Martin was an excellent...

5.00Martin was an excellent guide to go back in time with. He kept the tour informative but fun. For a two hour it went quick. While we don’t know who Jack is from the tour we have our suspects and know a lot more about the victims.
Great for true crime fans

5.00Very interesting tour. Our tour guide (i think her name was Marina, she was from Bremen) was very friendly and delivered the historical info well, including some of the current theories on the unknown parts of it. As well as the Jack the Ripper history and places, you walk through some nice areas that are worth going back to after the tour. I was tired but happy at the end of it
BEST Darn Ghost Tour and Dark History Tour!!!

5.00WOW! What an amazing tour! This was not just any old Ghost tour, but a History and Dark History tour at that! We were amazed by Arthur's knowledge, facts and just plain enthusiasm for the subjects at hand. His personality is amazing! We loved our tour and pints. Gotta say We're super spoiled after this Ghost tour/Dark History Tour. I don't think anyone else can compare to him. If we find ourselves back in London we will be booking a tour again with him. DON'T MISS OUT ON THIS TOUR!!! Worth every penny! (Fyi this tour was a cold rainy day, and it didn't stop him or us from having a wonderful time!)
Super fun

5.00The tour was fun and Nick was engaging. Can’t believe how much material there is on the topic. Makes me want to rewatch From Hell.
Highly Recommended

5.00We attended the 5pm tour. It was top notch. Nic was out tour guide. Having been on many ghost tours and historical tours alike, we rate Nic at the very top of storytellers we have experienced. 5pm was a good time as well. We could see the buildings and landmarks described during the tour due to there stiĺl being daylight available, in March. We thought this tour was exactly as advertised. It dove into the Ripper murders through an investigative lense as well as exploring the socioeconomic situation of the time period. You get to learn a little about the victims as well, and their lives during this time in Whitechapel.
Who needs Netflix!

A fantastic insight to the Ripper and life in Victorian London

5.00A fantastic walking tour around Whitechapel and the City of London, full of facts, clues and theories on who the Ripper may have been (keep in mind the identity was never proven), and the story of each victim. The walk is at a steady pace, and along the way we learn about life in London and of the etymology of a number of phrases that came from life in the area at the time (hangover, for example). "murder" tours aren't usually my thing but I think this has triggered a new intrigue in learning about the dark history of cities
Superb tour with excellent information.
