Itinerary
Today known for its street art and curry houses, Brick Lane was once part of London’s most notorious slum. As we walk through, you'll learn how crime, poverty, and desperation shaped the lives of those who lived here.
This cobbled street remains frozen in time, offering a glimpse into the world of 1880s East London. We'll explore how it connects to the Ripper’s movements and the life of Annie Chapman.
Puma Court is one of the eeriest alleys in Spitalfields, where shadows seem to linger. Standing here, we reflect on how vulnerable the victims were in these dim, quiet corners.
A chilling link to the case, this historic pub is where several victims were last seen alive. As we gather outside, we’ll recount what happened in their final hours.
A narrow passage with a dark history, Gunthorpe Street is where Martha Tabram met a violent end. Though not officially listed as a Ripper victim, many believe she was his first.
Here, we’ll examine a disturbing clue left behind after the double murder: a bloodied apron fragment and a cryptic chalk message. These details sparked fierce debate among investigators and historians alike.
This church stood at the edge of Whitechapel and offered shelter to many women during the Victorian era. It was a place of safety—just steps away from danger.

This was excellent - Ollie was a brilliant guide who really spoke about the social history and experience of the women rather than the brutality of these inexplicable crimes. Really enjoyed it!
Our tour guide, Laurie, was a fantastic story teller who captivated the audience with his high energy and knowledge of the Jack the Ripper murders.
