Traveler reviews
Interesting Tour
We had a great time on this tour. Our guide, Ivan, was knowledgeable and shared several interesting details about the Jack the Ripper case that we hadn't heard before. My only suggestion would be to spend a little more time walking closer to some of the key locations and pointing them out in greater detail. At times, it was difficult to fully appreciate the significance of certain sites from where we were standing. Overall, it was a fun and engaging experience. I especially enjoyed walking through Whitechapel and the City of London in late evening and learning more about one of history's most infamous unsolved mysteries. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone interested in the case.

An Interesting East End Evening
Jack (his real name, not making this up) was enthusiastic, funny, knowledgeable, and most of all compassionate about the victims - we appreciated the detail he went into about what was known of them, and framing the discussion in a way that reminded us that they were vulnerable women in an incredibly hard place, not just 2D characters. Thank you!
