Jack the Ripper Tour with Ben was superb - I'd been wanting to do this tour on my last trip to the UK but never got round to do it. The guide Ben knew his facts and figures and brought to life a pretty grim story. The group size was nice as so many groups we saw in Whitechapel looked pretty big. Thanks Ben.

Excellent! Highly recommend Ian! - Being in a small group was brilliant. Ian was absolutely fabulous! He was very knowledgeable, great humour and really got us ‘in the zone’ he was happy to answer any questions and we even discussed possible suspects and had fun! It went dark during the tour - which only added to the atmosphere. Ian had a really high regard for our safety as he was mindful of where we went at one particular part. Thanks Ian! Great tour. Highly recommend.

Knowledgeable Jack the Ripper Guide - Ben was super informative and encouraged our questions and discussion. He allowed us to theorize and debate the topic.

Philip the tour guide is a legend - Today I was nicely presented with a tour from Philip without an e on the end specifically. Although he doesn’t like being called Phil for short his jokes are very hilarious with his interesting facts about Jack the Ripper this man deserves a raise and a house in Dubai and a grand throne. Very pleasant experience we need more Philips without the e on the end in the world.

Informative but boring. - The tour was informative but consisted of a series of facts delivered in a very boring way. Tour leader hummed and hawed quite a bit and gave us the information in a drab monotone way. Also stood too long in one place many times.

There was no visit - No one showed up for the tour. We waited over a half hour. An email was sent out about cancelling brit icon tour but did not say it was the jack the ripper tour so ignored it. Not impressed
