About this tour, from the operator
Take a trip back in time to Victorian London and learn about the lives of those involved in the infamous case of Jack the Ripper - the detectives, the victims and the many suspects. Explore the East End and the mysterious killer who haunted the streets of Whitechapel in 1888.
Included free: The Ripperologist’s Companion Every guest on this walk gets our interactive case file. It holds the five women and who they actually were, ten suspects with the evidence for and against each one, the streets as they stood in 1888, a map, a timeline and three puzzles to solve. It opens before your walk so you can read up, but it keeps the murder sites sealed until you have walked the ground, so nothing is spoiled before your guide tells you. The moment your tour ends, the whole file unlocks and there are prizes for the guests who work the case properly. No app to download. It opens in your browser with your booking reference and the name on the booking. Nothing else to buy.
