We start the adventure at Whitechapel Station because that's where Jack the Ripper started. With the help of the FBI Special Agent John Douglas's 1988 profile of Jack the Ripper and Scotland Yard's 2008 geographical profile you will explore the Jack the Ripper mystery from his first unsolved murder in Buck's Row to his last in Dorset Street. You will discover the victims' story. Who they were. Why they were targeted. How they were killed so swiftly and silently. It's a truly fascinating story that goes beyond the cliche of the toff in his top hat and opera cape seeking his next victim among the raddled fourpenny whores of Whitechapel. Blanketed by fog, London was 'The Big Smoke' home to a silent and invisible serial killer we call Jack the Ripper. Join me.

We had a great time on or tour last night! Richard kept us well entertained! He had lots of new information that we hadn’t heard before. It was a compassionate side of the story, dealing fairly with the women involved. We all had a great time, all the while seeing a side of London we hadn’t experienced before! Highly recommend this tour for a fun evening!

Richard is an amazing tour guide! Very personable and welcoming. He has so much passion and knowledge for his tour that I could have listened to him for hours longer! The tour is especially good for those hard of hearing (which is why I booked this specific tour) as he has over-ear listening devices which can be adjusted with the volume and help to drown out background noises. I'd highly recommend Richard's tour - such an informative and immersive experience

Really interesting tour from Richard who gave a different perspective rather than just repeating the information available elsewhere. We liked the small group size and the headsets which made hearing what Richard was saying so much easier.

Richard is very personable and ever so knowledgeable. He'll make you think about what happened and what might be scenarios to the crimes.

Richard's depth of knowledge is remarkable. He not only recounted the Jack the Ripper tale but also questioned the accounts and statements from the period and gave his own thoughts. You won't find a more informative guide. Absolutely brilliant!

Very informative and extremely interesting. Well worth the time. Richard is very congenial. The group was not too large.

The tour was great...very interesting, and Richard shared lots of information. The group size was very conducive for sharing and asking questions. One suggestion: Break up the amount of time for information sharing. We stood in one spot for long periods of time.

Richard is so much fun and we had a blast! He gave us so much history around the Jack the Ripper case and it was engaging and fun—even with some heavy material to cover. We loved the small group and the headsets were genius. We didn’t miss a word of Richard’s talk because of that! Two hours went by so quickly—a good walk, a great story, clear passion and work has gone into this. Thanks for a wonderful time!

This was a very informative tour and our guide Cova was a witty and very knowledgeable Ripperologist. The tour itself was a pleasant walk and it left us in the mood to do some more research on old Jack.
