    What you'll see and do

    1. Whitechapel

      Welcome to Tourope UK's Jack the Ripper Tour. In this tour, we will try to find out some answers. Who were the victims, the suspects, the gang leaders, and what was the reason for the brutal attacks that took place for two centuries? Oh, yes. Throughout the tour, you can learn more about the possible suspects who were believed to be behind the murders. Also hear more about Jack the Ripper’s five famous victims: Mary Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes and Mary Kelly. Some of the many famous Ripper-related sites covered in your tour include Gunthorpe Street, where Martha Tabram was seen walking with her killer on August 8th, 1888 before she was murdered, The Frying Pan Pub, where Mary Nichols was last seen, and The Ten Bells Pub, a site where many of Jack The Ripper’s victims were spotted before they were murdered. You will also take a stroll past the Goulston Street doorway, now home to the ironically-titled Happy Days Fish and Chip Shop; the only location where police found a clue related to the murders.

    Ripper from the past

    Jeremy our tour guid was simply outstanding! His theoretical knowledge was only surpassed by his eery ability to make us see out of his own eyes! It really felt like we went back in time. The man’s a treasure! Any more of him and we won’t need Hollywood productions! My boy and I had a blast! Thanks and never stop your forward momentum. Yahya Al Kurtass and co ;-p

    Excellent tour with passionate, knowledgeable guide

    ANGIE NORMAN was an excellent, knowledgeable tour guide. My teens were a little apprehensive about what to expect and thought they would find it boring. They told me to write this review because they thought it was fantastic! They learned so much, not only about Jack the Ripper but about Victorian England. They thought that Angie was passionate and had extensive knowledge about the subject that had them enthralled. They were most impressed. We definitely recommend it for teens and adults. I personally wouldn’t take younger children.

    A really interesting tour!

    Our guide Angie was really informative and the tour was interesting. I’ve done it before but it was still worth going and listening. She really brought it to life and I could see how passionate she is about the subject

    Jack the Ripper Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for London.

    How much does Jack the Ripper Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $667 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in London usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Jack the Ripper Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in London is not rushed.

    Is Jack the Ripper Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 42 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in London, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Jack the Ripper Tour?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Jack the Ripper Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Jack the Ripper Tour?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in London can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in London and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Jack the Ripper Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central London within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in London?

    +

    London's best attractions split cleanly: the museums are free and need no booking, so the paid market is about views, theatre and getting out of the city for a day. That makes value scoring unusually important here, and the Outty Ranking penalises anything charging premium prices for access you could get for nothing. On Outty we rank every London experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Great British Rock and Roll Walking Tour, Soho Music & Historic Pubs Tour, London Small Group Tour of Historical Pubs. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit London?

    +

    May to September for long evenings, December for the Christmas markets. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in London?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Jack the Ripper Tour?

    +

    Included: Snacks. Not included: Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Jack the Ripper Tour include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 498 listed pickup locations in and around London. Be ready about 5 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Jack the Ripper Tour offered in?

    +

    It is offered in German, English, Italian, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Jack the Ripper Tour?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Jack the Ripper Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Wheelchair accessible; Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; Transportation options are wheelchair accessible; and All areas and surfaces are wheelchair accessible. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Jack the Ripper Tour if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in London. Standard cancellation terms apply.

    What do travelers say about Jack the Ripper Tour?

    +

    Across 4 reviews averaging 5.0 out of 5, recurring themes include knowledge and storytelling, the guide, good for families. Reviewers describe the commentary as informative rather than scripted.
