Really interesting tour and stories about Jack the Ripper.
Our guide was very knowledgeable and interesting to listen too

George, our guide was very knowledgeable about all the details, rumors, & conspiracy theories surrounding the Jack the Ripper murders. Also, it's walking tour on cobblestone so wear comfortable shoes and dress appropriately for the weather.

Coming from Turtle Island (America), it’s one thing to read about the history of Jack the Ripper in books, but it’s a completely different experience to actually stand in the exact locations where these events took place. Walking the streets of London gave the history a weight that you just can't get from a distance.
Our guide, George, was fantastic. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable and kind, but he also shared local insights passed down through his own family history. Hearing those personal connections made the stories feel much more grounded and authentic.
If you're looking for a tour that balances deep historical facts with a genuine local perspective, I highly recommend this one!

My daughter and I absolutely loved this Jack the Ripper Tour. Our guide, George, was phenomenal--he knew so much history, not only about Jack the Ripper--but also about London, in general. He was an excellent storyteller, and encouraged questions and conversation. After the tour, he actually walked us to our tube stop to make sure we got there safely. I 100% recommend this tour if you're in London, especially if you can have George as your guide.

Fun and learned a lot. George was amazing as a guide and teacher. George painted a vivid picture of life in the 1800s and how scary this time was with a serial killer on the loose

Entertaining and informative. Great mix of London history and the gory details of the story. Entertaining weaving of the theories together. George was very generous with his time, knowledgeable about the subject, and very engaging and informative.

Totally enjoyed the Jack the Ripper tour. It was just long enough 1&half hrs. We probably only walked for half of that as stopped about 5 times so George could talk to us. George was brill, friendly & knew his stuff, also spoke loud & clear, would recommend his tour.
Katherine_S, Nov 2025
We booked this tour very last minute and I’m so glad we did, it was a great way to spend an evening in London. George was an incredible guide - so engaging, he really knew his stuff and helped bring it to life.
MaryJo_W, Nov 2025
Wear walking shoes and plan to have a good time learning all about Jack the Ripper and his victims. Sounds morbid but it’s truly fascinating. Our tour guide, George, was the best! We could see and hear other tours happening and it was apparent, George knows his stuff. Loud voice too so everyone in group could easily hear and understand him.

Was on this tour last night, and can say it was definitely one of the highlights of our holiday.
A special shout out to George, our tour guide who was very informative and made the experience extra special.
If you are interested in anything related to Jack the Ripper, I would highly recommend this tour the next time you're in London.

It was interesting to visit the sites where the individual murders were discovered, in spite of the fact that London is much changed. Our guide was great with the commentary and injecting drama into the story.
