone and in the Future Engineers gallery, you can take to the driver's seat and drive an Elizabeth Line train. Visitors will be able to see vintage posters up-close and learn about iconic pieces of design including the Tube map and the world-renowned roundel or bullseye.
