About this experience
Join Rory Breaker for a guided tour of the London criminal underworld, recommended by Mad Frankie Fraser – the notorious gangland legend. Actor Vas Blackwood was once an on-screen drug-dealing businessman, best known for his iconic role in Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. Explore film locations as well as places associated with real-life gangsters. Vas will provide exciting insights into the history of each stop, having rubbed shoulders with some of London’s ex-gangsters himself.
You and a friend will be guided around many of the locations that the Kray twins frequented, such as the Blind Beggar pub, where Ronnie Kray murdered a rival gang member. Find out how the gangsters ‘ran’ the capital in the 1960s. You’ll see film locations used in gangster movies such as The Crying Game, Face, and Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels. Finish with a Q&A session at a nearby pub with Vas Blackwood.

“Fantastic Gangster Tour”
We went on the Gangster Tour on Saturday and had a great time, Vas was a fantastic host very knowledgeable and hilarious, I would highly recommend.
“Gangster tour”
Did the tour on the 18th Sept 2021. Vas was brilliant the whole time. Full of very interesting stories that aren’t mainstream knowledge. Lots about the Krays and the filming of Lockstock. The tour had quite a few on it (probably catching up from all the cancellations). Vas managed it really well and the group were all engaged and had a lot of banter. If you’re thinking about it , dont worry book it. Unless your easily offended in which case dont. Last thing wear comfy walking shoes.
