Description
Journey 11 stories underground to explore one of eight deep-level shelters that exist below the streets of London.
Opened to the public in July 1944, Clapham South deep-level shelter has over a mile of subterranean passageways that reveal the extraordinary stories of those who sheltered here, from Londoners seeking refuge during the Second World War, to hopeful Caribbean migrants arriving on the Empire Windrush, and even thrifty visitors to the Festival of Britain.

Buena experiencia, con un detalle que conviene saber antes. Por el precio que pagamos, la verdad que rinde muchísimo. El tiempo en Clapham South fue suficiente para disfrutarlo de verdad. Hubiera preferido menos tiempo de traslado y más en el lugar. Buena experiencia dentro de todo.

Vale cada centavo
Salimos encantados. Me quedé con las ganas de más tiempo en Segunda Guerra Mundial. El recorrido está bien pensado, no se repite ni da vueltas de más. Gracias por el día que nos hicieron pasar.

Faultless, honestly. Londres was the moment of the day. I did not expect round Trip Hotel Transfers to be included, a nice bonus. Easily one of the best things we did.

Muito melhor do que eu imaginava. A parada em Segunda Guerra Mundial foi o que mais gostamos. Serviu para decidir onde voltar no resto da semana. Uma experiência que vale cada minuto.

Cumplió, aunque esperaba un poco más por el precio. Avisamos que uno del grupo era vegetariano y lo resolvieron sin drama. Se agradece el clapham South. Nos hubiera gustado más variedad en el menú principal.
