Our tour guide, Tyson was awesome. He was super knowledgeable and very funny. Not only do you learn a lot about the crimes, but it’s also a great history lesson of 1800s London. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for an interactive and learning experience!

I was deeply disappointed. Being familiar with the facts of the story, and having my Son with me, who wanted to hear it for the first time, I booked a Jack the Ripper tour, not one from a view point of the victims. This would be indeed, another side of the story, but I definitely didn’t book it. The tour guide was very bubbly and extremely enthusiastic and entertaining, but gave some fundamental inaccuracies, omitted some obvious key points to the story i.e. the graffiti and the shawl in the alley despite walking past and referencing it, and a lot of what I considered fabrication to add to the story of the victims. Just pointing in the general direction and saying “the victim was murdered a few streets away in that direction” didn’t add to the general telling of the story. Thank goodness that I didn’t travel from half way across the world like the other tourists, who have gone away with not too much of a memorable Ripper Tour.

Linda was a great tour guide. She was very knowledgeable and showed us all the places we needed to see. She gave us interesting details that were not readily available to us and also recommended a book to read about Jack the Ripper.

Our tour guide, Hadi was so entertaining, engaging, and informative. We loved his enthusiasm for the history as much as his passion for storytelling.

We loved it! Our guide - Kory - was excellent. He gave us a lot of extra tips, history & info about the buildings & neighborhoods we walked thru, which we all enjoyed. Kory was a great storyteller. It was an entertaining tour & took us thru a part of London we never would have explored on our own! And our guide had a very compelling theory about who Jack the Ripper was…
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Thank you, Jessica! We’re so grateful you enjoyed the tour and Kory’s storytelling.

Dougal was absolutely fantastic, extremely knowledgeable and really painted a very detailed picture/experience of what it would be like in the 1800s to understand the story of Jack the Ripper and the victims. Strongly recommend.
Response from Host, Jan 2026

We did the Jack the Ripper tour with Hadi and he was fantastic. He greeted each of us personally at the start, which immediately set such a thoughtful, welcoming tone. He was calm, confident, incredibly knowledgeable, and genuinely engaging the whole way through.
The subject matter is obviously heavy, but Hadi handled it with real respect and care. Nothing felt gratuitous or sensationalized; instead, he placed everything in thoughtful historical context and invited us into the story rather than just reciting facts. He also has a lovely, subtle sense of humor that added lightness at just the right moments.
The pace was perfect, the information was rich, and he made the whole experience feel both meaningful and human. Only at the end did we learn he’s relatively new — which came as a surprise given how professional and confident he is. Highly recommend touring with him!
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Thank you, Lucia! We’re so grateful you enjoyed the tour and Hadi’s thoughtful guidance.

Anne_F, Nov 2025
Very informative tour with a knowledgeable guide that walked through the different areas in sequential order so you really got the whole story of what is known. The weather didn’t cooperate, and there were torrential downpours throughout the tour, but Tyson kept a great attitude and we still had a good time!
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Thank you, Anne! We’re glad you enjoyed the tour and Tyson’s positivity despite the weather — it’s great to hear the story came alive for you!

Excellent tour with a really great guide! Doogle led our group expertly through the neighborhood with consideration of our ability to see the locations despite other groups being at the same locations. He told the stories with compassion and brought the history to life giving the victims a voice and setting the mood of the dark times they endured. This was a highlight of our trip! Highly recommend!!
Response from Host, Oct 2025
Thank you, Bernadette! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the tour and Doogle’s compassionate storytelling — he’ll be delighted to hear your recommendation!
Melissa_B, Oct 2025
The tour guide was very knowledgeable and it was interesting. The only thing I would say negatively was that it was sometimes very hard to hear him. He looked away a lot while talking and at those times we missed the commentary.
Response from Host, Oct 2025
Thank you, Melissa! We’re glad you found the tour interesting and the guide knowledgeable. We appreciate your feedback about the audibility — we’ll work on improving this for future guests.
Renee_B, Oct 2025
Tour was fantastic. The guide waited briefly so no one was left behind, important as there were some tube closures. Very knowledgable and interesting portrayal of chronological events. Educational and respectful to the era and circumstances surrounding the victims. A longer tour than others. Great value for money. And we had the best guide.
Response from Host, Oct 2025
Thank you, Renee! We’re thrilled you had a fantastic time and appreciated your guide’s knowledge, attention, and respectful storytelling — sounds like a memorable tour!
