About the experience
Experience a journey back in time to the Victorian era in England with a Jack the Ripper tour of London's East End. These walking tours will take you to all the crucial locations that were involved in this infamous case of multiple murders that shocked the nation back then and continue to intrigue people even today. Don't miss the chance to delve deeper into one of the most notorious criminal cases in history! It's 1888 in the Spitalfields area of London, and what became known as the Autumn of Terror is starting to unfold. A 'Lady of the night' has been murdered by having her throat cut and the police have found dismembered body parts. The grisly discovery doesn't stop there. More bodies are found as time goes on, yet no one has a clue as to the identity of the serial killer or even what he might look like. The media is in a frenzy over the attacker nicknamed Jack the Ripper...or The Whitechapel Murderer...or the Leather Apron. This real-life tale, although gruesome, is truly gripping and has yet to be solved despite numerous theories over the years. It has inspired works of fiction, TV shows, and films. Some of the locations used in these adaptations can be seen on your walking tour. During the tour, you will receive inside information about Jack the Ripper and be privy to all the details of the case. You will walk the same streets where the murders occurred, and visit the dark passages and sombre alleyways that offer a fascinating glimpse into life in 19th-century London and the world of Jack the Ripper.
