What people are saying about England

Hannah, our tour guide, was a very friendly, engaging, and knowledgable ‘Ripperologist’. Knew the murder sites well and gave comprehensive accounts of the facts of each case, while paying respect and homage to Jack the Ripper’s victims. Struck a great balance of educational and fun while also endulging in various conspiracy theories surrounding the topic of who Jack the Ripper could be. I’d definitely recommend this to anyone visiting and/or wanting to learn about the infamous Jack the Ripper, and his surroundings of London’s grimey Victorian rookery history in the heart of Whitechapel. Ideal value for money.

Really fun and exciting experience for adults and children to take part in London's history. Your senses will come into play during the tour and you will not be disappointed!
