London Jack the Ripper Guided Tour with Ripper-Vision

1.London Jack the Ripper Guided Tour with Ripper-Vision

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 4,840 reviews · 1 hour 45 minutes (approx.) · from $27Our pick

Walk through Whitechapel at 7:30 pm with a guide such as Rob, Mick, Andre, or Peter, using handheld Ripper-Vision projections to compare modern streets with Victorian scenes. Hear facts, theories, and victim stories over about 1 hour 45 minutes, ending near Spitalfields Market.

“My mother and I loved this Jack the Ripper Tour with Mick as our guide. He took us to all the notable sites, used the Ripper-Vision to bring 1888 Whitechapel to life, and shared captivating and respectful history throughout. He even did his best to keep us dry in the rain and walked us to the Liverpool Street Tube Station afterward to make sure we got back safely. A special highlight was Mick autographing his award-winning book, Jack the Ripper: One Autumn in Whitechapel. One of our favorite experiences in London — highly recommend!”
