Whitechapel
The Jack the Ripper Taxi tours is set in the dark and murky street of Whitechaple and murder scenes. Your taxi driver guide will drive you around this are of London made infamous by Jack.
Spitalfields is a historic district in the East End of London, and it is closely associated with the infamous serial killer Jack the Ripper. During the late 19th century, the area was one of the poorest and most densely populated parts of London, and it was a hotbed of crime, prostitution, and social unrest. Listen to your guide tell you how Spitalfields area was also the site of several important developments in the investigation into the Ripper case, including the discovery of important evidence, such as the infamous "From Hell" letter, which is believed to have been written by the killer.
Lets take you on a trip back to 1888 and visit the remaining notorious locations where the victims of Jack the Ripper worked to earn their living.
The pub was in operation at the time of the murders and is said to have been a popular haunt for some of the Ripper's victims, as well as for the killer himself and his potential suspects. Two of the Ripper's victims, Mary Jane Kelly and Annie Chapman, were reportedly regulars at the Ten Bells, and it is believed that the last place Kelly was seen alive was leaving the pub with a man on the night of her murder. Some sources also suggest that the Ripper may have planned some of his attacks at the pub or used it as a base of operations.
