Truly felt like we stepped back in time - Really enjoyed our evening walking tour. Jenny, our guide was clearly an expert and provided so much fascinating detail and insight not just on the murders, but also brought to life the living conditions and realities of that era. Highly recommend as an activity to do in London

The best Jack the Ripper tour around - Lindsey was very knowledgeable and had some really good visuals with her iPad so you can visualize what the area looked like in 1888. She was upbeat and somewhat witty at times. She has years of experience and it shows.If you are in London and are looking to do a Jack the Ripper tour this is definitely the one you need to sign up for. You will not be disappointed!!!

Jack the Ripper Tour and Pub Crawl - Great tour. We scheduled a private tour and pub crawl. Jenny was awesome. Her pictures really put you back in time to imagine what it was like as most of the buildings no longer exist. She was very knowledgeable, took her time on the tour and was just a great personality over all. I highly suggest a tour with her.

Jack in a way you don’t normally see - Jenny was a great guide. Punctual and very informative. If you are like me and only know the Hollywood version this tour will teach you a lot.

Great value expert-led experience - highly recommend - We went on the Jack the Ripper tour as a group of friends and were all really impressed. We spent 2.5 to 3 hours walking round Aldgate and Whitechapel, seeing all the key sites and looking at crime scene photos and drawings. Brilliant value for money considering the ticket price. Jenny was a fantastic tour guide - a real expert! She has researched the Whitechapel murders throughout her career, campaigned for gravestones for the victims and appeared on TV shows as an expert on Jack the Ripper. Her knowledge went above and beyond what we expected when we booked.

Insightful and atmospheric tour - Lindsey was very knowledgeable and engaging.M and her photos really helped build a picture of London in that time. Not for young children as some of the pictures are of crime scenes and very graphic.
