Itinerary
Meet your guide in Aldgate East, London, and set off by foot to discover the history of London’s most feared and infamous murderers—Jack the Ripper.
The tour is centered around Whitechapel, the epicentre of the ripper’s many murders in the late 19th century. While today the neighborhood is a vibrant multicultural place, Whitechapel in Jack the Ripper’s day was one of the East End’s most impoverished districts. Using handheld RIPPER-VISION™ devices, you’ll see projections of the Whitechapel streets as they were in Victorian times when the Ripper’s reign of terror took place.
After just over 1.5 hours of exploring and hearing facts and theories about the prolific serial killer, your tour ends near Spitalfields Market.

Tour guide was dressed in appropriate attire to look the part. He gave great history, he is an amazing story teller and great guide. The tour was a good amount of time for our group. The ending was amazing. We would suggest getting clearer pictures as they were difficult to see. The ripper vision was disappointing, but we think it was due to it being too light outside. We would highly recommend this guide as he was tremendous.

Big group but the guide did not miss a beat - very good tour.
A bit of walking so would suggest any activity earlier in the day kept to a minimum.
Scott_N, Jun 2026
There is a good amount of walking so be prepared. The walking is uneven ground at some points so take care. The guide was super knowledgable and the images made a big difference.
Melanie_H, Jun 2026
Great walking tour- the guide was dressed up in a suit and hat, very fitting when giving a tour about events from the 1800s. Very knowledgeable guide/Ripperologist.
Nancy_T, Jun 2026
Excellent tour. Worth it coming over from West end. Our guide paced his presentation very well so when he was done we were totally surprised. Highly recommend.Do it!!
Linda_M, Jun 2026
Our guide was really knowledgable, animated and charasmatic. He helped the story and locations come to life. We walked away knowing more than we went started, and he even helped to change our perspective. Lots of fun, recommend for sure.

This is a fun and great activity for true crime buffs! Our tour guide Andre was super knowledgeable, kind and funny. I loved being able to get more steps in the day with this tour and I felt the pacing was great!
Gina_R, Jun 2026
The best tour guide is Alan! Very friendly, knowledgeable, fun, & respectful. He knew so much of the history & was respectful to the victims!
Pauline_M, Jun 2026
Our guide was very knowledgeable as he had wrote a book and appeared on national tv discussing JR. Even though it took 2 hrs it felt more like 30mins .
Lea_R, Jun 2026
Well informed guide. Learned a lot of small details that made it feel that much more real. Was still bright out, so Ripper-Vision was difficult to see. Fun and educational thing to do in the afternoon.
Matthew_P, Jun 2026
Our guide was so cool! He had an amazing personal connection to the murders. He was very engaging and lively.
Rebecca_S, Jun 2026
This tour was awesome! M.P was so knowledgeable of the events that took place and the history of the area. We were entertained the whole time and loved the tour! Highly suggest you take this tour!

A fun walking tour that puts you in 1888 East End London. Great for history lovers and visitors wanting a little more than the usual city attractions.
Olivier_L, Jun 2026
The guide was invested and funny and he cared about the group experience and safety. Focused on the details of the murders too.
Kenneth_S, Jun 2026
Tour guide was fun and informative, unfortunately the ripper vision was ineffective due to time of day and it being unable to adequately project
Christopher_B, Jun 2026
Really great tour! Our tour guide Sinead was amazing! Just book it! You won't be sorry! Lots of information!
Chris_H, Jun 2026
This was my 4th Ripper Tour (in the last 40 years). Consistently, the Ripper Vision Tour is the best! Our guide, Rob, was extremely knowledgeable and entertaining. He made the tour. I highly recommended this tour to anyone interested in the Ripper murders.
Michael_S, Jun 2026
Really informative, and somewhat graphic (just a warning they do show crime scene photos on this tour, but you can look away) we have always known about jack the ripper but this tour gives so much more information and it's really intriguing. Our guide was janede and she was so knowledgeable and I even found her on YouTube.
Mike_H, Jun 2026
First, ask if Andre is the guide. He was utterly amazing. 30 years studying Jack and has personal ties to the crimes. I won’t spoil anything. The one draw back is you can’t go to every site because of modern construction. But Andre made it work. .LOTS of walking and probably not ideal for small kids.
Nichole_M, May 2026
This is an amazing tour! We have actually done it a couple times, each time we visit with new people.
Kaleb_N, May 2026
Fun night out! Aside from learning the details of the Jack the Ripper murders we got a tour of parts of London with local insight.
Stephanie_M, May 2026
A terrific and engaging tour! Our guide was excellent. Wear good walking shoes! Brimg your friends. 😊
Gregory_O, May 2026
The tour requires short distance walking between historic locations. Alex came dressed for the part. Very animated in his description of the murders and how they occurred.
Julie_G, May 2026
Although the guy was very good with the history, we felt there was too much walking and not enough talking, with very long gaps in between
Katherine_M, May 2026
Very interesting tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable about Jack the Ripper. The Ripper vision wasn’t quite what I thought it would be, could have been because it was so light but outside. But our guide did a great job!
Andrew_F, May 2026
Wear comfy shoes and dress appropriately tour takes about 2hrs with a fair bit of walking
Friendly knowledgeable guide who was very approachable.
Gregory_C, May 2026
Was a very fun and informative tour. Highly recommend and would do it again. Our guide was fantastic
Jeffrey_R, May 2026
Nick, our guide, made the trip. Fantastic host! He is very knowledgeable about the subject matter. He’s also funny and personable. Tour is pretty long.
Paula_S, May 2026
There was a lot of walking as expected. We covered a lot of ground getting to all the victims' sites. The information provided was very informative. Definitely gives you lots to think about! Well worth your time & money spent. Thank you Rob for a good night!
Heidi_M, May 2026
Our tour guy was very charismatic, very knowledgeable and we learned a lot. The visual photos were very wffective
