Black Cabs and Minicabs
In London there are two different types of taxis. The most famous are the black cabs and the others are minicabs. Minicabs are just people with cars that work through an agency. The attraction of a minicab is that they can be cheaper. However, they are not required to be licensed, unlike black cabs, and do not need to pass 'the knowledge' which proves they know their way around the city. If you do take a minicab, make sure you get the price to your destination before you get into it. Black cabs run on a meter but there should be a clearly visible fare structure in the cab.
Eurostar
