Did a private Jack the Ripper tour with Stephen. He’s an historian and author who gives you so much more than the Ripper story. His local history knowledge adds another dimension to the tour and made for a fantastic two hours. I know he does a load more walking tours in London and we’re signing up for more.

Could not have enjoyed this more! Stephen is so knowledgeable and wonderful at imparting that knowledge. Very informative and interesting. Stephen is a lovely chap and we couldn’t recommend him and his tour more.

After looking at all the Jack the Ripper tours and the complaints about nighttime crowds, I searched for a daytime tour and found Stephen. I could not be more happy with my selection. Knowledgeable, personable, and full of information, Stephen went above and beyond to make sure I saw and learned everything about the Ripper, Whitechapel, and the history of East London. Can't recommend highly enough!

The stories, films and documentaries you see all come together on this fascinating, complete Tour, featuring the places, the facts and thoughts, the feel and experiences of the period. The people involved and the records and what they reveal. The walk was extensive but easy to do, with a nice tea break en route. Stephen has researched the subject and added humour and the ability to paint pictures of the era, and most importantly, put that across in a way that we enjoyed thoroughly Thank you

Stephen was superb as a tour guide, friendly, funny and so knowledgeable, we had a private tour and he was so flexible with our requirements, adapting the start place and times to work around our needs. I would highly recommend.

What a fantastic tour, highly recommend!, our tour guide was Stephen who was so knowledgeable my husband and i were hanging on to every word he was saying and to visit the sites that Jack the Ripper had actually been to was mind blowing!. The great thing with Stephen is he is the "Oracle" of London so while we were walking round he was also pointing out other historic places, an example being he showed us where the great fire of London started, Pudding Lane, which without him we would never of seen. Nothing is too much trouble so if you need to stop of for a coffee/tea Stephen is more that happy to have a break and answer any questions you may have (ask him where you can buy the best hot chocolate!). As my husband and i not very familiar with London, what was really nice is that Stephen picked us up from our hotel as i have mentioned nothing is a problem, Stephen clearly loves his job as his knowledge and professionalism is apparent. We met as clients but left as friends. P.S Stephen is also an author and has written a few books on the subject so make sure you ask him about them as they are great reads.

We were escorted by Stephen, a simply superb guide. Knowledgeable and very communicative. He walked at a good pace and we were taken to all the key sites. Thank you Stephen it was memorable.

Great tour! Stephen was very informative and engaging, and despite the awful English weather kept our group interested and chatty. I had multiple colleagues from abroad who found the tour extremely interesting and were left with a keen interest in learning more! Would highly recommend this tour!

- We have earmarked this tour as especially safe during the Coronavirus outbreak due to generally quiet places that we visit where social distancing is generally not a problem. All of our tours are private so it is just you/your family and your guide. To make it easier and safer for all concerned we would suggest starting this tour a little later than the usual time, perhaps around 10.30-11am which allows us all to miss rush-hour. We are happy to still come to your hotel to meet you but for the moment we would suggest meeting us at the tour starting point. This allows you to arrive by a taxi or uber rather than public transport. Please feel free to wear masks throughout or at times during the tour. Your guide will also have a mask with them.
