our second tour with this company was the jack the ripper tour with jamie. he knew so much about jack the ripper and london history in general, we felt like we learned so much. he did an incredible job focusing on the lives of the women and sharing their stories. he had historical photos to share with us so that we could put a face with the names of the women. it was also interesting to visit the locations in his photos and compare how they look today. i would really recommend these tours to anyone looking to see something in london that they wouldn’t have just come across on their own. i’m sure all the tour guides are great—but jamie is exceptional!
The guide was excellent, full of interesting information. Very accessible. I would definitely recommend tour and guide George for full experience.
Thanks for joining our Jack the Ripper tour, I will make sure George sees your lovely review!
Great vibe, very nice. But it would be cool if the guide could’ve spoken a bit louder some times.
Thank you for your feedback. We're really pleased to hear you enjoyed the atmosphere of the tour. We also appreciate your comment about the volume. We'll pass it on to the guide, as it's helpful feedback and something we're always looking to improve. We hope you enjoyed the rest of your time in London.
Incredible tour! Ben was amazing, engaging and knowledgeable. He did a wonderful job bringing Victorian London to life, adding so much helpful context to the story. Balancing sensitivity with powerful storytelling can be a delicate tightrope walk. He did a great job. If you like murder mysteries, don't hesitate to book this!
Thank you for such a thoughtful review. We're delighted to hear how much you enjoyed the tour with Ben. As you say, the story of Jack the Ripper is about far more than the mystery itself, so it's important to us that our guides approach the subject with both historical context and sensitivity. We're pleased that balance came across so well. We'll make sure Ben sees your comments. Thanks for joining us, and we're glad the tour was a memorable part of your time in London.
Big Ben was quite funny and knowledgeable
Thanks so much for joining us in London!
The tour was an amazing experience, Ben shared the history and happenings of that time in a very interesting manner. It was my first time in London and I think I'll remember many places the next time I am here because of the history behind them.
Absolutely amazing! It was a bit longer than expected, but Ben was such a good storyteller that I didn't notice the time go at all! Really appreciated all the illustrations of crime scenes and recommendations at the end. Would absolutely recommend as a thing to do if you're into mysteries and victorian eran London!
Very informative! Our tour guide, big Ben (haha) balanced humour and attention to the experience very well. Very transparent company, I was offered to pay however much I could (really good deal for a student!).
jamie was great! very entertaining and full of information and tips on the surrounding area of the tour. the tour is free so tip your guide!!
Rob was brilliant - very insightful and helpful! Very much recommended!
