This private London Black Taxi Tour takes you around the East End and City, exploring the places where the City’s Villains and Gangsters became infamous.
We stop at a wide variety of locations with the flexibility to either view them from within the Taxi, or Hop Out to get a closer look and take some photos. At each place, David will tell you tales of its past and give you loads of interesting facts and background info.
There’s a chance to stop a bit longer at one or two of the cafes and pubs. Favourites are Pellicci’s Italian Cafe, Maureen’s Pie and Mash, The Prospect of Whitby pub or The Town of Ramsgate pub.
Later on we see the locations of some of London’s biggest robberies and heists.

Such a brilliant day out. Dave was an excellent guide who made the day interesting and varied. The cab was spotlessly clean and included water and sweet treats which was a nice touch. We were never rushed and there was plenty of time for photos. We had lunch at an excellent Italian cafe in East London which added to the authenticity. I would highly recommend this tour.

From the moment Dave picked us up he made us so welcome and comfortable in the cab. Nothing was too much trouble, he stopped off, showed us places of interest and told us the stories behind what we were looking at. His knowledge is extensive! He recommended and introduced us to a fab Italian cafe (that requires a review of it's own) and took us to a great pub as we wanted to have a drink at the end of the tour. Before we left him we booked our next tour!
