Step back in time to the autumn of 1888, when the East End of London was terrorized by an unknown killer. Learn about the brutal murders of at least five women, all poor, working-class prostitutes, in the districts of Whitechapel and Spitalfields. Hear about the known victims, called the “canonical five”: Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes, and Mary Jane Kelly. Discover how all were killed with exceptional violence, showing a degree of precision that led many to believe the murderer had medical or anatomical knowledge. Learn how the name “Jack the Ripper” first appeared in a letter sent to police and the press, supposedly written by the killer himself. Whether genuine or a journalist’s hoax, the name stuck — and became one of the most infamous in criminal history. The murders revealed the appalling poverty and social neglect of Victorian East London, forcing the public to confront the dark reality beneath the wealth of the British Empire.

Jack the Ripper and East End history

Enjoyed our tour with Nick. We ended up being the only ones who showed up but he gave us the full experience and kept us engaged the entire time. Nick presented a compelling tale on the Ripper murders and also provided interesting history about the East End. Glad we did it.

Greg rocked this tour!

Greg was fantastic! On time, friendly and so very knowledgeable! He not only knew everything about the tour route... he also knew about the random things we asked about! As the Bard wrote, "Ignorance is the curse of God; knowledge is the wing wherewith we fly to heaven"... Greg absolutely gave us wings! Highly recommended!

London Serial Killers - The Blood and Tears Walk

Sarah_C, Sep 2025

A walk through the dark history of London

I loved this tour! I adore true crime and the stories behind them. This tour was a walk backwards into the dark side of London’s history. As a true crime fan, I thought I knew a lot about the UKs serial killers. But this tour opened my eyes to ones I’ve never heard of before. Standing at the sights were murders have occurred and places that London’s killers frequented was a great experience. Declan’s telling of the stories really draws you in and puts you in the past and into the minds of the depraved murderers of London. Highly recommend this tour for any true crime fans

Accurate and respectful

was very interesting as you could tell the guide had done his research personally with many side facts and interactive discussions. I Had to dig a bit to find one that wasn't theatrics and gore but more historically accurate and respectful of the women murdered . Highly recommend !

Jack the Ripper - What About the Women?

Karen_T, May 2025

Not your typical Jack the Ripper tour—which is good!

A very enjoyable walking tour. I’d been on a Jack the Ripper tour previously, but this one was from a very different perspective. I learned a lot about the women he killed, their lives before their murders, the circumstances that brought them to White Chapel, and Victorian England in general. It was very interesting and eye opening. It is more of a history tour than true crime. The tour was about 2 hours with a lot of walking, frequent stops and places to sit, if needed. There were no grisly pictures or telling of how they were murdered so children are safe to come on the tour. I highly recommend.
