It was a great tour going to Greenwich. The tour guide was informative and very funny, made the experience very entertaining. The trip back didn't include the tour guide unfortunately, it was a pre-recorded audio guide, so not as entertaining. But we will do this again with other family members.

Ultimate Jack the Ripper : Guided Tour of London

daniel_j, Mar 2026

A fantastic insight to the Ripper and life in Victorian London

A fantastic walking tour around Whitechapel and the City of London, full of facts, clues and theories on who the Ripper may have been (keep in mind the identity was never proven), and the story of each victim. The walk is at a steady pace, and along the way we learn about life in London and of the etymology of a number of phrases that came from life in the area at the time (hangover, for example). "murder" tours aren't usually my thing but I think this has triggered a new intrigue in learning about the dark history of cities

Jonas did an excellent job and provided interesting information about both London’s history and the Harry Potter movies and also some useful advice on how to get around the city and where to go. My kids were glued to his side absorbing everything he had to tell. They wanted me to add that they thought his questions were too easy, though. ;-) All in all, it was a very good experience.

What an intense night!

The tour guide was absolutely amazing! He did a wonderful job of evening what the streets of Whitechapel would have looked like at the time of the Ripper murders. His research and dedication to the topic were clear. His knowledge and ability to humanize the victims is exemplary.

Brilliant London Ghost Tour

George was amazing — incredibly knowledgeable and very factual, with loads of interesting information throughout the tour. As a local, he clearly knows the area inside out, which really added to the experience. The tour never felt rushed; George took his time, answered every question people had, and made sure everyone was engaged. It was well paced, informative, and genuinely fascinating from start to finish. A great experience overall and excellent value for money — a solid two hours that flew by. Highly recommend.

Very good tour

Our guide Marvin was absolutely brilliant, he told stories with great intrigue and mystery. It was a cold, damp, rainy night and there were many really interesting facts that made you forget about the weather and the time passed quickly. The boat ride was good with drinks, snacks and toilets available on board. Highly recommend.

London bright lights!

It was a great opportunity to see the city at night with all of its lights. Our guide was great. He was very informative and had a lot of cheesy little jokes which we loved. We had seen the city and all of these sites in the day, but it was worth seeing them at night as well.. we definitely recommend this tour.

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
