Fantastic experience!

Scott_B, Oct 2025
Absolutely wonderful experience! Lee was fantastic about EVERYTHING! He was so informative and kind, he was incredibly knowledgeable and so agreeable! Lee took us to all the sights, he pointed out extras and places of interest for another time, and he really gave us so much food for thought about the murders. Lee went the extra mile to drop us off at our next excursion and even gave us info on how to get a taxi back to our hotel later this afternoon. Lee is a wonderful guide and we highly recommend this tour!

Thank you so much for such a thoughtful and detailed review. I’m really pleased to hear how much you enjoyed your time with Lee. He has a genuine passion for his subject and takes great pride in making sure guests leave with a deeper understanding, not just of the stories, but of London itself. Going the extra mile to help you with your onward plans is very much in keeping with how we like to look after our guests. I’ll be sure to pass your kind words on to Lee, he’ll be delighted to read this.

Good Tour and Great tour guide

Awesome experience doing the Jack the Ripper London tour. Lee was ebullient and very friendly and knowledgeable. He makes the trip so immersive and interesting. He also has ample supplemental information about all of the evidence that is known. It feels like we could literally crack the case wide open with all of Lee’s expert analysis and in-depth understanding of the facts. This tour is so well worth the money. Our driver and Jack the Ripper historian Lee, navigated us through the narrow alleyways and streets where 5 of the canonical victims were found. The information was captivating and informative. Some things we knew but there were plenty of gaps in our understanding. That’s where Lee was able to fill in the blanks and help us understand better. We feel like true history detectives.
