Jaime, our tour guide was phenomenal. He has a vast knowledge of not just the Jack the Ripper story but of London. He was able to convey the local history of the era, the buildings and, as was one of my favorite parts, the Roman Wall. I especially liked how he focused on the victims, delving into their history and lives which made their deaths that much more impactful. Very little was spoken about who Jack the Ripper was although I do now refer to him as 'Top hat, cloaky guy'. I highly recommend this tour and I especially recommend Jaime for any of the different tours he provides. Too notch!

The tour guide was knowledgeable and informative but I had a slightly different expectation. I thought the tour would be a little’darker’.
