Very informative and pleasent tour! Our guide, Nic was wonderful. Well prepared, funny and nice!:-) we visited spots in London we would have not gone without the tour. The Whitechapel district has a very special athmosphere and lots of history worth to know. Not only about Jack the Ripper, but about the Victorian London. I went with two adolescents and they loved it!

Our tour guide Milo was very knowledgeable and was happy to answer questions and talk about these macabre events . Despite the macabre nature of the experience, it was worth the visit and the walking around the places that these events occurred.
