Barry was fabulous!
Small tip, don’t walk 15000 steps throughout the day before going on the tour. There are no spots to sit and listen.
Super informative and it was a great way to see a less touristy part of London.
Response from Host, Aug 2026
Thank you, Joachim! We're delighted you had such a great time with Anna. We're glad her enthusiasm, humor, and friendly personality made the tour so much fun. We truly appreciate your kind words!
We had an absolutely fantastic time on the Jack the Ripper walking tour - easily one of the highlights of our trip.
Our guide, Tyson, was exceptional. He managed to bring the chilling history of the events to life in a way that was both deeply engaging and surprisingly entertaining. It’s not an easy balance to strike given the dark subject matter, but Tyson did it brilliantly - mixing well-researched facts with just the right touch of humor to keep the group captivated throughout.
If you’re considering a Jack the Ripper tour, I can’t recommend this one - and Tyson as your guide - highly enough. Informative, atmospheric, and genuinely enjoyable.

Thank you so much for your glowing review! We're thrilled you had such a fantastic time on the Jack the Ripper tour and that Tyson brought the history to life in such an engaging and entertaining way. We truly appreciate your high recommendation! 😊
Such an informative and interesting tour. The tour at night really added to the intrigue and mystery of Jack the Ripper. I loved wandering through some of the older alleys, and using my imagination to think about what it would have been like back then. Out guide was great and will recommend this to future travelers .

Hi Kimberly, so glad you enjoyed the Jack the Ripper night tour! 🕵️♂️🌙 Happy to hear the guide made it informative and immersive. Thanks for recommending it to future travelers!
Fantastic tour guide. Lots of interesting facts. He really did his homework. I have been on this tour 2 other times and he was the best guide by far.

Thank you, Kevin! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the tour and that your guide made it so engaging and informative. Glad it was your best experience yet!
It is a two and a half hour walking tour. You do not return to the departure point meaning you have to orient yourself wrt your return journey. Lisa was helpful in all areas. You get a fair bit of history and a nice download of old pics and reports.
“Sadie” was awesome! She had such a fun, spirited, and empowering way of telling the women’s stories!
Response from Host, Jun 2025
Hi Susan_S,
We're so happy to hear that "Sadie" was awesome! It's fantastic that she had such a fun, spirited, and empowering way of telling the women's stories.
Very interesting and informative tour. Tyson did a great job keeping it interesting. Remembered everyone’s name and information, using it to keep everyone engaged. He really knew the subject and answered everyone’s questions. But who was Jack the Ripper?
Response from Host, Jun 2025
Hi Douglas_Z,
Thanks for the great review! We're so happy to hear you found our Jack the Ripper tour interesting and informative. Tyson truly is fantastic at keeping everyone engaged and knows the subject inside and out – we'll definitely pass on your compliments!
And as for "who was Jack the Ripper?"... that's the million-dollar question, isn't it? 😉 The mystery is part of what makes the story so enduring!
Great experience. Tyson was very entertaining and knowledgeable on the topic. Would highly recommend.
Response from Host, Apr 2025
Thank you, Janet! We're glad you had a great time and enjoyed Tyson's tour. We appreciate the recommendation.
Interesting information, good walk and friendly tour guide. Could have used some volume increase as it was difficult to hear everything she was saying all the time.
