Da sapere su questa attività

On this 2 hour Jack the Ripper Tour, you will get to explore how an Autumn of Terror in 1888 can still send a shiver down your spine to this very day.

The discovery of a body on 31 August 1888 in London’s East End set in motion one of the most famous manhunts in criminal history. For over 120 years, Ripperologists and amateur sleuths have been trying (and failing) to discover the identity of the man known as Jack the Ripper!

Throughout the Jack the Ripper Tour, you will explore the historical background of the Whitechapel murders and their passing into a genre almost in their own right. We will examine how public perception of these gruesome but gripping murders has been shaped and compare that to the reality of 1888.

Our guide, John, was very entertaining and funny. He was knowledgeable about the topic, and stopped multiple times to encourage questions from the group. The pacing of the tour was good (so people weren't walking for too long). John had visual aides to help reinforce the story of Jack the Ripper. We attended this 6 hours after a 10-hour flight, and had no regrets about doing so. It kept our attention.

What can I say! Adrian was an amazing tour guide! He was very knowledgeable and witty. I would highly recommend this tour. It’s great for those who don’t know much, or know a lot and want to get right where the murders all took place. Adrian sucks you into the history and mystery.
