She was very professional with dealing with outside elements as well as anyquestions that we had during the tour. Very entertaining, very fun and we would definitely book again if we returned with family or friends. Please give shy an accommodation. Please give Shy a raise, gold star, and pat on back.

So much fun!! - Barry was such a great guide! He clearly knew the facts and legends surrounding Jack the Ripper. In addition, you could tell he was a fan of the mystery. Did justice to the victims by repeating their names and telling what historians know about each one. Walking portions were flat except low curbs. Barry took time to help us imagine what life in 1888 would have been like despite some of the modernization. Definitely worth the time and money!

Jack the ripper walking tour - Fantastic experience would highly recommend. Our tour guide Tom was the perfect mix of fun, theatrical and incredibly knowledgeable, we'd found out why carrots are orange before we'd even left the start. I was dubious before we started and enthralled by the finish all thanks to Tom a natural tour guide if ever there was one.

Very caring and respectful - Tom’s knowledge is second to none. He portrayed the victims in a very caring way and didn’t just focus on the murders but the victims back grounds.

A perfect evening activity - We had an absolutely fantastic time on the Jack the Ripper walking tour - easily one of the highlights of our trip. Our guide, Tyson, was exceptional. He managed to bring the chilling history of the events to life in a way that was both deeply engaging and surprisingly entertaining. It’s not an easy balance to strike given the dark subject matter, but Tyson did it brilliantly - mixing well-researched facts with just the right touch of humor to keep the group captivated throughout. If you’re considering a Jack the Ripper tour, I can’t recommend this one - and Tyson as your guide - highly enough. Informative, atmospheric, and genuinely enjoyable.

Off the beaten path tour at night ! - Such an informative and interesting tour. The tour at night really added to the intrigue and mystery of Jack the Ripper. I loved wandering through some of the older alleys, and using my imagination to think about what it would have been like back then. Out guide was great and will recommend this to future travelers .
