Excellent, interesting... - Excellent, interesting tour of Jack the Ripper sites. It was great to go back in time and there were also insights into the poverty of those Victorian times. Our guide was very engaging and knowledgeable. Her name is Marisol.

Interesting and fun! - We had a great time and learned so much from our tour guide, Milo. The tour content encompassed so much more than the events of Jack the Ripper as we learned about the social and political conditions of the time and how the City developed over time. And as gruesome as some of the stories were, Milo was a funny guy and kept it light. My kids really liked this tour.

Excellent tour by Ivan. - Ivan was an excellent tour guide. He had the basic things like safety, keeping our group together, and speaking loudly down perfectly. He knew so many interesting facts- things I’d never heard before. He kept the focus on the 5 women and did them justice. 5 stars!!

Ripper tour is a cut above - The guide Ivan was excellent. Knew his stuff. If your looking to fill a few hours, you’ll find nothing better. Walk the world famous streets of the worlds first serial killer, drink in the ten bells pub, and enjoy a great tour.

Great potential for an engaging story, but guide missed the mark. - There was so much potential for this tour given the history and location. Our guide simply didn’t tell a really powerful and compelling story and we stopped at locations and didn’t understand the significance. She seemed new so I think there were misses in her story.

small group, very individual tour - We had a good tour. Michael told the stories of the 5 victims of Jack the Ripper in a sensitive way. The group was small so ES was very personal. It was very interesting. Thanks for that!

Long walking tour. The... - Long walking tour. The guide Serena was great. Wear comfy shoes, bring a drink. You don't really see the places the murders occurred as modern buildings stand in their place. It was entertaining enough but could have been shorter.
