Jack is back - Our guide was extremely knowledgeable on the occurrences that happened in the summer and fall of 1888 In the White Chapel area of London. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants an in-depth look of the murders object the ripper.

Extremely exciting, interesting, and a little spooky! - The whole experience was memorable! I would definitely do it again with Lindsey if I ever go back to London! Lindsey’s style, knowledge, passion not only for telling the story but the way she has advocated for the victims was incredible! Her presentation with the photos of the before, and after kept you engaged the whole entire tour! You couldn’t wait to hear and see what was around the next corner.

Fabulous Serena 🥰 - Really enjoyed this tour. Serena was very knowledgeable and made the whole thing very interesting. I get bored easily and glaze over when I'm not engaged but no worries about this at all.....she was fab!!
I can imagine she does loads of these but her enthusiasm was consistent. Really learnt alot and loved the pictures we were shown too......would highly recommend this. We did have a small child (about 7) on our tour which I found inappropriate, I would say 12+ for age appropriation.

Great ! - My husband and I did this tour last night. Jenny was such a brilliant guide. She had so much information about the murders, how and where they took place. Accompanied by pictures/letters really brought the whole experience to life. A tour not to be missed !!

Definitely recommend - Our tour guide Serena was brilliant. Informative and fun. We had a great time. The real photos from the investigation were a great touch, albeit gorey! Only downside was the London city noise on a Friday night, however this was not the fault of anyone and it didn’t spoil the tour.
