Thanks nick (: - Our tour guide (Nick) was great! He was well prepared with the am iPad showing us real photographs to the stories, and he was great at communicating where to meet him and how to contact him if we couldn’t find him. Nick was theatrical and friendly and truly loved his job. We would absolutely recommend this tour.

Can’t do better! - "We had the absolute pleasure of taking a Jack the Ripper tour with Nick Lautman of Loudman Tours this morning, and he exceeded all expectations! Nick masterfully blended humor, excitement, and engagement with incredible historical insights, making the tour both informative and thoroughly entertaining. His poise and ability to bring the chilling story of Jack the Ripper to life kept our entire company captivated from start to finish. We cannot recommend Nick and Loudman Tours enough! If you're looking to take a Jack the Ripper tour, do yourself a favour and book with Nick—you won't regret it!"

Engaging and Entertaining Tour Guide. - Very knowledgeable guide who was entertaining & funny but at the same time gave good historical context for the women who were so horribly murdered. We were almost 2 hours into the tour when I first looked at my watch, it was that engrossing. Excellent value too and highly recommended.

Highly recommended tour - Nick is a very knowledgeable and entertaining tour guide, who knows his way around the topic. I love the fact, that he focused on the victims of the Ripper who are way too often forgotten and simply written of as prostitutes. It was awesome learning about the lives these women led and the general living circumstances in the East End during that time. I learned a lot during this tour and the time went by in a breeze. I can wholeheartedly recommend his tour to everyone, who is interested in Jack the Ripper. 👏🏼 Thank you so much Nick!

Engaging, detailed and refreshing - Had the best time on this tour with our guide Nick. Nick was incredibly engaging and interactive and overall made the experience a great one. Was refreshing to hear detailed information about the lives of the victims and humanised them to make them not just a part of the story. I would highly recommend!

Hang Out With Nick and Learn - My husband and I had an amazing time on Nick’s tour. We actually scheduled a tour he led in Canterbury and Dover. He mentioned he also does a Jack the Ripper tour, which we were planning to do the night of the full moon. So we scheduled the tour with him. We learned so much from him and he is just a great guy. We plan to meet back up with him on our next trip over so we can do the music tour. I plan to recommend his tour to friends heading to London as well. The specifics of the tour were very informative and objective. He covered so many details and provided great insight on the murders of these women. He provided many angles about the East End of London. Also, he knows that area. He can provide recommendations for food and for other things to learn. We can’t wait to reconnect with him on our next trip. Also, he provided a great tip about our last day! We swung by the British Museum while we waited for our train at St. Pancras. It’s a free museum with some great artifacts.

Entertaining and informative - Nick is great with communicating all the details making it easy to find. The tour was very interesting and lots of fun. The time goes very quickly with Nick. He’s full of knowledge and happy to answer any questions - including other information about London. We got to see another part of London too. This was our third tour with Nick in two days. He’s very flexible, has a wide knowledge of a variety of tours and can even tailor personal tours. We did an amazing personalised rock and roll tour with him too Thanks Nick

We had a great time! - Nick was very knowledgeable about the era and made the tour about the women and not "who was the Ripper". Very entertaining and shared information about the neighborhood's history and growth.

Amazing tour! - This tour was amazing! Nick was extremely knowledgeable about the area and the story of Jack the Ripper. What I liked the most is how respectful he is to the victims when telling their stories. I can’t recommend this specific tour enough. Loved every minute of it!
