Richard, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable and very entertaining. The tour was free with our Hop On Hop Off bus tour. My only complaint was the length, two hours. More

My wife and I enjoyed this Jack the Ripper Tour. It wasn't the best but the guide kept it interesting and he was very knowledgeable. Our Hop on Hop off bus ticket included a free walking tour and we were pleased with the tour for the value - actually it was better than the bus service we paid for. More

We booked a Golden Tour to Oxford, Stratford, Cotswolds and Warwick Castle and got a free walking tour. We selected this tour and our guide (wish I could remember his name) was a walking encyclopedia on this topic. In fact his best friend has a direct connection to the men most people think committed the crimes. More

We found the Jack the Ripper tour very enjoyable. Our guide was well informed and has been a Ripperologist for the past twenty years. You come as close as you possibly can to finding out who committed the crimes! More

I was very disappointed with this. We started the tour and the guide simply told us about London's history, which you could read off any book! 20 minutes in he finally mentioned something related to Jack the Ripper! Couldn't bear it anymore and just left! More

I live in London but thought this tour would be interesting as I might learn a lot and see parts of London I didn't know. I was unfortunately quite disappointed, though I still think this tour would be interesting for tourists. I knew a reasonable amount about Jack the Ripper, having seen television programmes etc over the years, and felt... More

We did this tour on 3 November 2011 and it was very interesting. The tour guides knowledge was exceptional. Having lived in London all of my life, it was interesting to walk down roads and streets I had never visited before and to learn history I never knew. There were about 20 in our tour which was very comfortable. I... More
