Traveler reviews
Great tour
We've been meaning to do a Jack the Ripper tour for a while, and we're really glad we chose this one! Dominic was extremely knowledgeable and shared some fascinating insights, drawing on all the available information. He was clearly well prepared, engaging and interacted brilliantly with the group, making the whole experience both interesting and enjoyable. A really fascinating tour that I'd highly recommend to anyone with an interest in Jack the Ripper – or any budding Ripperologists!
Very nice Jack the Ripper tour from Sina
The guide (Sina) told the story very well, see knew how we could keep the attention to the story with various cliffhangers and good facts.
Great experience
Great Halloween experience - lasts 2 hours
A fascinating tour with an excellent guide!
We really enjoyed our Jack the Ripper tour with Martin. He was a fantastic guide, incredibly knowledgeable and engaging, with plenty of historical detail while still keeping that atmosphere of mystery that makes the story so fascinating. What I particularly appreciated was the attention given to the victims, putting their lives and stories at the centre of the mystery rather than focusing entirely on Jack the Ripper himself. It was a different and much more interesting perspective. The walk itself was lovely, taking us through Aldgate, Brick Lane and the City of London, discovering streets and corners full of history. Martin was brilliant throughout, bringing the stories to life through his wonderfully eloquent storytelling and making the whole experience both informative and captivating. Highly recommended!
