An interesting evening - Benita was excellent - very informative on an extremely cold January evening. We criss-crossed the area discovering streets that you wouldn't even know were there learning a lot about the crimes committed by Jack the Ripper. Facts were told with dignity and respect for his victims.

A great way to spend the morning. - Very knowledgeable guide. Interested in her story. She made the victims real and was sympathetic to their plight. Very good to hear a differently perspective. Also fun quizzes and hear about the suspects of the time.

Jack Living Up to His Name - How they slept when they had a few pence vs when they barely had enough.. Also when The Ten Bells name was briefly changed. Bettina was a very good tour guide!

An absolute MUST with Guide Bettina - Guide Bettina is warm hearted, kind and well-informed, little bit nervous tough (says "you know" very often). Tour was 2.5h - for this price a MUST if you come to London. The group was around 15 people. Other tours we saw had 30+ people (e.g. the ones that are advertised near the underground station of Aldgate in White Chapel District). It felt private and there was always enough time for questions, that were answered competently all the time. Attention... graphic images of dead bodies are shown on a tablet during the tour. Really interesting!
