Moderate fitness is required for the walk. 4.91 from 223 reviews at €36 per person for 2h 15m. ## Overview Now using a radio transmitter and receiver so you won’t miss any of this amazing story. Numbers are strictly limited so you will not be following 35 or 40 people. 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.

And learn about Polly Nichols and just how she became Jack the Ripper's first victim. And right here discover our first suspect. 3. **Brick Lane is of course the curry capital of Great Britain but this is also t...** (20m) - Brick Lane is of course the curry capital of Great Britain but this is also the eastern boundary of where all five victims lived at the the time of the murders. Thrawl Street which ran from Brick Lane to Commercial Street where Polly Nichols stayed at Wilmott's Lodging House.... 4. **Christ Church Spitalfields** (15m) - The magnificent example of Nicholas Hawksmoor's work. Christchurch Spitalfields which stands right opposite the famous, or should that be infamous, Ten Bells Pub. A pub that gets its name from the church that stands across the road from it. A pub that the victims drank in. 5. **Old Spitalfields Market** (15m) - Where the American writer, Jack London, witnessed some of the appalling examples of abject poverty common in Victorian London. Old Spitalfields Market a centre of the community for centuries. 6. **Spitalfields** (20m) - This is where the worst street in London stood. And where the second victim, Annie Chapman was living up to the night she was murdered. It's also where Mary Kelly lived and was murdered. She was a very different kind of victim and she brings with her a third convincing suspect. ## Schedule - Runs: daily - Departures: 19:00 - Schedule last checked: 2026-10-01 - These are published departures, not a live seat count; availability is confirmed at checkout. ## Cancellation All sales are final.
