Traveler reviews
Wonderful experience
Our tour guide Sinead was amazing!!!!! She was so animated and gave so many details. Put everything in historical context and stressed the victims' lives too. I initially thought the Ripper vision sounded kind of hokey but it was very good - pictures relative to the story, just like a slide show. The Whitechapel area is full of Ripper tours, and she was great at speaking loudly and keeping our group apart from the others. May be a little intense for younger ones.
A must do for crime enthusiasts
Thank you Mick for your passionate, knowledgeable and theatrical recount of “Jack the Ripper” turnaround Whitechapel area. Your insight and story telling sparked an interest in the topic, look forward to reading your book.
Great tour
Sinead was an excellent tour guide! Great knowledge and story telling skills. Highly recommend the tour.
Was okay, but needs some Rip!
Great information on Jack the ripper but not a scary or themed tour. The Guide was in regular clothing, bright atmosphere and used the ripper vision minimally, however it did provide useful context. Lots of walking and standing at the end of the day had most participants sitting in the ground. It would have been really nice to stop at one of the pubs that was frequented by The ripper victims for the time period like the “Ten Bells pub”. Overall could use some more theme and experience other than information.
Great walking tour
Great tour with a very knowledgeable guide. It was a fun way to learn some history and explore a few neighborhoods at the same time. Our whole group loved it.
