We had a great experience on our trip in London. From there we did day trip excursions to various locations in England. These tours were are a bit rushed but overall very pleased. The only thing that was tricky was the tour does not bring us back to the original starting point that was walkable back to our hotel. It would be helpful to plan for this and the extra cost for the cab back to our hotel.
Also, one of the day tours was cancelled but they let us know right away and offered to reschedule. The Claremont hotel in London was fantastic.Location, concierge, breakfast bar and room were an A+ experience and would highly recommend. Michael was very available to help plan the trip and respond to my questions. I would use this tour company again in the future.

This private walking tour will transport you back to the dark and chilling world of the Whitechapel Murders in East London as we follow in the footsteps of the notorious and never-identified Jack the Ripper. This private tour (no crowds!) is the only tour that visits not just the location of every canonical Jack murder scene, but also several other key sites. During the tour, we will also learn about the myths and truths of Jack the Ripper and hear of the awful social conditions that the poor and ladies of Whitechapel had to survive in.
This tour is especially for those of you who want to do something different in London and don’t fancy walking Whitechapel at night or in a large group. Meeting you at your hotel or convenient tube station, we will either travel to Whitechapel or meet at Whitechapel Tube Station. Our private group will retread the cobblestones of the East End of London.
During the autumn of 1888, Jack the Ripper murdered at least five women. There were also several other horrendous killings before and afterward that may or may not have been carried out at the hands of the man voted "the worst Briton of all time". Whitechapel has changed a lot in the 126 years since Jack, who by luck, deviousness, and opportunity, wrought terror in the middle of the biggest city in the world and yet escaped time after time. However, much remains the same as well, and we will visit these landmarks of Whitechapel; the pubs that both Jack and his victims frequented, the lanes and alleyways where Jack stalked his victims, and the precise spots of some of these dastardly crimes. We’ll also visit the place where he left his only two clues which even now may be giving away his true identity.
We’ll learn what living in the East End was like in those days and visit what remains of Dorset Street, pivotal to the Jack The Ripper story and once the worst street in London and so bad that it now barely exists at all. See awful conditions that the residents, women and men alike had to endure. Discover the lucky breaks that Jack had and the misconceptions that the Police had of what the world’s first and still most feared serial killer would be like. Some of the buildings have changed; the streets may have new names, but the horror remains!
