    We met Carolina our tour guide at the allotted starting point, on a rather cold and extremely Windy afternoon. She took us to where the first woman was brutally murdered, explaining in great detail her demise, we then proceeded where the other murders took place. Carolina was a great raconteur, she told of the horrors with great feeling and empathy for those poor unfortunate women. We both learnt a lot that we were unaware of. Altogether great value for money with a perfect host

    Carolina was our tour guide and she was really good. She went through everything thoroughly and covered everything that we wanted to know. It was very interesting and she took us around every key part that was a factor in the story of Jack the Ripper. It was lovely to see some old parts of London and it felt like you were back in those days. Definitely recommend to anyone who is into history and likes to learn about the past times! Perfect for our last day in London

    The tour was a great comprehensive overview of Jack The Ripper and the east side of London. It seems the area has changed quite dramatically but that did not detract from the quality of the tour and our guide (I can't remember her name) was great at explaining the stories of the victims and the different possibilities of who Jack The Ripper. I would have no hesitation in recommending the tour to others.
