Additional Information

In the year 1888, a disaster occurred: Five individuals were brutally murdered, with a vast number of others deeply affected. Although the murderer, Jack the Ripper, is now known worldwide, the stories of his victims have faded into the annals of time.

Your tour guide, a well-versed expert, will help you navigate the East End, uncovering vital pieces of evidence, investigating the locations of the murders, and delving into the victims’ narratives. You’ll get a sense of the fear that swept through Whitechapel in the 19th century as one of history’s most notorious murderers carried out his series of killings. Above all, you’re going to learn about the real victims, the women behind the dreadful headlines.

Broaden your knowledge and correct your misconceptions. Get on our “The 5 Women + Jack the Ripper” walking tour. It’s a unique and informative experience to navigate the fascinating city of London.

Amazing! - Just went on a tour with Jack! He was an amazing guide with passion for the subject! He did an amazing job and it was a really put together tour. He talked alot about the victims and even though I have read about the case for years I learned new things about them. Definitely recommend the tour!

Great for teenagers as well - Ivan was our guide and we really liked his way of storytelling. Super interesting facts as well. Even the kids (13 and 15) were really into it from start till the end. Highly recommend.

Great small-group tour with Ivan - Our guide Ivan was very knowledgeable and we liked the fact that he emphasized the life of the 5 victims rather than focusing on gory details.

Great Experience - I took the tour as part of a solo trip in London and can highly recommend for those who like crime stories. The tour was informative and also engaging. I don’t think this is for the people who are only interested in history of London but the tour does give a lot of information of on what East London was like back in 1888. Our tour guide was Jack (funny enough) and he has done an excellent job both explaining the story and showing Easy London to us. I ended up going to the area the day after to spend some time in the market etc.

Whitechapel Ripper insights - Very informative and comprehensive tour by very knowledgeable 'Ripperologist' Jack R. He emphasised the importance of remembering those unfortunate women who were so brutally murdered rather than the identity of the serial killer.

Jack the Ripper Tour. Great day out - The Guide ( Milo ) was very knowledgeable, kept it interesting and engaging. Although following a tragic event in London's history,it was really interesting to walk the course where all these murders took place.
