Original e-Bike Tour : smugglers & city builders｜United Kingdom

Enjoy a 3.5-hour bike ride around the East End of London to see many of the city’s most historic sites. Meet your guide on the south bank of the River Thames, close to the Southbank arts complex, and select your bike. As you tour, an experienced guide will unravel the layers of history that have built up by the side of the Thames over a period of two centuries.

The East End Tour takes a route from Gabriel's Wharf, along the river, stopping at attractions including the new Globe Theatre, Sir Francis Drake's Golden Hinde, and on to the Tower of London and Tower Bridge.

Cross over the bridge to St. Katherine's Dock, and pedal on to Brunel's tunnel and Tobacco Dock, where you will catch the atmosphere of London’s former Docklands. Cross into Cable Street and discover the true East End of multicultural London. Back to the City walls at Aldgate, learn the truth of who Jack the Ripper really was, and what was covered up!

Move from poverty to extreme riches (metaphorically speaking) and see the stunning contrast in London's financial district, as you cycle past the splendor of the Royal Exchange, Mansion House, and Guildhall.

Naturally the tour includes a ride past Sir Christopher Wren’s glorious St. Paul's Cathedral, before heading back to Gabriel's Wharf, cycling in the footsteps of Shakespeare, Dickens, and more. Enjoy plenty of gossip along the way, just as those famous authors probably would have!
