London – Jack the Ripper-Kleingruppentour

Richard leads the group with knowledge and charisma. Would definitely recommend to others.

Richard, is a very formative tour guide, that didn’t miss a beat in telling the mystery of Jack the Ripper 👏🏻👏🏻

We loved our Jack the Ripper tour with Richard. He's a true storyteller. He doesn't sensationalise the facts for the sake of a tour. He's researched more thoroughly than your average tour guide and helps you look deeper into understanding what actually happened, particularly by telling the truth about the women who were murdered and gifted at explaining.

I work in true crime in the US and thought I knew a lot about the case of Jack the Ripper, but I learned so much more information on this tour! It was creepy and fascinating to see the actual locations where the crimes occurred. Richard took us a different route than most other tour groups were on, so we beat the crowds and actually ended up seeing more than we would going the typical routes that the larger tours took. The smaller group setting allowed us to ask more questions and interact with Richard during the tour. His knowledge about each victim and location was impressive and he presented his theories along with some of the other popular theories about what really happened. I thoroughly enjoyed this experience and I'm excited to recommend it to others traveling through London who also enjoy true crime!

Richard's walk is well thought out, informative, and fun. He thinks through the little logistical things (like ear pieces for everyone so that he can talk while you walk instead of just at the stops or giving time to enjoy areas that evoke the same vibe as murder sites that are no longer accessible) while delivering a lot of information in an easily understandable talk. We enjoyed it so much we went home and picked up his book for even more Richard!

Richard does a great job. He's friendly and very knowledgeable. Good instructions sent on meeting place and time. The tour went very smoothly with the only exception being the blue tooth devices occasionally had interference but he made sure to repeat anything missed. Group size of 15 was good. Great details, lots of information and we ended up with plenty to think about and discuss. I'm glad we went with him.

Excellent, highly knowledgeable guide who clearly loves what he is doing and fascinated by the subject matter. We had a group of 6 ranging in age from 16 - 78 and the tour was enjoyed by all. Be aware this tour lasts just over 2 hours and involves a small amount of walking with often prolonged standing in one location as he discusses the events that took place at that particular spot. Come prepared for weather and the understanding of conditions with the tour.

My husband and I went on Richard's Jack the Ripper Tour and found it very interesting. Richard was a wonderful guide and gave a new insight into the history, victims and possible suspects. It was fascinating to see some of the actual locations where these horrific murders took place (although some buildings are no longer there).

We'd been on a Jack the Ripper tour more than 20 years ago and enjoyed it very much and had forgotten most of the details so decided we'd do it again. We shouldn't have chosen this tour. The presentation was extremely confusing, who the suspects were, the people who'd written books about it over the years, etc. We walked through a very busy area. The guide stood for several minutes and spoke at the start of the tour and even with the headsets it was very hard to hear him. Then he finished in a similar, very busy area that made for a very poor situation as far as being able to hear him. Boring, confusing, we "endured" it for 2 hrs. Definitely didn't enjoy it. As we left we chatted with another couple on the tour, they felt the same. The next day we were on a different tour and a family told us about their wonderful "Jack" tour. Same night, different guide, different company. So, we're writing this because your vacation time and money are valuable and we want people to have the information to help them make a better choice than we did.

The Tour was so well organised and the History of each location given was perfect. The length of the Tour was just right given. The admission fee was perfect, you can’t argue with that price. If you haven’t already been on this, I would certainly recommend it.
