Went on the tour Saturday 28th August, Steve was our guide. He was very knowledgable regarding both Jack the Ripper and the surrounding areas. He was funny and tried his best to make the mood light, considering it was raining. Fantastic tour, would definately reccommend!!!! But next time I will definately take an umbrella to avoid getting wet :)

DW, Brighton
Dickie was a great guide, knowledgeable, cheerful and welcoming on the anniversary of the first of the murders in Whitechapel. I've been on a number of these tours over the years with different operators, and I have to say the Ripping Yarns tour is by far the best thought out and factual. That said...

The guides state the murders happened at weekends - Polly was killed on a Thursday night/Friday morning, as was Mary Kelly. Not *quite* the weekend...

I'll see you next year on the anniversary. And yes, I'll bring some more flowers for Polly.

Lee, Folkestone, Kent
awesome tour with Steve last night, He was an excellent guide, witty and knowledgable. Thanks Steve

Karen Hooker, Devon, England.
We had a fantastic tour, very very informative and Dickie was a font of knowledge. He brought the atmosphere to life and added a little of his own humour to make the evening a wonderful experience and one we will remember for a long time. Thanks to Dickie Dover, you were great!!!!

Mark, Terrie & Beth Jackson, Barnsley, South Yorkshire.
A very informative, entertaining and gruesome tour. Chris was knowledgeable and his delivery style was both gripping and humerous. I would certainly recommend this tour to anyone visiting London.

Nikki, england

Had some spare time did not know what to do, came across this tour by accident but we are glad we did ken our guide was brilliant his knowledge first rate. he also works at the tower of london so will visit that. ken thanks

AndyMac, New Zealand
This is the tour for you! I'd done one other Ripper tour with a bunch of work colleagues, and so came along to the East End trek with guide Dickie expecting more of the same. How wrong was I? Very. Here's a guide who gives an incisive, gripping and entertaining presentation of events in the Autumn of 1888. He takes you to the key spots, Buck's Row, Mitre Square, Dorset Street, George's Yard (what's left of it), Spittalfields Market, and St Botolph's Without Aldgate (some of those names have since changed) and many others. If you're after a rip-roaring yarn told by an informed, audible guide and mingled with the still-lingering smell of the East End mean streets, then look no further.

Donna & Phil, Staffordshire UK
We were only in London for a couple of days and we choose this tour as the reviews were great and it did not disappoint. Ken our tour guide was fantastic, entertaining and very informative he kept the whole group engaged throughout the tour and we had a brilliant time. We would definitely recommend this tour.

Jeanette and Naomi, Swindon
We did the tour on 3rd August. We had a great time, not only did we learn all there is to know about the RIPPER but had a tour of a part of London we had never seen before and had other points of interest shown to us. The guide was excellent. Thanks.

Brendan and Nicole, Southend on Sea
We'd like to say thank you to Simon who was our Tour Guide on 7th August 2010. He was very entertaining, knowledgeable and made the 2 1/2 hour tour fly by. We had a great time and would definately reccomend this tour to other people who have an interest in Jack the Ripper or Victorian history in London. Although we had some knowledge of Jack the Ripper, Simon was able to tell us facts we had not heard before and his story was accompanied by interesting handouts and photos from the actual case. Many thanks again.

Tess and Judy, Sleepy Hollow
This was our first time in London, and we were so thrilled during this tour. We had a fantastic experience that we will not soon forget. We would like to say a personal thank you to Ken, our tour guide who had such contagious enthusiasm. Thank you for a great time.

Geno,Mel,Teresa and Trevor, Gloucester
We did the tour on 23 July 2010 and what a fantastic time we all had.Our tour guide was Chris who was so enthusiastic and very informative and knowledgeable,we would recommend this tour to all visitors to London.

Ros Burton, Hertfordshire, UK
What a gem! Chose this Ripper walk because of the rave reviews and it did not disappoint. Had a thoroughly enjoyable and entertaining walk with Dickie, the brilliant tour guide. He took us through the streets of the East End with not only stories about the Ripper but lots of other fascinating stuff about the area. This walk is a MUST if like me you have East End family history as Dickie really sets the scene of Victorian London. What was exceptional about this tour, was that Dickie (unlike so many other tour guides in London) had so much enthusiasm and really seemed to enjoy what he was doing and that is what makes this walk stand out. You pay at the end of the tour and before you start you wonder whether people will drift off, this was not the case, everyones attention was held from the start to finish and we all gladly paid our £7 each which was £7 very well spent. Would definately recommend.

Tina and Graham McKie, Midlands
16th July 2010 - What a fantastic start to our weekend in London. We had picked up a leaflet for this tour the last time we were in London, you read so much about the events of 1888 in Whitechapel but I always wondered what the streets were actually like and how did someone get away with such grissly crimes. We were not disppointed with the tour - it was great. Dickie our tour guide had a wealth of local knowledge, he was fun and just a genuine nice guy. Thanks Dickie for a great evening we have already recommended the tour to a number of our friends.

Tina, Birmingham
Went on this tour for my birthday with family and our tour guide was Dickie. We all really enjoyed this tour and Dickie definitely made it entertaining and informative at the same time. Anyone considering which tour to take should definitley take this one. Thank you for a brilliant end to the day!

Angie and Robyn, Norfolk and London
We had a great tour with Ken last night. He was such fun and a wealth of information. His sense of humor was great and he kept everyone engaged. He also cleared up a few questions of how Beefeaters got thier name...
Thanks Ken!
Highly Recommended Tour!
Angie and Robyn!

Jennie and Dave, Sheffield
This was a fantastic tour, we both really enjoyed it thank you. Our guide Dickie was extremely knowledgeable and I learnt lots about London in general as well as about Jack the Ripper.

Ray & Linda, Cambridge UK
We had a fabulous tour last night (17 July) and our tour guide Dickie was excellent...very entertaining and extremly knowledgable. If your thinking of a Jack the Ripper tour this is the one...well worth £7.00....thank you Dickie :-)

Jay Marsden, Boston, USA
I went on the ripper tour last week whilst in London. I cannot give to high a praise the guy who took around was called Ken. He was very informative about Jack the Ripper, subject knowledge was exellent and he gave information on the area and other pieces of information that made our trip go a lot better. I reccommend this tour now to all my friends. Trust me for £7 you cannot get better deal for money. Ken Thanks for a great time.

Joey Mack, Seattle, USA
I had to get on here and share my experience about this tour. It definitely exceeded my expectations. Myself and three other grad students went on this tour and had a great time. Our tour guide was Dickie, and he is the man. The guy gave us a rather creepy tour, but was also quite hilarious.

I would definitely recommened this tour and recommend Dickie. There were probably 20-30 people on our tour, and our guide did a good job at engaging everyone and keeping everyone close and making sure everyone had a good time. When I bring family back to London to visit we will go on this tour and request. Dickie. Thanks guy!

Dara Rosenberg, USA

I am writing this note now to tell you of the EXCEPTIONAL experience I had at the Tower of London. I spent a great deal of time there and took a tour with a
Beefeater named Dickie Dover. He was exceptional (as I'm sure all of your men
are).
The knowledge I recieved at the tour was informative, good natured, and simply all around wonderful.
My experience was so brilliant, that I decided on the spot to change my plans for the day just so I could be back in time for him to give the Ripping Yarns tour later that evening.

I had not planned on doing this before hand. Once
again, it exceeded my expectations. I was truly honored to spend the evening again with Dickie and be given another truthful, honest, historically accurate all around splendid tour.

Additionally, Dickie spent time talking with me (I tend to hang near the front...especially when traveling alone). I expressed to him that when not traveling I spend my time in the US working as a science teacher.

As I currently had no "official" plans for my time in London he offered what turned out to be some of the greatest advice of my trip.

He recommended that I take one of my days and head down to one of his favorite areas...Greenwich. I walked away with more knowledge than I thought possible, my picture on the Prime Meridian, and splendid photos of the former Brittish Naval College. It was one of my second most favorite days in London (only the day I spent at the tower on Dickies tour was better)!

Additionally, as I mentioned before, I was traveling alone. I obviously I booked a hotel (on the cheaper side) and was unsure if It was in a very safe neigborhood.
Dickie asked whereabouts I was staying at and gave me good solid information that made me feel safer about where I was staying (The Chelsea Guest House near Vauxhall station).

It put my mind at ease and I enjoyed my London experience ever so much more.

Please give Dickie my sincerest gratitude (print this and give it too him if at all possible...or put it in a personell file as well!). I am so honored to have spent time on both his tours and Iam deeply in debt to all of you for the peace of mind and exceptional experience I recieved.

Many many thanks! Dara Rosenberg

PS... I have also sent a letter to Rick Steve's USA guide book which I know you had him on your tour reciently and I hope he knows what a fab tour this is!! and he keeps it in the next edition!

Stephanie Harrison, Sevenoaks, Kent
Tonight, we experienced the tour with Ken. Not only was it highly entertaining but my friends and I found Ken kind, friendly and very charming.

We had a great night and for that we would like to say "thanks Ken."

We hope to see you at the Tower one day!

Bryan, New Jersey, USA

Wendy & Pat, Shropshire UK

Sarah Linley & Andy Gallacher, West Yorkshire, UK
We did the tour on 22nd June 2010 with Ken.

Left the Tower of London at 17.45 that day and the last Yeoman of the Guard we saw was Ken, what were the chances that he was also going to be our guide for the Ripper Tour!!!

Brilliant tour, brilliant guide, well worth it. Factual, interesting, funny – what more can we say?

We looked at other tours but this one was DEFINATELY the best. One of the most entertaining nights ever and VERY memorable. Well worth the money and time!

Kevin Nordin, London, England (and Red Deer, Canada)
I did the tour with my sister on June 9 and it was great. We had a nice American family in our group and the Mother always asked questions that in turn embarrassed the daughter. The following day I seen them in the Green Park tube station! What are the odds?!?

Angie and Robyn, London

Hi Ken,
We were on your tour on 3rd June and loved every minute of the two hours and ten minutes entertainment, information and, (importantly), humour that you gave us. It was every good as the expensive activities in London.......... no, BETTER! We would (and have done already) recommend this tour to everyone.
Thank you very much for all our enjoyment of that evening.

This tour is awesome!! I would highly recommend it to people travelling to london and for people who live in london. Kevin was a great tour guide because he REALLY got into the story and kept everyone interested. He asked questions and put people on the spot when you least expect it which really made the tour because he really got into it!! Although the weather was rainy I had a blast so if you are looking for something different to do, I def recommend this!!

Marine, Tower Hill
Absolutely awesome!!! Chris is a brilliant guide and made the tour really lively. It was very obvious we were having a better time than the groups we met along the way! Don't hesitate!

Cold and windy Sunday 2nd May
Thank you Steve!!! We had a brilliant time exploring the Whitechapel murder haunts with you. You brought them to life in such a colourful way. So glad we found your company, which we have already recommended to friends!! We saw the rest but chose the best!!
This was definitely a highlight of our weekend!!!
Look forward to joining other tours in the future and maybe seeing you in your 'day job!'
Many thanks
Nina and Jo!!

Kelly Mongini , UK
Hi, Myself and a group of people from work joined the tour on Thursday the 6th May 2010. I wanted to let you know what a fantastic time we all had and thank you for a wonderful experience. Our Beefeater Simon was a great guide and kept us all amused/scared/entertained/informed and safe the whole evening. His wit and enthusiasm had us hooked from the beginning! I certainly learned a few things and I know that all of us will be recommending the tour. Many thanks again for a wonderful time. Kindest regards,Kelly.

Jared and sophie, Australia

Cristina, Mexico City
I loved the tour. I went on it about a month ago and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The guide was very friendly and always willing to answer all your questions. He spiced his story up with lots of details and not-so-common anecdotes. Highly recommendable!!!

Maria, London
Thursday 29th April 2010 tour - Kev was an excellent Guide and Master of Ceremonies. Thoroughly enjoyed the tour that made well-known streets and city landmarks come to life in the Victorian times.

Suzanne, Canada
My girlfriends and I from Canada did the Jack the Ripper tour on Sunday April 25th with Ken and we were definitely impressed with everything he told us about 'Jack'. He had a way of keeping our attention as he continued to tell the story... he even spooked us a few times with his loud frightening comments!! Other tour guides walked by with dull, boring approach - Ken made it exciting and mysterous!! Highly recommended and VERY satisfied with the tour!! I would absolutely recommend it to ANYONE who's in for some mysterous and exciting fun - it's a must see in London to us.
Suzanne

Bonnie :), Manchester, England
I came down to London on the 19th of April just for this sort of thing and well, I got 100% more than I expected. The very lovely, (and far better looking than Johnny Depp I might add! ;) ) Chris was our guide. He was fantastic at setting the scene and knew so much about the Ripper and the history surrounding it I was litterally hanging on his every word. He only gets marked down for taking the micky out of me being a Manchester girl! Other than that, 10 out of 10 on all fronts! I seriously recommend it to wannabe ripperologists and the mundanely curious alike and I won't hesitate to come again the next time I come down, thank you!

Linda Cheape, Falkirk Scotland
What a treat!! Dickie Dover was the perfect guide and storyteller. We enjoyed it immensley and would recommend it to everyone!.

mo karamat, New Jersey, USA
I was in London a few weeks back, and went on this tour with Steve- He was great! His knowledge of Jack and his escapades was fun, and interesting. Steve's delivery was also great fun! Highly reccomened tour!

Michael & Casey, London
AWESOME! Our guide last night, 21st April, really turned the whole tour into a great investigation/story, we was completely drawn in! Not just showing us the sites of the murders, but really painting a real picture of the time for us - thank you so much!! Druitt - GUILTY!

ANDY LEWIS, BRISTOL
WENT ON THE TOUR LAST WEEK ( 12/04 ),A REALLY ENJOYABLE AND INTERESTING WALK. DICKIE WAS SUPERB, HE DIDN'T JUST TALK HE ENTERTAINED AND INFORMED US NOT ONLY ABOUT THE RIPPER BUT LOCAL KNOWLEDGE AND HISTORY ALSO. WOULD RECOMMENDED THIS TOUR ABOVE ANY OTHER. NOT SURE I TOTALLY AGREE WITH DICKIE AS TO WHO JACK REALLY WAS, BUT IF WE ALL AGREED THERE WOULD BE NO MYSTERY.

Ana, Essex
I loved our tour. Dickie, our guide was amazing---he made the tour extremely fun with his wit and at the same time we were learning so much from all the information.

I would absolutely recommend this tour; you will not only be educated about the Jack the ripper murders but you will have a blast doing it...

Remember...6:45 pm^_^

Sue, Surrey
Great evening , would recommend this to anyone, very good value for money.
Dickie our guide should have been a actor he put so much
effort into everything he said it brought the whole Jack the Ripper story to life. I learnt alot about where old sayings came from, which now make sence. If your thinking of doing this tour just do it!! or you will miss a great night out.
Thanks again Dickie.

Philip L, London
Dickie was our guide and was excellent. Full of factual history and humour. 10/10. Would recommend you 100%. thanks very much for your efforts and great to see ex service personnel doing this job.

Sophie, London
I've been interested in Jack the Ripper for a long time and the tour was fantastic! I learnt lots of new things about Victorian London and the murders and it was so interesting to see all the sites of where the girls were actually found. I went on Fri 9th April, and our tour guide was Kev. He was so interesting and had some good jokes too! Would really recommend the tour to anyone, and for £7, I thought it was excellent value! Many thanks!

Charlotte O'Shaughnessy, Bristol, United Kingdom
I went on the tour on the 9th April with my mum, it was bloody fantastic (no pun intended)! We had Kev, he was amazing and really made it feel like we were in 1888. When i came away from the tour I had goosebumps everywhere even in my bones, but it was a great feeling!! I would recommend this to everyone!! DO IT DO IT DO IT!!!!!

Jack Wilson, Kent
Took the tour last night and had a very good tour guide named Steve he showed us all the scenes of the murders and his knowledge about the cases made it very intresting.He also had a lot of good jokes

Yours Truly

Jack The Ripper

Hi !!! I would like to say a big thank you to Chris who, the 23rd of february, made me learn so much things about Jack.. My study about him at school have been much easier !!!
Merci beaucoup !!!
Nathalie

Caroline Jennett, Potters Bar, Herts
I went on the tour last night with my partner and my two teenage boys. It was great, we learned where the expression 'ten bells of sh**' comes from, the origins of 'rule of thumb' and why prostitutes are known as 'Toms'. Dickie, our guide, was great! As well as all the London knowledge, he kept the Americans informed as to where their Liberty Bell was made, and where the tea boxes for the Boston tea party came from. And we were taken right into the heart of Whitechapel, very atmospheric! My only criticism is that Dickie said he would tell us why Mary Kelly was able to run up six weeks arrears of rent, but I can't remember him saying. Is it a ploy to get us on another tour?? Please tell me! Thanks very much, it was a great end to our day out!

Camille, Toulouse, France
I did the tour last Tuesday with Kevin. I was with my boyfriend and we both found it great! (despite the cold and the intermittent rain!) It was very funny and also very informative. We really appreciated seeing some of the sites we knew the name of but had ever been to like the Ten Bells or Miller's Court (even Diagon Alley, which was a delightful surprise !).
I was advised to do this tour by one of my friends who did it, and I am not disappointed! I will definitely tell other people to go too. Thank you very much, Kevin!

Sally & Sheridan Haley, Leeds
Our tour guide was Kev, he was informative and fun. This was a surprise for my daughter's 21st (she is a criminology student) we loved it. Thank you

Amore Heydenrych, London, England
We went on the tour with Kev, and it was great! He made everything clear and the jokes were amazing. Thank you very much!

danielle and craig, rutland

Malcolm Lee, Leigh on sea,Essex
Fantastic tour.Dickie our guide was excellent with tales of the time.Easy to imagine the hardship and poverty,how things have changed in 120 years.

Louise Dinsdale, Basildon, Essex
Really enjoyed the tour tonight! Our tour guide Steve was very good and yes, we enjoyed your jokes!! Will definatly go again and reccommend to friends.

Jenny Hall, Shoeburyness. Essex.
I did the Jack the Ripper Tour on Wednesday 24th March with Dickie. What a fantastic tour, gripping to the end and also a fantastic tour guide who certainly knew the subject inside out and added lots off little extras as a bonus.
I will certainly do this tour again when family come to stay from Canada. I know they will all thoroughly enjoy it and so will I.

Gavin, Neath, Wales
Brilliant tour of the east end that really gave a true depiction of life in the 19th century. Endless facts and stats of the ripper mystery that filled all the gaps that other stories and documentaries have lacked. Dickie not only had a limitless knowledge of the ripper story, but this tour was also full of historical facts about London and the way the city has grown and changed through time. Don't let a wet drizzly night put you off, it adds to the occasion. Brilliant.

Sarah Schofield, Southend, Essex
I have just returned from one of the Jack the Ripper tours with this group, and arranged a private tour with 45 people.

Wow is all I can say, our guide "Dickie" what a fab guy and very very informative, he did not slip up at all with his talk, it just flowed from his mouth.

I will be recommending this to all my friends via facebook and even other groups I run in London.

It is worth every penny of the £7 each and what a great form of exercise, 2 1/4 hours of walking around the dark streets of London. I did at one point wish I was back in the times of Jack the Ripper, but it was only at the mention of the GIN!

Well done Dickie and thank you to your company for such an enjoyable trip.

We will see you soon with more victims! hahahaha

Soo and Ian, Essex
Can highly recommend this tour to anyone with an interest in old London and, of course, Jack the Ripper. We've read the books, seen the films and watched the documentaries but Dickie brought fresh insight, humour (those well timed pauses) and kept us all (40+ in the group) riveted for the whole tour.

mick anderson, essex
Bloody interesting tour, very informative guide (Dick), who added humour in his prestation. a great way to spend 2hrs

johl and frinds, Holland
We had an excelent tour with ken last week. we now understand about how Ripper worked and escaped the hands of police. very good

The Gannon Family, Alabama, USA
My husband and I had been to London previously and done a Jack the Ripper walking tour with one of the other companies. On this trip we brought our teenage daughter, who wanted to to a Ripper tour. We decided to go with Ripping Yarns and I have to say, we were not disappointed. Our guide, Chris, gave us an amazing experience. We had a large crowd, and every person on that tour paid at the end. Thanks Chris -- you were great!

Robin Tuttle, North Carolina
The tour was well done. There were a lot of great photos and drawings included. If you want the real story not cheesy scare tactics, this is the tour for you!

steve&mel, liverpool
we were so amazed what we had learned from chris he relived the story of jack the ripper with such detail and expression he was fantasic

KELLY PHILLIPS , BASILDON ESSEX UK
I CANT WAIT IM BRINGING MY DOUGHTER ALONG ON WEDNESDAY WOOP WOOP

Carolina Girls, North Carolina (States)
We took the tour and were mesmerized by our amazing tour guide Dickie Dover. He was brillant, dashing and entertaining. Would definitely recommend tour and would return when in London again!!!If we had contact info, one or more of us may request a private tour. THANKS FOR A GREAT NIGHT!

Love Carolina Girls!!!!

Alan and Debbie , Wirral
We took the tour on the 15th March, had a great time with our tour guide Dickie, his narration was excellent and full of great facts not just about Jack but about the area as well, you really got the feeling of the streets and conditions back in the day of the murders. Well worth the money.

Steve and Ruth, Walsall, West Midlands
17th March 2010

We did the tour last night 16/03/2010 and we both had a lovely night. The tour was extremely interesting and gave lots of information. Our guide Steve was really helpful and added humour to keep things light hearted. It was good to do the tour of the sites in the right order as other tours don,t. Will definately be recommending this tour to others. Thanks for a fascinating night Steve. Ruth and Steve.

Ryan & Nicki, Northampton,England
We were fortunate enough to have gone on the tour last night and we both agreed that 'Dickie' was fantastic, he really made you confident with his nowledge in the subject and his humour made it also feel light hearted
We would recommend this over any other Ripper tour because as Dickie himself said the others dont go close enough to the murder sites or in the right order!

Donna & Angela Galway, Poole, Dorset
This was a great tour and as cold and tired as we were 'Dickie' kept our attention to the max, with his great stoying telling ability, and some light hearted humor and plenty of good factual information, pictures to take you back to 1888, it was a great tour and highly recommended.

Dimitris , Roehampton
Dimitris, Mimika, Bronnwen, Kate, Laura, Mike

The tour was really nice, Dickie, walked us through the small alleys and not only explained the murders but also told us really interesting facts about the history of the White Chapel.

Definitely worth the 7 pounds, if you do it though, better be wearing comfortable shoes, lots of layers and be prepared for a long walk!

Pat Varney, Guildford Surrey
8 of us went on this tour on 27th Feb and whilst the weather was damp and cold, we had a fantastic time. Our guide was very funny and made a serious business lighthearted. Walked down streets one wouldn't normally go and really got the feel of the old London. Brilliant and well worth every penny - not to be missed. One word of warning - try not to walk around London all day before the tour!!

phil,carol, dani, anne, toni, and cloe, east grinstead west sussex
27/02/2010 a big thanks to steve for great tour, he really set the scene and brought the tale of jack the ripper to life with the way he put story accross. we all had a fantastic night. again many thanks.

Bev and Martin, South Wales
We took our tour on February 23, it was a miserable damp night and we loved it. We would like to say Thank you to our guide Kevin, who is an excellent story-teller very informative he told the gory tale with humour. It was nice to be in a smaller group as we were able to hear everything that Kev was saying.

Well worth the price I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who has an interest in Jack the Ripper.

Natalie & Graham, London
We would like to say thank-you to Kev - We went on the walk last night and thoroughly enjoyed it.

We found it very interesting as this all took place very close to where we now live!!

The tour guide Kev did a fantastic job of making the tour interesting, informative, but also humorous, making it a very enjoyable night.

Marie and Nathalie, london and france
because my sister is studying jack the ripper at school, i decided to take her on the tour, which i'd never done before. what an amazing night! we were a small group, only about 15 people. it was great because we were able to chat with the guide as we walked. and what a guide we had !Chris was extremely passionate, really entertaining and very knowledgable . the story is fascinating, and he managed to bring it to life with great humour and details. we'd recommend it to anyone , it was an amazing night despite the cold!

Chris & Mary , Kent
Fantastic tour, Simon was so passionate and enthusiastic, a great couple of hours which was very informative and interesting. Would recommend to everyone.

Amy and Erika , Caterham
The tour was very informitive last night and we had so much fun. It was intresting going around the places that the actual murders had happened. The outcome at the end was very intresting.

Liz and Patrick, Leicestershire
A wonderful tour and Dickie was a fantastic guide. It was a cold, very wet evening, and this along with Dickie's wonderful storytelling made it all very atmospheric. Would like to do it again!

Stephanie, Brisbane, Australia
We had an amazing night and thoroughly enjoyed every moment of the tour in dark, cold Whitechapel. Chris was a FANTASTIC guide with a great sense of humour and an amazing knowledge of all things London. He really set the scene of 1880s London and is clearly extremely passionate about his job. I learnt a lot more than I expected and appreciated he was open to giving advice about different aspects of London. I will be recommending this tour to everyone I know in London. Thank you so much!

Terry & Anna, Belfast
Dickie was our guide and very entertaining he was. It made a cold night in London very enjoyable and his knowledge of The Ripper was excellent. A brisk walk around the back streets of London to keep you on your toes. Thanks Dickie for a great evening

Sonja and Nik, Dumfries, Scotland
We thouroughly enjoyed the tour and Dickie was an excellent guide. His storytelling kept us hooked the whole way round! It was cold (well not too cold for us Scots!) and dark which added to the evening. We even got to see copies of photographs from the time which were very interesting. Thanks for a great evening!

tina and tony, Orlando
this was a great tour we went with a guide called ken. it was a cold night but Ken never faltered do this you will not be dissapointed

john , old kent road

gordon and catherine, manchester
dick was are tour guide. we had a great time. we really got the feeling of history gone by. that these woman got killed by jack the ripper. and he was still lurking in the back alleyways of london. creepy but was really entertianing and educating. well done dick or was it jack.

Daryl Russ, Columbia, SC USA
After an overnight flight and all day touring, I was determined to see the Jack the Ripper tour on my first night in London, despite the frigid cold.
And the tour was well worth it. Chris was a great guy, funny, knowledgable and a great storyteller. I've read a lot of Jack the Ripper books but still picked up some new information and it was great to finally put the locations into some perspective.
Had a great cold night and can't wait to do it again some day.

Don and Sue Latimer, Whakatane, New Zealand
Thanks Chris for an awesome evening. It was entertaining as well as informative, and we will ber recommending the tour to all we talk to.

James , Los Angeles, California
Just wanted to stop by and say thanks so very much to Chris for a really great night. Jim and I had a great time talking with you. And Dave did a really great job as well. Thanks again mate.

Jim & Marie, Stoke-on-Trent, UK
Kev gave us such an interesting tour that we forgot how cold it was. We both had a great time and recommend the tour to anyone who is interested in the history of Jack the ripper.

Ricky and Lisa, Dublin, Ireland
just a quick comment to say that Steve gave a great tour and was very informative about jack the ripper. easily the best ripper tour in London! best of luck for the new year lads.

Betsy, Nancy, and Cyndie, Virginia, USA
My sisters and I went on the tour on Sunday night, Jan. 3. Our tour guide was Dickie - absolutley wonderful! He was great at leading the group, speaking loudly enough, and making the tour so very interesting! It was very cold that night, but it was well worth walking around where the murders took place for over two hours. It was a very interesting tour but I do think that Dickie made it extra special.

Julie, Alberta, Canada
Thank you Steve for the great tour! It was scary fun!

Mike Finch, London
Comments:
My son paid for me to go on this tour as a birthday treat and our guide was Dickie, who was terrific. His knowledge of London is formidable and he made everyone feel like the detectives that very night. We came away with a real sense of how life was for many folk just a hundred years ago and the appalling deprivation in the East End. How many guides bring along memorabilia like coins, photographs etc and we came away knowing much more about one of the greatest cities in the world [ours!] and all of my party felt it was superb value for just seven pounds.

Simonetta & Nicolas, France
Kev, you are a great guide. We enjoyed the tour so much, that we haven't even felt the cold weather (really cold indeed)!
Hope to take another tour with you next time with more friends. We learnt a lot about London.
Have a great 2010!

Caroline, France/ london
I loved our tour last night, it was brilliant.
Kev made it REAL with his sense of suspense, his wit and his props. We had a fab time and were so impressed by the amount of details, passion and enthusiasm Kev brought to us.
Thanks Kevin, we had a fabber time and feel a bit more knowledgeable about JRP (Liked that portrait at the end)
I thoroughly recommend it.

Paula & Neil Harrison, Southend, Essex
A fantastic tour, informative and interesting and didn't know where the time went. Simon, our tour guide, was superb, and we can't recommend his tour enough. If the other guides are only half as good as he was, it would still be a great tour. Particularly liked the trivia about the area Simon told us, he obviously has a great passion and enthusiasm for his work, which was infectious. Thanks for a great evening.

Sam Swanton, Chichester
Fantastic experience, well worth 2 hours in the snow and rain, which added to the atmosphere anyway. Simon the guide was exceptionally entertaining and informative, and we picked up all sorts of other interesting information from him - I now know where Diagon Alley is and how the Victorians stopped hansom cabs crushing pedestrians!! Two of your rival tours were on our heels, and we certainly seemed to be having the best time!! Thanks, would definitely do it again. Thanks to Simon - a great evening!

Tour guide Dickie Dover

The tour was absolutely excellent. It was informative, fun and cleverly devised. Our guide was equally superb; he was thoroughly well versed in his subject, possessed of wonderful public-speaking skills and the inclusion of the information cards regularly passed around the group was a lovely touch. The stop off at the pub was also warmly received! All in a great way to start an evening”. Matt W

caroline's group 5th December 2009, London
fantastic tour that completely engages you from the off. Dickie is a superb guide who through his wealth of knowledge and excellent delivery manages to re-create a real sense of what 19th century London would have been like whilst fully immersing you in the case of Jack the Ripper. Re-told in every lurid, gory detail, along with amusing asides, this tour manages to be both incredibly informative and brilliantly entertaining. I can’t recommend it highly enough!

Sue & Gerrie, Adelaide South Aust.
I'm sorry it has taken me so long to get here to give my comments ... life on the road is so busy!
We did the tour on 14th October 2009 and had a ball. Our guide was Kevin and I was the perfect stooge for him ... never failing to jump, twitch or gve a nervous scream as he told his wonderful tale ... peppered with jokes, props and lots of detailed knowledge about the events and the period. We both thoroughly enjoyed it and were delighted when we joined a tour of a nearby 'world famous World Heritage site' to discover Kevin in his daytime role was to be our guide. On both occasions he was very entertaining and informative. Thanks Kevin!

"An excellent tour, led by a born storyteller and a font of knowlege for all things regarding Victorian London. I recommend doing it in the dark and rain to add to the atmosphere"

John, Hanwell, London
Myself and two friends took the tour on 5th December and were very impressed by the atmospheric and scary narrative supplied by the guide. Thanks for a great evening old boss
From Hell!!!

Sharon Rowley, Leeds, England
We did the tour on Friday 4th Dec, and our guide was Dickie.
The tour was excellent and Dickie was really informative, as well as being quite humourous! The cold, dark damp weather on the night gave it an extra eerie feel.
Well worth the money - I can't imagne anyone wouldn't enjoy it, but it's a nice touch that you only have to pay at the end of the evening.

Ben Finch, Walthamstow, London
Fantastic evening with a brilliant guide, thanks to Dicky. Informative, interesting and at time quite graphic!
Almost as if i was there, would recommend to anyone with an interest in history and/or Jack the Ripper.

Hunter Everett, Dayton, Ohio
We took our tour on a miserably cold, wet night - and loved it. Our guide was the Marine, and he was top notch despite the bad jokes! We would recommend this tour to anyone, and if we return to London, we'll take it again.

We went on the tour on fri 27th nov 09, with guide Ken, who is an excellent story teller, he tells the gorry tale with humor and has good knowlege on the ripper story itself. we had a great time, well worth the £7, reccomend it to everyone who loves a good gorry tale.
Thanks for a great friday night in Londons Whitechapel!

Michael Weedy, Middlesbrough, Cleveland
We took our tour on 25th November with Dicky our guide. Very enjoyable and informative evening and I would have no hesitation in recommending this tour to anyone. Unsure about Dicky's opinion of who the ripper actually was however........ I won't spoil the surprise for anyone looking to take the tour!

Sue Bond, Essex, England
A Great Night had by Myself and friend Janet. Excellent tour, not only informative about Jack The Ripper but some interesting facts about surrounding area. A big THANKS to our tour guide Dicky for a job well done.

Anke de Vries, the Netherlands
Me and my boyfriend joined the tour on the 20th of November. The tour was scary, funny and fascinating at the same time. Really something I can recommend to anyone who is visiting London! Especially this tour since no booking is needed in advance, so you can pick whatever evening suits you best.
Kevin, in case you read this; thanks for the great evening!!!

Steven Dunne, Coventry
On Saturday 21st November my girlfriend and I were in London to celebrate her Birthday. She's always liked murder and mystery and whilst we had alot of plans for London we were both looking forward to this tour. It was cold and rain fell hard however the tour was fantastic. The Guide was very friendly and you could easliy tell that he had a love for what he was showing - the 2 hours soon passed.

Between talks I took in what other guides were saying as we passed and all i can say is that we made the right choice as the other guides sounded like they were reading from a script and just going through the motions.

My Girlfriend and I thought we knew alot about Jack The Ripper but by the end of this tour I promise you, you will know Jack..... Guys thanks for a Great experience that still has left me thinking today and has left me wanting to read more into the Ripper History.

An even bigger crime than that of the Ripper would be anyone who doesn't feel they should pay at the end of the tour because this was money well spent for us.

Jean-Paul Arends, Tilburg, The Netherlands
Went on the tour on sunday 22 november with tourguide Dicky and i can say it was an absolute blast. Intriguing and interesting. Highly recommended. I feel that we (the people i was with) picked the right tour. When you are in London definitely pick this tour. It was great! I'm gonna look up things about Jack the ripper now, Take care!

Michelle, London
Having always wanted to do the Jack the Ripper Tour I wasn't dissappointed when some friends and I got together for the tour on Tuesday 3rd November 2009. Our guide was Kev who was very informative but also very funny. We saw other tour groups on our way with so many people in, it was good to be in a smaller group and be able to hear everything Kev was saying. Not having to book was a bonus as the weather had been very hit and miss all day but luckily for us it stayed dry! I would definitely recommend this to my friends and would do the tour again.

Karen moore, London
Our guide was kevin on Friday 13th November. We enjoyed the tour kevin was a great guide who was full of information and really made the tour come to life. We would recomend this tour to our family and friends. from the three daudlers at the back

Isabelle, London
I have always wanted to do the Jack the Ripper Tour and finally myself and a group of friends got organised to do the tour on Tuesday 3rd November 2009, our guide was Kev. It was the most fun I have ever had walking around scary haunts in London. The guide was extremely knowledgable of the area and the murders and was very entertaining. You really got a feel for what London would have been like for people in 1888. I would definitely recommend this to my friends and I would want to do this tour again.

Matt Day, Bow (by way of Belmar, New Jersey, USA)
Fellas,
In the US, today is Veteran's Day, which honors all those who've served in the Armed Forces. So here's wishing you all a Happy Veteran's Day. Thanks for the tours - all of them!

Iles Family, Bristol
We were on the tour on the 2nd of November.
Ken was our guide, he was great!
Not only did he talk about Jack but also showed intrest about us, where from , what we had done so on so on!
I will tell everyone I know about the tour, it was a very good night out!
Thank you Ken

mollie, new york
kev you were great

Lauren & Paolo, Manchester
Our guide Dickie was BRILLIANT!! The tour was probably the best part of our visit to London!!
Dickie kept us captivated the entire time with his jokes and is amazing story-telling skills!! Dickie also took the time to speak to us whilst walking between each murder scene etc.
He really brought the events to life for us and recited the story as though he was there himself.
It was definitely worth the £7!
If your looking for a Jack the Ripper Tour this is the one to do!! We will definitely be recommending this tour to our friends and family!
Thanks for a great evening Dickie!

Anthony and Kirsty, East London
Hi we had a tour with mark tonight and he really made us feel we were actually witnessing the crimes as they were taking place, very descriptive and happy to answer all our questions.
Great tour.

Anne and Mark Miller, West Sussex
We have been wanting to do the tour for ages and we weren't disappointed, it was fantastic from start to finish. Our guide Chris was excellent and more than happy to answer any questions. We would happily do it again!

Erin and Prue!!, Sydney, Australia
Very imformative and Kev knew his stuff, but still not sure who Jack the Ripper was!! ;) Felt very welcome and the tour group was not too big so all of our questions were answered! It was fantastic and would recommend it to anyone!

Thanks again!

SJ Tolan, Canary Wharf, London
Had a great time on the tour, our guide Kev was really excellent. The tour and props were very good and Kev is clearly very knowledgable about the subject matter. I would highly recommend the tour if you want to know the true ripper story!

Eric & Leasa, Tampa, Florida
Excellent value for money, Our guide Dickie was superb, I have done tours with other companies and this was by far the best. His use of period photos along with his thorough commentary gave you a better sense of Whitechapel as it was during that time. Ask for him, you won't be disappointed!
Easily the best 7 quid I spent the entire week!

Cassie & Dave, Norfolk
Had a great time on the tour on Halloween. Kev was our guide, he was informative, lively and funny - well, he tried! ;0) And you could tell he enjoyed telling the story. Would definately reccomend it. Thank you :0)

Martin Skinner, Ottawa, Canada
Very imformative and entertaining. Ken has a fantastic presence and delivered a great performance. It was a brilliant blending of fact, experience, and entertainment. I would take this tour again...not once, but TWICE!

Tara, The Netherlands
I really loved the tour, have seen a lot en the man that told everything yesterday is a fantastic story teller!(and makes great jokes:P)

Ian, Essex
Kev was really good and his knowledge was second to none, excellent night spent in london

Max & Jen, Surrey
Great way to spend a spooky Halloween night. Dickie, our guide was a great story teller! Would definitely recommed!

Media Law Firm, London
Having organised a work Hallowe'en themed evening, I was apprehensive that the speaker wouldn't be up to our form of wit.. I needn't have worried, Kevin was brilliant as a tour guide and one of our Partners even reported that he walked home spooked! Well done Kevin - we would have no hesitation in recommending your Walk to anyone.

Hayley Jones, Aberdare, S Wales
I took my mother to London for her 50th Birthday an we took the tour on Friday 23rd Oct, Chris our guide was very good and very dramatic he really captured out imaginations. i would highly recommend this tour to anyone. thank you for a great experience.

Sian, Bristol
Took this tour on Friday 23rd October and thoroughly enjoyed it! Chris was an excellent guide and managed to captivate my imagination and transport us back 1888. It was easy to imagine the streets as they were over 120 years ago even though Eastenders was playing on the TV in the building opposite! Would thoroughly recommend this tour and will be taking it again with other family members next time we are in London.

Christine , London, UK
Dickey was a great tour leader. The tour was very informative about London (and Whitechapel specifically) in the 1800's in general. Although I thought the tour group was slightly big at first I could hear every word and never missed anything. The tour is a total of 2.5 hours (I think the longest of them all) and is jampacked with interesting facts - the first time I looked at my watch was 20 minutes before the end! Tour starts early 18h45 so you'll still get in bed at a decent hour. Thank you!!

Angela, Essex
Thanks Steve
It was a great evening - still disagree about your suspect though!!

Warren and Vicki, Sydney, Australia
We've been living in London for nearly 4 years and are about to head home. Despite our time here, we learnt so much about the history of London and Kevin was very captivating and made the tour fun. His delivery of telling the story Jack the Ripper was both entertaining and insightful. I highly recommend this tour.
Cheers Kevin!

Kate, London
Thanks Kevin for such a great tour. Really informative and fun, we had a blast....

Ashley Glover, Kingston, WA USA
My husband and I traveled all over Europe and took lots of different tours. However, the Jack the Ripper Tour was our favorite. Kev-had so much information not only about Jack the Ripper but about London history as well. Thanks Kev for a such a wonderfully creepy evening.

Maggie Young, Ipswich Hospital
We had a 'private' tour with Chris last night, and it was just brilliant! He told the story well, and kept us captivated. Thank you Chris for making the journey more than worthwhile!

Marion Anderle, Vienna, Austria
Was the best tour I´ve made in London, really amazing!!! Thank you, Ken!!!

Phil, Newcastle
A fantastic dark intense but gripping tour giving by a true expert guide, thanks Chris for a truly memorable experience.

Babs. lucy., Rochdale
Just brilliant Ken Thanks

Rachel & Rob, Northants
The walk on the October 10th with Mark was fantastic! Great evening out with loads of facts that we hadnt heard before and was great to be able to pass the photos etc around.Thanks for a brilliant tour!

Matt Day, Bow, London
I must say that my second tour was thoroughly as enjoyable as the first. (Sorry, Dickie, but Ken is very good at what he does as well ... ). The entertainment and education, not only about the murders, but the Victorian way of life during that time, is easily worth the tour price.
Thanks to both Ken and Mark for their professionalism and courtesy and special thanks to Ken for the unexpected bonus thrown in as well.

Jenny, Cheshire,England
My American friend Dan & I went on your tour in September. Our guide was Steve & he was excellent!~~very interesting & entertaining.The walk around Whitechapel was fascinating.We really enjoyed our"gruesome"evening!~~& would highly recommend your tours.

Virginia, London
Had a great tour with guide Mark, excellent stories, great pace, great sense of humour, it was really worth it! Thank you very much! I will definitely be taking this tour again soon!

Greg & Alison , Warrington, Cheshire
I'm not someone who is easily impressed so the Thursday 8th October tour with Kev the beefeater was a brilliat evening walk and tour of Whitechappel. Our interest was kept going with a mix of humour and story telling and the odd shock tactic (go on the tour to see what I mean!) you must go on this tour if you are in London, fantastic value and entertaiment

Vince & Colette Brotherton, Derby UK
Great tour with lots of information. Dickie was an excellent guide and really made 1888 come to life. Would recommend to anyone.

Mark, Norfolk
Best night out in London ever. Our tour guide Steve The Frog brought the story to life with his punchy wit and charm. What a gent, worth every penny.

Dave & Irene, Llanishen Cardiff
Many thanks to Kev for a truly fantastic Sat Oct 3rd tour ,I would recomend him to any one thinking of going he is very knowledgeable and did put a twist on it I wouldnt have thought of and I have read books on the subject

Peter and Jo Threlfall, Birkenhead, Wirral
We went on a Jack The Rpper Tour on Sat 3rd October, with Kevin, which was superbly put acoss to the group in such a professional and knowledgable way. He also injected a bit of humour into the tour, but always at the right times, and never disrespectful to the errible events of 1888. I consider myself to have a basic knowledge of those tragic deaths, but Kevin put a few spanners in my train of thought as to who I might have considered to be the murderer (I won't spoil it for anybody!). Absolutely fantastic, and would love to do it again.

Sarah, Glasgow
Had an awesome tour on the 25th with Chris, would highly recommend this particular tour to everyone interested!

Clare, Manchester
Had a fantastic time on the tour with Chris (on the 21st). Would highly recommend to anyone.

We did the tour on 20th August with Dickie..It was really wonderful!! It was good to listen this story from Dickie who explained it very well, only a little bit fast for us italians...but we recommend it to all, that want to do a travel in the past of London...Greetings from the fantastic five

iain tordoff, Leeds, yorkshire

Lindsay Phillips, Birmingham, UK
The tour was a last minute addition to our schedule but it was well worth it. The price was very reasonable and the tour was excellent. A special mention to our wonderful tour guide Dickie who made the experience unforgettable!!

Mark G, Bermondsey, South London
THE best and only Ripper tour that anyone should embark on!! Kevin- our guide is very amusing and informative (his jokes have also improved since the last time I did the tour too!!). Thoroughly recommend it- brilliant!!

Claude and Lise Mercier, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
We had a great time on the tour with Kevin. It was spooky (at least he tried to make it spooky), funny at times but always interesting. The tour was well worth it. Thanks again.

Clare, London
Fantastic tour by Dickie, great story teller. Thanks.

Saskia Konynenburg, London
Me and my friends had a really great time, we liked the way there were other historical facts included that weren't just about Jack the Ripper. Kevin was a great guide, and his jokes created a great atmosphere with good banter. Thanks Kevin!

Ekene Uzor, London
I had a great time with my colleagues. Our tour guide was great and had an excellent memory (I suppose it's something he does regularly but even then) remembering names, dates and laces with ease. He was a great story teller.

Katy, London
We had booked onto another tour but we had trouble finding them and they left without us. Thank goodness Chris kindly allowed us to join his tour and was a fantastic host - much better than the one we had likely booked onto in the first place! You totally saved our bank holiday Sunday Chris, thank you for being such a star.

Shirley, London
Dickie was excellent I think he enjoyed telling the story as much as we all enjoyed hearing it. Although as Londoners we grew up with the story of Jack, Dickie brought it to life and made it seem all the more real - brilliant

Lucy 29, Banbury UK
Dickie was great - Thanks for a very informative tour.
I was worried I would not be able to hear as the group was quite large but I could hear every would of Dickies strangely familier voice.
Highly recomended.

Courtney Crocker, Smithfield, NC
While on holiday in London last week, I had the privilege of taking the tour with Steve on a cold, rainy night. I was glad I had my Wellies on, and that Steve was such an absolutely brilliant guide to make the most of the experience despite the rain. Not only was the tour informative, but Steve brought the facts to life with his wit and charm. I will be spreading the word from this side of the pond that everyone should take this tour when visiting London. Thanks, Steve!

Jan, London, England
My friend and I have been meaning to do a "Ripper Tour" for ages and finally did on 08 September. We're so glad we picked this particular tour! Kevin, our guide, was really informative and very entertaining and knew lots about the area. The advert states that if you don't enjoy the tour, you don't have to pay but I can't imagine anyone being disappointed. Highly recommended!

James, 24, Tower Hill
As a new resident to the area I was interested by the signs i see reeguarly getting off the tube and along with my friend we decided to take the tour. Chris the tour guide was awesome, informatine , charasmatic and amusing.
All in all i would reccommend the tour to anyone, although the vivid descriptions of some of the murders did make me feel a little ill. However this added to the experience.

Jodie, Chelmsford
Was very interesting and educational, Steve our guide managed to lighten the gory atmosphere... excellent guide, excellent tour! Thank you!

Therese, Harlow, UK
I wanted to do something different for my birthday 28.08 -and choose the Jack the Ripper Tour. We were a group of 8 friends and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. Kevin the guide was fantastic - and we have already recommended the tour to several other friends.

Had been meaning to take this tour for years now, and it finally took friends in from out of town to get it done.
==> WHAT A FANTASTIC TIME! <==
==> Dickie Dover rules!!! <==
One of the most captivating tours I've ever experienced by far, and one that I will definitely repeat several times.
Value for money cannot be beat, and those were some of the most grizzly photos I'd ever seen.
Thanks, Dickie, for a splendid time!!!

Have been a great Jack the Ripper reader for many years and this excellent tour was the icing on the cake.Kevin our tour guide was an absolute expert on all Jack the Ripper facts we are going back again this year.If like me you are mad about Jack the Ripper theories this is the tour for you.Kevin takes you back to those times as you go from street to street a great experience.

sean naylor, gillingham kent
i took the tour just over two years ago and this time took my 15 year old nephew. last night 31.07.2009 friday.
kevin was the guide, and makes the tour come to life a really friendly, polite and well presented man and you only have to look at other tours whilst on route to realise what nugget we have in this tour . waiting for the pin to drop and burning the candle at both ends fantastic facts brouht us to the end of the day as well as tour , fantastic, fantastic , fantastic

Kirstin, Germany
I had a great evening in Whitechapel. Our guide was very funny and his very British black humour made the tour even better. I always wanted to see the quarter where Jack the Ripper was lurking around and I'm very glad that I joined the tour.

Roman, New Mexico, USA
The tour was amazing, and the tour guide made it even more interesting by really getting into details and by the way he told the stories. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone!

It's a must see, while your in London!

Anne and Mark Cryer-whitehead, Milton Keynes
Thank you Mark was a great tour. We was on our honeymoon and what better way was to come to London and go on the tour.

Brent Stevenson, Northern Ireland
Cannot recommend the tour enough! It was great; you feel the atmosphere where Jack carried out his gruesome acts and see the places that the poor girls frequented!

Ken, the tour guide, was knowledgeable and brought it all to life and the whole tour was exceptional value for money!

Well done!

Matthew, Manchester
Of all the things I did in London that weekend, this was the best, and the cheapest. Cheers Ken. I have read books on the ripper before but genuinely learned some new and very interesting points on the suspects.

James Duke, Mobile, AL, USA
We were looking for a different tour group when we happened upon Dickie getting ready to start a tour. I am so glad we found him. The tour was fantastic. Dickie was engaging and funny. Time flew by on the tour, and Dickie's pub recommendations were spot on.

michelle bailey & sandra machin, south yorkshire
We took the tour on fri 26th june 09. Kev was our brilliant guide, very knowledgable on the subject and obviously enjoys conducting the tour. His jokes were absolutely hilarious! (maybe a slight over exaggeration). Keep up the good work & have been telling friends to look out for you!

Cary House, Indiana, USA
Just back from a vacation to London and Paris. I took the tour on June 24th with some students from the USA. Kev was our guide and he was fantastic. I have been on this tour before and Kev made it as interesting as if I had never heard the Ripper story. What I love about these guys is that they will give you so much more of the history of London, not just Ripper info. Thank you so much Kev!

Liz Farrell & Anne-Marie Holmes, West Midlands
We went on the Tour on Friday 26th June, Kev was our guide and was excellent. He gave us the facts, took us to the murder sites or as near as he could, suggested possible suspects and gave us clues to let us make our own conclusions, of who the Ripper actually was. It was a very informative tour and we would recommend it to anyone wanting to find out about the Ripper killings.

Liz, Louise, Wendy and Dave, London
Fab night. Thank You so much for taking us to Diagon Alley. 3 tours in 1 (obviously Jack the Ripper, a little bit of Da Vinci and Harry Potter all rolled into 1!!) Shame about the rat Kev!!

Susan and Chris, Surrey, UK
We did the tour on Friday 26th June 2009. Our tour guide was Kev. Kev you were a brilliant tour guide, you might need a bit of practise on your jokes (only kidding!) but we really enjoyed the tour with you. We will be recommending you to our friends, and we will be coming up again in the near future for another tour! See i told you i'd put a comment on the guest book and recommend you so that you wouldn't have to pay for the drinks at the end of year party!! If you need a few more guest book comments to beat the others, let us know!!!!
P.S You still can't scare me with those squeaking plastic rats!!

Alastair & Donna, Ripon North Yorkshire
Went on a tour with Steve as our guide last Sunday night.Had a great time and saw bits of London i would never had known about if i had not done the tour.Great jokes,chilling tales and the best £7.00 you will spend.Dont be shy you will enjoy.

Jenny & Amy , Orlando, USA
May 18, 2007 Great walking tour of the streets of Whitechapel. Our tour guide Chris, was very knowlegable of Jack The Ripper and certainly kept you hanging onto his every word with such wonderful whit! This tour was the highlite of our short visit to London. How does he store all that information? Would have loved to visit a pub afterwards with the whole group! Well worth the money!

Margaret & Graham, Kent
Tour with Kevin on Sunday was excellent. His humour, knowledge of the subject and great presentation skills, certainly made up for the absence of original environment of the time.

Derek & Jane, Surrey
Brilliant tour with Kevin - Very interesting and funny at the same time. Well done and highly recommended.

N, London
Did the tour on Saturday 16th. Kev was our guide and he was brilliant! A really enthusiastic tour guide with a genuine interest in all things Ripper related which only helped make the tour more captivating. Can't recommend the tour highly enough!

Jane, London
Great tour - Kevin was a brilliant and hilariously entertaining guide. Highly recommended.

PS sorry about the swearing, Kev!

John Field, Ashtead United Kingdom
Great tour on Saturday and Kevin was a tremendous guide. Didn't see any rats but he retold the story well and it was interesting to see a part of London I don't know. A worthwhile trip and one we would encourage everyone to make.

Alan and Yvonne, Ockendon, Essex
What a great time we had, Lots of surprises with all the information Dickie gave us, a very friendly person and made our day. unlike so many other places the value for money was fantastic.

Great tour. Steve was very informative and entertaining. Will definitely recommend to my friends!

Alan Maund, Gregory Maund, Ashley Wallace, Prince George B.C. Canada
Chris told us a great story and kept us entertained for the whole two hours. We really enjoyed his humour. He said to use the name Kevin (other guide) if we did not enjoy ourselves......

Alan Fisher, Brighton
An excellent tour. I have done a few other tours but this was the best Ken thanks for a great evening.

Julia, Worthing
This was a great walking tour, which I would highly recommend to everyone! Our tour guide Kev was very knowledgeable and provided a very factual (and chilling) account of the Ripper events. He also had a great sense of humour and was regularly telling us witty jokes - which made the tour not only very interesting, but fun as well. Watch out for the rats!!!!

Jackie, Reigate, UK.
My friends and I joined the tour not knowing quite what to expect. It turned out to be a great couple of hours full of fascinating fact and story, not just about Jack the Ripper, but about London in the Victorian age. Incredible value for money at £7! Many thanks to Kev and Mark for a great evening.

Jo, Sutton
Would highly recommend this tour - great value for money, interesting and informative. Fascinating part of London - definitely not on the usual tourist trails. Kev kept us all glued to the story of the Ripper; not sure I bought the theory, but had fun arguing about it!

susan, gail and gang, England
We met up for a tour, i do not want to sound boring, but this was great. not at all what we expected. ken who was our guide was exceptional in his presentation and knowledge of the area as well as keeping us in suspense with Jack the Ripper. all in all an excellent night of entertainment and so cheap.

Richard, Cambridge, UK
We had a great tour of the Jack The Ripper sites last night with our tour guide Simon. I would very much recommend this tour to anyone. Thanks again Simon!

Gill, Epsom
Walking in the footsteps of Jack the Ripper and his victims was a disturbing but fascinating insight in to the life and squalid conditions of the poor and destitute in Victorian London. This tour must be the best value for money in London!! Brilliant story telling by Kev and Mark - historians and real life Beefeaters - with plenty of audience interaction - especially in the pub afterwards! Thanks for a great night and look forward to follow up visit to the Tower!!

Hannah, Cambridge England
Excellent tour! Dickie was brilliant, he was very informative and entertaining at the same time. Would definatley recommend to anyone interested in the Ripper! Thanks Dickie!

dave barker, plaistow
what an excellent evening. Dickie was very knowledgable and dramatic in his tour. freely answered questions and was a fantastic guide. if your thinking of doing the tour go for it.
will be going again in the winter

Scott Greenwood, Toronto, Canada
I took this tour in December of 2000 and thoroughly enjoyed it. I have recommended it to friends and family traveling to London since and plan to do it again next month when I return to London.

Catherine, South London
We had a really good evening on the 10th April.
Chris was a great guide with lots of information. Was certainly a different way to spend my birthday. I would highly recommend this tour.

Karen , Philadelphia
My husband and I did the Jack the Ripper tour with Steven when in London late March and absolutely loved it. He is a fabulous story teller and had us captivated for the full two hours. Knowledgeable about his subject and humorous--who could ask for more. Thank you Steve!

Michael , Lincoln,Leeds
An excellent experience with the fantastic Dickie. Clever word play and impeccable timing combined with information and discription makes the tour something you must do.

Paul Hussey, Haywards Heath
Went on the tour on Good Friday with the excellent Chris as our guide. Thoroughly enjoyable evening and would recommend this tour to anyone.

Roger, London
Had a wonderful evening. Chris was an excellent guide and made the tour very enjoyable for everybody.

It was also very informative and the various visual aids and darkness added to it.

Paul H, Essex
Had a great evening - fun, endlessly informative and unexpectedly witty. Dickie was a great guide, very animated and obviously passionate about his subject. Can't remember a guided tour I enjoyed more - and I've been on a few!

Excellent value, unforgettable - go, you won't regret it for a minute. Think you're not interested in the Ripper? Let Dickie change your mind!

sandra, nottingham
Asolutely brilliant, really enjoyed the tour. Would recommend this when on a visit to london...excellant

Sioban Clark, London
On behalf of the staff and friends from the Old Royal Naval College in Greenwich many thanks for a fun and fact filled tour of the streets of Whitechapel. The whole evening was bought to life very vividly and with humour.

The pictures were gruesome and our intrepid guide Kevin kept the rats at bay.

Highly recommended for visitors and Londoners alike.

Bryan Sifford, Charlotte, NC
A friend in London told me this is the best Jack The Ripper Tour and no question about it!!!

Nice that they keep it to small groups where they split a large number of people who showed up into groups of ~15-20 each while we saw a guide from another Jack tour with ~60 people in his tour.

With the small groups there is a lot of interaction; I cannot even imagine the tour with ~60 people in our group.

I thoroughly enjoyed the tour!!!

Lisa, Herts
I went on the tour for my 21st on Sat (28th) and i had the best time!

Ken was amazing and certainly knew his stuff.

We came home and explained about the rats to my brother who is 8 and he was in hysterics for ages and has even gone into school to tell his friends what to do if you come across a rat!

This is one of the best things i have ever done and i sure won't be forgetting my 21st for a very long time thanks to Ken...AMAZING GUY!!

Thank you so much!

sharon , North wales
Thankyou Ken a great night out. great way to see londons history.:-)

Great tour, very entertaining and brought the tle to life. Well worth the money and an entertaining way to spend an evening.


Thanks to Dickie for a great evening.

Rich Downes, Chester
The tour was interesting, informative, gripping, entertaining and gave a real sense of the chilling murders that took place!
However this would not have been quite the tour it was without Dickie the tour guide! He was fantastic!

Pete Mortimer and Joanna Iacurti, North Wales, UK
Tour Date: Sunday 15th March 2009.

There's not alot I can say other than... -

"GO ON THE TOUR AND SEE FOR YOURSELVES!!"

It was a fantastic night, which took us around all areas of Whitechapel! The group sizes are great, not too big, and our tour guide 'Dickie' was superb. His knowledge, humour and facts, truely made the tour fantastic.

I wouldn't hesitate to go for a second time, Mitre Square was very spooky and some of the smaller streets we managed to visit (which the other tours could not due to size) made it that extra special.

A big thanks to Dickie for a great tour!! I would reccommend this tour to most ages! We are both in our early 20's and it was one of our highlights of our 4 days in London.

Thanks again Dickie!!

Sarah & Iain, Hinckley, Leicestershire
Took tour on Sunday 15th March, Dickie was our guide.
We had a fantastic time on the tour, which was fun and informative.
Although the Whitechapel area has thankfully improved over the years, visiting the sites of the murders with a knowledgable and entertaining tour guide, certainly helped to bring the information to life.
Dickie we also enjoyed sharing a pint with you in the pub afterwards, where you continued to add to our knowledge of the history of the area and you day job!
I would highly recommend this tour.

Mandy Gill, West Midlands England
We went on the tour on the 14th March and had a fantastic 2 Hours. Kevin was our guide and had the superb balance of humour and fact. I would definately recommend this to anyone.

richard and michelle, manchester
Our tour guide was Chris and he made the tour for us....he was very informative and very funny. The tour lasted 2 hours but went really quick....would recommend to anyone interested in the ripper story...extremely good value for money. Thank you.

Jessica & Jamie, Los angeles, CA
We stumbled upon Dickey and his group in an attempt to take a later tour that night...luckily we were early and found this tour. It was great. Over two hours but interesting for every minute. The tour guides are wonderful story tellers and we had a great time. Don't waste your time with other tours, this is the best! Thank you for a great last night in London. Very spooky and interesting. Complete with reference pictures. Get Dickey or Mark!

Matt and Laura, Ealing, London

A great way to discover the Area and its History as well as following the Ripper Trail.

Also his advice after on how to find our way back and places to eat in the area of tower hill, Thanks for a wonderful night on 28/02/2009

Norman and Heather, Wendover, Bucks, Uk
Dickie provided us with a very enjoyable, knowledgable and entertaining tour of parts of London I never knew existed. Thanks for a great evening. 27/2/09

Paul & Denise Whiteley, Blackpool, LAncashire
Dickie was our great guide - very knowledgeable - spent a very informative evening 23/2 with tales of the ripper and his victims. Saw parts of this great city we would not have ventured to alone.

John Davis, LONDON
Had a great 2 hours tour round London with Kevin as our tour guide on the 20th Febuary. I must admit most of his jokes are good but needs some new material. Must go on tour for anybody visiting London.

Roger, London
Had a great time on the Harry Potter tour!!!! Would recommend it to everyone. Kev was very funny and a great guide.

Elliot and Sydney, Upstate New York, USA
Mark was an excellent guide displaying a firm grasp of the story and the history of the area. He showed a keen ability to inject comic relief into the grisly story at the right times as well, which was probably one reason that my 13 year old daughter loved the tour from beginning to end.

Paula and Tony, Liverpool
Excellent tour on a very cold Friday the thirteenth. Kevin really knew his stuff and kept us entertained for the full duration. Would recommend the tour to anyone. Thanks again.

Paul & Jackie, Hertfordshire
What a great night! Simon was our very enthusiastic guide with a mind full of information, not only about Jack The Ripper but of the London area in general. A good couple of hours brisk walking around the streets you would probably not see otherwise. Knowing these guys are also Yeoman of the Guard, tells you the information given is as correct as can be. Well worth a visit! 5 star.

The Wyganowski', Kemp and Cowell families, Essex
We booked this tour as our son's are studying Jack the Ripper as part of their GCSE History this year. We all thoroughly enjoyed the evening and Dickie our guide was excellent and really brought to life what Victorian East End London was like. He was very knowledgeable and witty and the boys learnt a lot more than they had in class! The group was not too big and it was chilling to stand on the spots where the Ripper had murdered his victims! A wonderful two hour tour and very good value for money. The evening was rounded off by a visit to a curry house in Brick Lane - a must for all visitors to the East End.

Sarah, London
I booked a private tour with Steve for my boyfriends birthday. It was awesome, Steve was funny and knew his stuff. It was a hugely entertaining couple of hours and I'd fully reccommend these guys. :-)

Nick, London
My tour of 13 had a great time on this tour, hosted by the great Kevin. I missed half of it unfortunately due to work commitments (bllah) but Kevin kept me updated all night. Im sure he just loved saying my full name cos he said it loads of times.
very informative and laid back host was perfect for the snowy conditions and he always made sure we were enjoying ourselves every step of the way.
Highly recommended

Neil & Debbie, Kent UK
Kev was our guide and he certainly knew his stuff. The two hours just flew by and we had a great time and brought it all to life.
Much appreciated and well done!

Steph, Cambridgeshire, England
My boyfriend and I went on the tour for his birthday. Didnt really know what to expect when booked it. Steve was our tour guide who was very very good, funny and certainly knew what he was talking about. We see a few other tours when we done the walk in different locations and i felt we made the right choice by going with this tour as the other guides seemed to be too young. Found the tour very interesting and would definatly recomend to anybody. Was a cold night but you soon didnt feel the cold with the story etc.

Harry-O, Watford U.K.
My blood-thirsty family booked this tour as a birthday treat on January 31st, Steve was our guide who brought the story to life on a freezing night with his warm personality and excellent telling of the the tale,would thoroughly recommend the evening, and bringing some red mulled red wine in a flask on a cold night ..or would that resemble some other liquid too much?!

Sue and Georgie (:, Gloucestershire
Dickie was our guide on Sunday 1st Feb, and he was fabulous! He brought the infamous life of Jack the Ripper to life and the evening was made even more atmospheric by the snow! HIGHLY reccomended!!!

Sian Powell, Northamptonshire
Chris was our guide and I could not fault him even if I tried. Not only did he have info about the ripper but also had answers to any questions asked. Have not stopped raving about it since I got back and have told all my family and friends to do it. Excellent thanks alot!!!! ; )

Shakailla and Ben =D, West London, UK
Dickie was our tour guide on this chilly and snowy evening!! He was very informative without sounding boring or going on and on. We found him very approachable and a funny guy!
The tour itself was very entertaining, but very spooky!!
Especially in Mitre Sqaure where I have read that the ghost of Catherine Eddowes has been spotted (!) Anyway, to top it all off, it was an enjoyable experience and well worth roaming the East End in the freezing cold snow!! Ben and Shakey xxx

Adel, south shields, UK
My guide Dickie was a wonderfully eccentric man who made the tour worth every single penny.
An excitingly eerie walk, the tour was absolutely fascinating and put together very well.
I can't stop telling my friends about it and would definitely do it again!!

Amanda, Kristin, and Rachel , South Dakota, USA
Kevin was our guide (This would finally be the blonde studying at Oxford and her two American friends who ran into you again the next day at the Tower....the day after you got an autograph from hmmm...Tori Spelling I am thinking?) Any how we lost your card til just now (I know....bloody Americans costing you your end of the year drinks). But we would highly recommend Kevin and his tour to everyone. It made for a great evening of entertainment and we apologize for commenting so late. We hope you still won!!!! Maybe your co-workers will be gentlemen and let you count this towards next year :0 )

Leah & Piper Allen, Panama City, FL, USA
Chris, the Tour Guide, was absolutely amazing on the tour we took around Jan 16th. I'll never forget him and don't know how he remembered that much information. He was a walking computer! Great Personality, Wonderfully fun and exciting!
Leah & Piper--the two American blondes

David Bennett , UK
Steve was our tour guide - (27 January 2009). He was fantastic! Love Mum!

Liam & Nadine, Weston-Super-Mare

Martyn & Barbara Pomfret, Lancashire
Had a great tour with Mark on Sat 24/1, very interesting and well organised. Would recommend it to anyone.

Bonnie, Sheila and Tara, California/New York, USA
We really enjoyed this tour. Steve was the best tour guide!! He was funny, knowledgable and made the tour so much fun. We learned so much about the history of Jack the Ripper, the city of London and what life was like then. Thanks so much Steve. We will recommend this tour to everyone!!!!

Tammy Brown, Findern, Derby
It was my 40th birthday and this was my treat, I dragged along 6 friends, some who knew nearly nothing about Jack The Ripper.(They are all now fasinated) Dickie, our guide was fantastic, particulaly when describing some of the more gruesome facts! I would recommend this tour company to anybody if they want a great nights entertainment. Thanks also go to Kenny for making my weekend so special.

Paul,Keiley,Jeannine and Darren, Bolton and Sudbury,Canada.
Went on tour a bit sceptical about how good it was going to be,No Problem,really enjoyed it and Kev was very confident and informative all the way through the tour,Thanks

jane and rob , cornwall
we have just returned from london for the weekend and went on the tour with Kevin as our guide. We throroughly recommend anyone visiting london to enjoy a 2 hour tour of the east end. Kev was informative, fun and bought history to life!!

Viv & Steve Chaffe, Chelmsford Essex UK
What a great tour ! Kev proved to be an excellant guide, he kept us entertained from start to finish. Steve found it particually interesting as for 35 years he worked around the places that the bodies were found (crispin st, fenchurch st and whitechapel)yet he had no knowledge of this, as there arn't any plaques recording this ! why is that ?perhaps a coverup ?
So who was Jack the Ripper ? a bit like why did Princess Di die ? I guess we're never truly know. Great fun xxx

Jean & Kev Wilky, Southampton
Great Tour, Steve very informative, but was so cold would love to go again in warmer weather!!!!!!

Kevin Eisner, New York, USA
The tour was brilliant. My friend and I had a really good time and was very impressed that this was the only Jack the Ripper tour that actually goes into Whitechapel. Dickie was our guide and he was very informative, funny and gave you different views of who the killer might actually have been. A must for any fan of this part of London's history.

richard chow + chris evans, london + new zealand
excellent tour.kevin was very funny and entertaining.loved the tour and did the walk again in the day time the next day

Hazel, Staffordshire, England
Simon was our fantastically informative tour guide. It was a great couple of hours learning not only about the world's most famous anonymous murderer, but also a little more about London's general history. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone. Thanks Simon and Merry Xmas!

Clive and Louise Thompson, Milton Keynes UK
Thoughly enjoyed the tour, we learnt lots. Kevin a great tour guide, thanks.

emily, trawden, lancashire

Jan and Carl , Aussie/England
Went on this tour with ken last week, trust me it was well worth it. do not worry about the waether. ken was proffessional throughout the tour. best value ever,
cheers mate

Janice, USA
My friends and I absolutely loved the Jack the Ripper tour. Dickie was everything we could have asked for in a guide - very knowledgeable, friendly, and a great storyteller! He knew just how to keep us in suspense for 2 1/2 hours. I will definitely recommend this attraction to all of my friends who visit London. Keep up the great work!

Gary and Keily, Hertfordshire
Right from the start our guide Dickie was friendly and enthusiastic and even made a path through a rival tour party to get us the best spot in Mitre square. Dickie's knowledge and wit made the tour thoroughly enjoyable and informative, Dickie was a real storyteller and he almost made you feel like it was 1888. Highly recommended and great value for money, keep up the good work guys.

CHLOE, Swansea
Me and my mother went on the tour on the 1st of December and we both thoroughly enjoyed it! Kevin was our guide and he was very informative and eager to answer any questions, he spared no details and threw in a few jokes along the way. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone-it was the highlight of my trip to London!! Thanks Kev!!!

KATE, CARDIFF
I learned so much from this tour. It was fantastic as was our guide Mark - he kept the whole group mesmerised with what I can only describe in the words of Frank Carson "Tis the way you tell 'em". His voice carried well and even when we were between "scenes" he told us lots of interesting facts and showed us where the Diagon Alley footage was shot. Cannot sing his praises enough! FAB FAB FAB FAB!

serena, london
great night,brilliant tour,our guide was great full of knowledge,with a lot of laughs and scares thrown in.highly recommended,wanted to do this tour for a long time wasnt dissappointed would dop it again thanks for a great night

heather, TEXAS
Went on the tour on 20 Nov 2008 and it was great. I am sorry I do not remember the guides name mostly because of the pub afterwards, however, the tour was UNFORGETTABLE. Thank you for the knowledge and entertainment.

liz Cheffins, Southend
I took along a party of 12 from Waitrose in Southend. We all really enjoyed the tour. Kevin was our guide and he was great. We were all transported back in time to the 1888 and as the evening was dark and chilly with a stiff breeze it all helped to set the scene.
Well done that man!

Steve, Met Police Murder Squad
Chris was our guide and we had a fabulous walk and talk. A great deal of knowledge was displayed, not only about the Ripper but Victorian London as well. I am a Londoner of 45 years standing and did not know half of what we were told. A nice bit of banter with the punters as well. Chris was a great host to us detectives. Most highly recommended, thanyou.

Steven, Essex, England
What a night. Our guide was Simon and he was fantastic. I have wanted to take the tour for many years, and it was well worth the wait. The attention to detail, the constant barrage of facts and information, and the delivery of the story was just amazing. And we also learnt some general history of London as well as the origins of some phrases we still use today. Cheers Simon, for a great night out. I'll definitely be coming back for more.

Julia, London
Brought a group of performing arts students on a private tour. This was my 5th tour with Ripping Yarns and all the tour guides have been fantastic, (unlike some of their ill-informed and unprofessional rivals!) but last night Kevin engaged my students and made it more interactive for them as they will be performing the tale next month - thank you!

Denise Petch, Johannesburg SA
Foiund the tour very informative and entertaining. Once again, history came alive, and I enjoyed every moment

Rita Burrows, Bermuda
I can't believe I haven't done this years ago! Most probably becaue Ihate walking but Dickie managed to make the 2hours walk feel more like 30 mins.The Tour was excellent. Group size was good, not too big and Dickie is a fantastic story teller! He really draws you into the history of the area and continues to make references to the characters, making it all easier to remember. Without spoiling it too much, Dickie has a number of tricks up his sleeve to keep you enagaged along the way and to make the experience real :-) Great for couples (it has that romantic feel) and friends alike. Would definitely recommend!!!

Holly W, Pickering Ontario Canada (Greater Toronto Area)
Our Guide was Dickie. He was entertaining, informative, and the group was a good size. We could hear everything, and Dickie was great. He made everyone feel welcomed to London.
I will bring my husband here on a future trip and will do this tour again. I will ask for Dickie.

The Chadwick's, London
Took the whole family Mum,Dad,Wife,Son,Daughter and myself, out onto the dark,damp windswept streets of Whitechapel on the 9th.

Steve our guide was great.
He made it very interesting and entertaining not only for the adults but also my two teenage kids(the reluctant son who we had to drag off his games consloe)and my daughter who was allways at the front.

It is a must do. Still talking and thinking about it.

Worth every penny.

Kim , Warwick, England
Had a great time last night on the tour with Kevin, 2 hours flew by, not too many people on the tour so we could all hear and enjoy. Thank you.

Denise, Jackie and Natalie, Roehampton
Had a great time on the tour last Friday with our fantastic guide Dickie. Lots of interesting facts and information and just the right mix of history and humour.

Highly recommended - in fact we may have to do it again some time!!

One of those under-employed City of London Police , London
We went on last night's walk with Kev (and his side-kick, The Rat). Having previously worked in Brushfield Street near the scene of a Ripper murder, I have wanted to do one of the Jack the Ripper walks for a long while. Kev did not disappoint! He is a natural story-teller and knows his subject well, while throwing in lots of additional fascinating facts. The two hours flew by. A thoroughly enjoyable tour. Thanks Kev (and The Rat)!

Jack, From Hell
A great Halloween night spent with Dickie walking round the rippers killing ground.
It's hard to picutre the site as they were but out guide did an awesome job and was very very good indeed.

Got to Mitre square and bumped into a group of 75!!!!!!!!
Our group was about 40 but this was Halloween night however.

A great tour and for £7 it's a top bargin entertainment

thanks

jo, stevenage
I took my daughter on this tour tonight for her sixtenth birthday with some family and friends, thankou for a lovely evening most enjoyable and made an intresting night excellent guide very knowledgeable thankyou.

Willis, Winchester, VA
My friends and I had a wonderful time on our tour. It was definitely one of our highlights of our recent trip to London. Mark was very entertaining and displayed a great depth of knowledge on the subject of Jack the ripper. Absolutely loved the alternate theory! Bravo and Cheers!

russ, ramsgate kent
Had a great time with our guide steve, his knowledge of the murders and the history of the area was excellent. Nicely organized and not too many people on the tour made the whole experiance enjoyable. Well worth £7 would recommend this tour.

Claire and Ian Davies, Halesowen, west midlands
Many thanks to Dickie!!!
Quite simply a fantastic evening. Wasn't too sure what to expect as the tour seemed a lot cheaper than all the others advertised!! More fool for all the people out there paying £22 pounds for a tour lasting 1 hour 20 mins, when we had a good quality 2 hours and 15 mins for a bargain £7 (and only then if you wanted to pay!!!).

Dickie made the evening for us and what an expert in the field of telling tales of Jack the Ripper. We were truly taken back in time to 1888. We shall definately return again.
Many thanks

Kay , Peterborough
On the evening of the 11th Oct.after a hectic day sightseeing,we joined Dickie for the highlight of our day.It was by far the most interesting&best value entertainment we had, had over our weekend.Highly recommended to all,will certainly tell others.So thanks Dickie your knowledge of Jack the ripper&fabulous walk around the sites&streets of Whitechapel will be remembered,& will return one day.

Richard, Peterborough
We took the Tour a few weeks back, Our guide was Dickie.

We had done quite a few tourist attractions around london in the last few years but for interest and value this tour takes a lot of beating.

Dickie was very approachable and had a great sense of humour. There were only around 20 people on our tour and as we went round there were other tours with 60+ on them. In my opinion 20 was the right amount.

If you go on the tour you will definitely enjoy it and since they ask for payment at the end please pay as these guys are well worth the money.

Only thing is wear a good pair of shoes you will need them !!

David, Reno, NV, USA
We visited London on our honeymoon, and went on the tour on October 4th. Despite the miserable weather, the tour was fantastic, and extremely enjoyable. I can't remember our tour guide's name, but he was fabulous. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting London! Thanks for a wonderful night and helping to make our London trip memorable!

Allison, Hartlepool, UK
Our Ripper tour on 20th October with Mark (fab guy - generous with his sweeties) was absolutely fantastic! The weather was awful (rained the entire time) but couldn't detract from the quality of the knowledge, the humour and the whole experience. I always dread visiting London (not being used to the hussle and bussle of the big city) but I now find myself wanting to come back and take my kids on the tour (and tour the tower). Many thanks Mark.

Christine Lee, Liverpool
Our guide Steve took us on our tour and he made it an animated, exciting and memorbale evening. I would highly recommed booking the tour with these guys. Beefeater by day and tour guides by night makes it feel all the more authentic. A bargain at £7 and you don't have to pay until the end incase you do not find the eveninig enjoyable...not one person on the tour i was on refused to pay the money, i think that says it all!

Claire, Rayleigh, Essex, England
My family and I had an excellent time on the tour last night. I've been 'dying' to go on it for ages and am absolutely thrilled that I finally have and it certainly did not disappoint! Dickie was a great guide and had amazing enthusiasm considering the amount of times he must have done the tour! It was also very helpful in discovering short cuts that you never would've guessed were there otherwise! A truely fasinating evening dedicated to the gruesome crimes of Jack the Ripper as well as an insight into our historical culture of those times.

Joan Abdullah, London
Friday 17th October.
Lyndy, Eve and myself went on the tour with Tricky Dickie. It was great, he certainly made it very interesting and also amusing. Thank you. We will certainly be recommending the tour.

Jon and Kellie, Tunbridge Wells, England
We had Dickie for our tour. He was very well spoken, informative and humerous. We learnt alot and were shocked by the graphic details. We were thankful that numbers were limited and that all five murders were depicted in such detail. Thank you for a great tour. We will happily recommend it.

Duncan and Emma, Rayleigh
We've done this tour twice now and had great fun. Had Dickie on both occasions and he's always willing to answer all your questions. I would definatley recommend this tour to anyone.

Andrea & Oli, London
The tour was a fun way to spend a Monday night. Our guide, Chris, was both informative and fun! He was very energetic & willing to answer all the questions we had. His jokes were funny too! :) The tour was a great way to see some of London and learn more about the history. Thanks for a fun night!

Mike & Lauren, Charleston, SC USA
Kev did a wonderful job. He certainly knows his history and the area. Kev certainly kept us on the edge of our seats with his lore and especially his humor. We had a blast.

Thanks Kev and we hope the dollar helps out!

Gwen, Chicago, USA
Took the tour this past week, Kevin was fabulous!! Combinatin of history, stories, jokes & fun made for an entertaining evening. Will recommend to others & would take the tour again myself. Thanks!

Jane, London
This was a brilliant tour - Dickie was a wonderful guide and a great storyteller. I now really appreciate the history of places I had previously walked past without noticing. We walked past a couple of other tours towards the end and overhearing their guide made me confident ours was the best.

I would definitely recommend!

Tony, London
Kev was our tour guide, lets just say this guy knew ALOT about the murders, threw in a few props, and some jokes to make the tour very educational yet very very enjoyable.

The group wasn't too big either, so you didn't miss a thing and it felt alot more intimate, even though kev was saying if the group gets bigger they have 2 guides so no one misses a thing. something other tours don't do.

Top notch stuff from Kev.

Colin and Rachel, Northern Ireland
Took the tour on Sunday 5th October. Fantatsic tour and will recommend to anyone I know who is going to London. Our guide, Chris, was fantastic was open to discuss anything about Jack the Ripper, the Tower or the surrounding East End area. The 2 hours were very well spent and value for money.

Adrienne and Dave, Kent, England
Ken was our tour guide and made the whole experience very memorable (although a stroll down the road it wasn't!). He brought to life the real east end story of the ripper and relayed the tale with enthusiasm, historical fact and humour. At every location Ken provided photographic evidence and graphic detail of the murders that had taken place. It was brilliant! (and, by the way, he is a true Beefeater to be found at the Tower during the day and, a true gent. Definately recommended.

the gang, essex
it was ruddy briliant thanks

Kate, Launceston, Australia
Best tour in London! Our tour guide Kev was brilliant! You could really tell he was passionate about the story and not just repeating a script.
At one stage we walked past one of the other tours from a different company... over hearing the tour guide I was left wondering if he had just learnt about Jack the Ripper that day in school (his language and tone was very textbook and rehearsed), if I hadn't been pleased with the tour before (I had anyway) I was certainly pleased I chose this tour now.
Am recommending to all my friends and family. Well worth the money, and if I am ever in London again will probably do the tour again.
Thank you so much for offering this tour.

philip cruse, DAGENHAM ESSEX
Our Tour guide was i believe Richard with the little beard.
He gave a Captivating guide through whitechapel and you
couldnt get bored with his delivery of the facts.

would definately do it again and probably will for halloween.
Cheers

the gang, essex
came today with my school and it was great ,thanks very much we know more now than we did, we really enjoyed it.;

DIANE & JANINE, WOODFORDGREEN
Thanks steve your story telling was so captivating, we felt that we had been transported back to those dismal times when the ripper prowled the cobbled streets, hunting out his next victim!

Georgie, Southampton
This was the second time I had joined the Ripping Yarns tour & it was just as good as the first time. I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone who wants to experience a little exercise coupled with a thrilling history lesson.

I dare you to deny that it gives you goosebumps!

Thank you Dickie for a wonderful evening.

Sina, Germany
To our guide Dickie:
Four German girls say "Vielen Dank" for the great tour. We enjoyed it a lot and had a nice evening! :-)

Annika, Uppsala, Sweden
We took the tour on Sat 26th July and Dicky was our guide.
The tour was great and it's well worth the money. (I actually payed more than the 7 pounds since I was so impressed with Dicky)

Nate , New Zealand
I have to admit to being a bit skeptical at first, but soon found myself completely enthralled. Ken did an excellent job, was both informative and entertaining. Seven pounds for an evenings good entertainment and education, with a good after dinner walk thrown in is possibly the best value thing I have done in London. Being a full moon helped the atmosphere too :-) Keep up the excellent work!

Tina & Royal Surrey County Hospital Theatres group, Guildford
Thank you for a fantastic night of entertainment & information we were all captivated by the ripper tour given by Dicky. Especially creepy wandering around White Chapel at night... it was like stepping back in time in places!
We will all be booking again!

Jan,Jane,Pod,Ed, York England
we went on the Ripper tour on 5th September on a very wet night! Despite this, the tour guide kept us thoroughly entertained. He had a really in depth knowledge not just of the Ripper but also the history of London. Steve was our guide and he really is a terrific person and so well informed we forgot we were soaking!

Fred and Alex, France
Thank you Kev for this fantastic tour!!!! We know now who is jack the ripper!!!or maybe not....!
Very informative even if Kev speaks a little bit too fast for us!!!!Good exercise to improve our english anyway!!! ;-)
Thank you again!!!!!

Lucy, Jacqui & Dawn, Essex
Dickie's tour was very informative and enjoyable. Throughly entertaining. We would reccomend this tour to everybody !! thank you.

Steve and Diana, Michigan USA
Beefeater by day, tour guide by night, our guide was excellent. Very entertaining and full of facts. This tour was the highlight of our stay in London

T & J Joshua, North London
We went on the tour to help our 14 year old son with his history project. We were very surprised how much we enjoyed it, Mark was excellent! My son felt very able to complete his homework. Thanks Mark for a great evening.

Dave & Shereen, Liverpool, Merseyside
We absolutley loved the tour and presentation from dickie, We couldn't stop talking about the whole tour days and weeks after walking around all the historic jack the ripper sights in the olde east end, we have recommended it to everyone we know, If your coming to London you have to make sure you do the ripper tour, As a trip to London wouldn't be the same without it, Dickie was excellent with his insight and knowledge and also entertaining, Thanks Dickie!

Matt, Swansea, MA
I was in London last week and decided to check out this tour. It was great! Dickie was our guide and he did a fantastic job of bringing the Whitechapel murders to life. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone that wants to learn some history on Jack or London itself and hear some stories that will stay with you for an awfully long time.

Chris & Nic, Canvey Island, Essex
Many Thanks to Dickie for a very entertaining, detailed and insighful visit to Victorian London! Even after a long day's shopping in the West End, Dickie's rendition of events kept us gripped and our achy legs were soon forgotten! We will definately be recomending this tour to all our family and friends!

Alexi P., London
Thanks heaps for a nice evening ! Our guides' skillfully told anecdotes surrounding the series of murders committed by Jack the Ripper around Whitechapel, along with visits of the sites and period illustrations of the murder scenes and living conditions paint a wonderfully gruesome picture of the mysterious series of crimes and the circumstances under which they were committed. It struck me to which extent the social divide and the notoriously bad life of the lowest social ranks that set the scene for the murders, also seem to be characterising London to this day. Or was this perhaps the intended morale?

L. Löschenkohl, CPH, Denmark
The 7th of august me and my mate went for the ripper tour. As the other comments state. This was a fantastic tour. All in all, we just want to thank our guide Simon for fantastic experience. Don't know what to say - Simon you are the best, thanks alot!

Best regards from Denmark. Btw, i passed your card to some fellows going to London next month..

sharon lopez, london
thanks kev for an informative evevning, with the cobbles under foot and the great tales you told what more could we of asked for? well maybe we could of done without the corny jokes but than again maybe not. excellent guide.

Anthony Hamlet & Kristy Hindle, Ashton Under Lyne, M/C England
Excellent tour. We attended the tour on July 16th and our guide Dickie made the the whole experiance thoroughly enjoyable. He added an element of excitment with his commentry and the information he provided helped you get a good feel for what life was like in the times of thr ripper.

Debbie and Natalie Froggatt, Sheffield
Thanks to Kev for our tour on the 8th August. Despite the corny jokes it was a very informative and interesting tour. We
would not have tried the walk on our own and being in some of the older locations made the story come to life.

Robert & Cathy, NW England
We were taken on the tour by Simon, who made the tale of Jack The Ripper come alive! Very informative and entertaining, would recommend this tour to anyone. He clearly knows his subject well.

valentina, turin, italy
the tour was fantastic and kevin is very funny and kind,so...enjoy it!!

Steven & Leanne, North East Of England
Had tour from Simon on the evening of the 7th of August and cannot fault any part of the tour. Excellent value for money, very informative not only about Jack the Ripper but also about the East End, just the right amount of people and the presentation was of an extremely high standard.

Thanks for an exceptionally enjoyable evening.

Turner Family, England
Our guide was Steve, an animated and theatrical man who greeted us well before he took us on a journey from West to East (the East end of London to be exact). Together we retraced the murder path of the infamous JACK!!! The evening culminating in discovering the true identity of this sick and vicious murderer. Thanks for a great evening.

Stevens family, Earley & Tooting UK
Our thanks to Kev for a very interesting and enjoyable' Jack the Ripper' tour 8 August. You just have to take in this tour if visiting London. You'll be intrigued by Kevs narration regarding the gruesome murders of 1888,in the area it all happened.

Darren Innes, Woongarrah, NSW, Australia
Excellent Tour. No bookings, no hassles, very reasonable price. We found Kevin to be a lively guide that made the experience an enjoyable one, whilst also throwing in some bad jokes.
Would have no hesitation in recommending this to friends for their future travels.

Emma, London
Absolutely loved it. Simon was our guide and he was fantastic - informative, funny and intriguing.
I will definitely be recommending this tour to friends. Thanks Simon!

Dana, Alberta, Canada
When I told my cousin I was coming to England for a visit and that I would like to spend a few days of my visit in London I told her that I didn't care if I saw nothing else in London as long as I got to do a Jack the Ripper tour. I left it in her hands to look in to tours and book the one she thought was best. She did not disappoint.

We went on the tour tonight with Simon as our guide. As soon as he started talking to us, I knew I'd met him earlier in the day. He was also my guide at the Tower of London. He did not disappoint with either one. He left us laughing many a time tonight and made us jump a few times too.

I would definitely recommend the Ripping Yarn Tours to anyone who wants to learn more about Jack the Ripper.

Thanks Simon for making my last night in London a very memorable one, and teaching me more about Jack the Ripper!

Kristy, London, England
Just arrived home from an evening with Simon, and I couldn't have imagined a better way to spend a Thursday night! The tour was entertaining and very informative, and I have never been so pleased to be compared to a fence! The added bonus of a colourful local just made the whole evening more enjoyable.

Thank you very much Simon, for making my cousin's final evening in London the most memorable of the whole trip!

Robin & Naomi, Kent
Chris was our guide. I'd been told by a friend at work not to miss this tour as it was really good. We were not disappointed. Chris built up the suspense wonderfully. Every street corner had its piece of history. We had two young children with us and he let us know when we needed to cover their delicate ears. 2 hours not to miss while in London. Great tour.

susan croft and family, midlands
went on a tour with ken, just turned up did not know what to expect but what a fantastic surprise. Ken was funny and full of knowledge. All the family enjoyed it including our teenagers (you now how hard they are to please). Take this tour you will not regret it. Big thanks ken.

Paul + Mel, Tilbury, Essex
We went Sat 26th July and had Dicky,
We started at 6:50 and it went on till 9:20

If you ever want a very funny, very informed guide please make sure you ask for a day when hes giving the tour, you wont be disapointed!

Like somebody a few comments below me said, we passed loads of other groups, some had headsets and speakers and some were in huge groups, some seemed to be running around like headless chickens, but none seemed to have the charm and charisma of Dicky!

He seemed wise and very chatty. one minute he would get creepy and we would all be spooked, the next we were laughing :)! we would walk for a few mins then he would stop and give a little talk, always waiting for people to catch up and it never felt rushed at all, he often asked if we had any questions and asked us what our views / opions were. he was full of intresting facts about london in general as we were going round its a full tour of the east end not just the ripper murders!

I would really recomend the dicky tour to anybody, when we got home everybody we told about the tour wanted to go!

My partner Mel also agreed that for £7 you really cannot find a better night out in london, ive been to 3 'top' shows and this tour kocked spots off them easily.

In short - Top night out !

Charlie, Texas, USA
I went on the tour on the 25 of July. It was a great tour. Our tour guide Dickie was Excellent. He was funny and he really made you think about who done it. The tour group wasn't to big so your able to hear everything. And at the end of the tour he drops you off right at the tube station. I recommend this tour to everybody.

robin hill and family, northern ireland
dickie was a great source of information about jack good local knowledge delivered in a who done it fashion, with bags of humour. we all enjoyed our trip to london but we all agree that this was the highlight and most memorable thanks

Mick Wilcox, Retford Notts
Thank you Simon Dodds for a thoroughly entertaining and informative evening. Our group was still discussing who the culprit was after the walk. Although the weather was poor Simon conducted the tour with humour, intrigue and style. Really pleased we came with your company, thoroughly professional. Special thanks Simon, a great end to the day.

George, Los Angeles
Did the tour (Jul22 ) with Chris. Only 15 or so on the tour which made it very personal. Chris still has his parade ground voice and bearing so no problem hearing or understanding. He was witty and informative. We passed other tours with hordes of people and weak voiced guides. This was my second time on the tour. Believe me, this is the tour to take! For seven quid (and only if you are satisfied) you get to hear a great and terrifying story from a genuine beefeater!

Rob and Jema, Leicester
Fantastic tour, Ken gave us a very good insite into the "world of Jack the Ripper". If your visiting London I highly recomend anyone to go on this tour

Jackie Young, Essex
What a fantastic evening! From the off Ken had me hooked! He really knew his stuff and was a fantastic tour guide! No money required up front but there is no question about wether you would pay or not it was well worth the money!
I'll be back in the winter months to really add to the eariness. Many thanks Ken you were excellent!

Lauren, Boston, USA
Dicky was amazing. My friends and I enjoyed the tour so much, and have been suggesting it to all our friends in our summer program. It was totally worth it for us to go to (we came all the way from Oxford for the evening just to go!). Great information, very amusing, and even though a lot of walking we didn't mind at all!

steve and christine butcher, oldham
Fantastic tour on 16th of July. we've been on tours like this before but this was way ahead of the rest, I learnt more about whitechapel and the area and about the murders on this tour than any other.
Dickie was the guy that took us around that evening and he was great, he chatted to almost everyone and told us little known facts and sayings. great night and well worth £7 each well done.

Jayme lee Pablos, Watford, Herts
i had a wikid time on my 20th birthday last saturday doing the tour!!! Not what i expected at all! The group wasnt too big, but the jokes were awful! haha! But i got lots of information and all my friends really enjoyed themselves, and id recommend it to anyone, although you really should go in the winter where it'll be darker whilst your on the tour to add to the effect! Thanks a lot steve-o! xxx

David, London
I've lived in and around London almost all of my life but Ken showed us a whole new side of it that I'd never seen. It was a great way to spend a couple of hours with a fascinatingly macabre theme and a great storyteller.

lulu, glasgow
excellant tour cannot praise dicky enough.

Lindsay & Richard, Ipswich (now London)
After living in Whitechapel for sometime and being aware of the Jack Ripper connection with the area, we finally got around to taking the tour - it was well worth the wait!
Our tour guide Dickie was awaiting our arrival and we set off bang on time. Dickies charisma and knowledge immediately drew us in and took us back in time to 1888. Suddenly the streets we had walked down on a dialy basis took on a whole new light and will never be the same again!
A great evening that doesnt cost the earth. A good way to get out and about in London. Fantastic delivery from Dickie; brought this old tale back to life. Thanks.

Kerri, Melbourne, Australia
I have been living in London for a year and have always wanted to do the tour. I wish I didn't wait so long. It was brilliant.

I am tempted to go and do it again!

Dicky was our tour guide he's brilliant. He really knows his stuff. His knowledge (of the ripper and London), combined with presentation style and humour really made the tour.

I didn't know anything about Jack the Ripper before, but there were people on the tour who knew lots and I think we were all catered for.

A definite must!

Request Dicky

Fabio, Tyrol, Austria
Hey Everybody!
We were very impressed from the tour with DICKY! HE made the tour realistic and vith humor. It was a nice evening throw the streets of london and we learnd new things about Jack the ripper and the secrtes around him.

Thanks to Dicky!
I really recommend the tour with the team from FROM HELL!

Greeds out of Tyrol, Austria, Fabio

Lisa and Kev, Hampshire, UK
We stumbled across this tour by accident, but so glad we did!
After a great day at the Tower, we were just entering the tube station to return home when we noticed Dickie gathering a crowd.
I've always been interested in Jack the Ripper, but Dickie really brought the story to life. He was full of information and really seemed to know the details and locations.
I would definately recommend this tour, was a great end to a great day!

Michelle, Sussex, England
We went with Mark on the 26th June, it was truely amazing and full of information. Really opens you up to more when you're seeing and hearing from professionals who have looked into this

Tracey, David, Sarah, Christian and Kristal, Telford, Shropshire
This tour was fantastic and would definitely recommend. Steve was our guide and "he rocks". Very informative with lots of photos. He also tried hard with the jokes!!! 5 stars.

Eliet, Australia
Ken was awesome. We had a really great time walking the streets and getting a real feel for the horrors experienced back in the 1800's. We had a real laugh with Ken who was a genious! He made the tour so much more enjoyable than we could have imagined. Thanks, the girl in the blue scarf from Wednesday night..

Bill and shona, Texas
This tour was the best ken showed us around white chapel, we read about the ripper murders and wanted to see the area, we were not disappointed Ken was so good with the explanation very knowledgable. top tour so far.

Rhona and Craig, Glasgow
The tour was very informative, funny, and enjoyable.
The guide (Dickie) really brought history and the locations we visited to life! Would recommend anyone visiting London, was far more professional than many other tours we've been on. :)

Marie and Alan, Basildon, Essex, UK
We went on a tour with Steve, we loved it. He was very funny (and we did laugh at some of his jokes) and he was very knowledgeable. The two hours just flew by and we would recommend this tour to everyone.

Ian Muir, Kent
Steve was our guide and was extremely knowledgeable and had a great sense of humour.

The tour was great and we were very surprised how many of the little cobble streets and original buildings are still there today within the shadow of the city. We had a great time and plan another tour later on in the year. I been on many tours and this was one of the best tours to date.

Thanks. Christine and Ian

Laura, Sussex, England
Went on the tour with Mark, absolutely excellent. First class guide - really personable, interesting and friendly. The tour really brings the facts to life. We found it thrilling and a bit scary. Totally recommended!

Dillon,Bev and Group, USA
We went on this tour the other night with Ken, it was great. Not only was it interesting but it was fun. Ken gave all the greusome details of the Murders and passed on local knowledge as well. Ken was very proffessional, He made sure that all of the group was involved this is not to be missed if in London. We reccomend it 100%. Good look Ken Next time we will come to the Tower of London.

Philip Johnston, Virginia, USA
Kevin was superb--funny, educated, personable, couldn't ask for better. I have already recommended the tour to a baker's dozen of my friends and family. I traveled through five countries in three weeks, and this tour made it onto my list of top five things to do in Europe. Definitely will return.

Thanks Kevin!

anthea , london
we had a great time, kev is a great guide.this was my second time on the tour, i would definately do it again. cheers kev.

Zoe & George, Essex
A really interesting tour we throughly enjoed the whole 2 hours and our guide Kevwas funny and informative.

I feel now we know who Jack the ripper was I would highly recommend to all my friends!!! Excellent

Jennifer Cardona --EF TOURS FLORIDA GROUP!, Orlando, FL
Where to I begin...

It was part of our personal itinerary that we MUST go on this tour when we got to London. To our pleasant surprise we had Dickie as our tour guide for this WONDERFUL AND SCARY trip down history's past.

He took the groups on this specific tour around White Chapel, all of EF TOUR's from Florida [my group!], Alabama, and Idaho but made the experience just as intimate as if dealing with a small group.

He was SO amazing, entertaining, knowledgeable, and made our experience everything we had been hoping for. This was an American group that wanted to go to this infamous tour and was not disappointed! So professional and focused on retelling these stories, and so much fun! I can't say enough about Dickie!

We ended up running into him also at the Tower Of London, and he was so kind and welcoming. He never forgot our faces! I hope he will read this, because really, he made The Jack the Ripper tour the HIGHLIGHT OF OUR TRIP!

If you want to be scared and educated on the terrifying history of Jack the Ripper and if you're in London, go to this tour and REQUEST DICKIE!! HE'S AWESOME!

Jessica and Victoria, kent
done this tour on saturday. found it by acident. but it was excellent. Ken warned us about the heckklers that we might bump into and was right. but he was very proffessional and got on with it, in fact it added to the drama. do this tour. best value we have had for our money.

Jeannie and Jennifer, Eugene, Oregon
what a great time! It was pouring down rain, but the tour still went on and we had a blast. Thank you so much for a great evening.

Eric Carlson, Chicago
I am from Chicago but living in London for awhile, and had some friends over. Despite having just done the tour 2 months ago when my parents were over, took 4 friends who were in town. Kevin did not disappoint. All 5 of us had a great time and learned a lot. Kevin should not have to buy the beer at the end of year Beefeater party!!

douglas william scully, dundee scotland
our guide kevin was excellent as was tour would reccomend to anyone

B, London
Kev or was it steve?! lol. Was brilliant! Deffinitely go again and would recommend this tour to everyone!

Jackie, Ipswich
Kev is a legend. Certainly knew his stuff, and, coupled with his entertainment, was a perfect guide!

Chuck Hubbard, Denver, USA
I'm really glad my daughter talked my wife and me into taking the tour. Kev provided an outstanding tour with great entertainment and numerous facts thrown in for fun. This definitely was the highlight of our brief visit to the UK.

charlie and lorraine, west country
We went on this tour with Ken, Fantastic what a story he tells with passion. all in the group thought it the best thing that they have done. Do not go on any other tour. Ripping Yarns is tops.

Jessica, London, UK
I was on the Saturday tour with Dickie and it was excellent. My feet killed by the end of it! But it was really interesting, building on a topic I was already interested in and had a little knowledge about. I certainly feel more connected to the real people now! Thanks.

Christie Vanderloh, Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada
I went on the April 13th tour with Steve. I found it to be very interesting, informative and entertaining as well. Steve did a wonderful job of painting a vivid picture of life in 1880's London and the sort of lives the women who were Jack's victims lived. I will be recommending this tour to anyone who goes to London.

Anne & Brianne, Bolton
Did the tour on Sunday 21 April with Chris. Was worried about picking the wrong tour as I booked on the internet and had no recommendations. Didn't need to! Tour, and Chris, was great. Very informative, and fun, and burnt off lots of calories! Saw other, very large, bored looking groups traipsing round and soooooooo glad I picked this one. Will certainly recommend to anyone visiting London. Thanks Chris for transporting us back in time to 1888, see I did learn something 'in the nick of time', and bringing us safely back to Tower Hill and 2008.

Janice, Manchester
We did the tour with Dickie on Saturday night and it was brilliant, the highlight of the weekend. Thanks very much.

THE REED FAMILY, Essex, England
We did the walk last evening (5/4/08) with Kev and he was brilliant. Very informative with the odd corny joke thrown in, he certainly knows his stuff. Remember to cover your face if you see a rat!!

Rob, London
Steve was brilliant. Very funny guy (we'll ignore the odd bomb here and there).
Great tour. Well-described and informative.
Don't worry about the unresponsiveness of the group.
That's no reflection on the great job you did mate.
Will keep an eye out for you in the Tower.

AdamD , Oakland, CA
The tour I took, led by Dickie, was the highlight of my trip to London. I was a little apprehensive about going on a walking tour, but the fact that you pay up after the tour set me at ease. Totally blew me away. The length of the tour (two hours), the neighborhoods I wouldn't have thought to explore, and his telling of the story all made for a top notch experience. I went on a Haunted London walk from another group a few days later and it didn't measure up at all.
This is by far the best.

Erin, New York, USA
Kev is an awesome tour guide and I guess his jokes are okay too =)

Ashley, Australia
Your tour was absolutely awesome! Couldn't have asked for a better tour guide Dickie, keep up the good work. Would definately recommed to friends...

Hannah, Maidstone, Kent
Dicki's tour was absolutely fantastic. Extremely fascinating and Dicki's knowledge of the subject was amazing. I thoroughly enjoyed it and definitley reccommend it!

Louise & Sam (chris's sound affect girls), London
Our guide was Chris who was very imformative and dramatic very interesting evening and have recommended it to other people.

Warning where comfortable walking shoes and in winter wrap up warm.

very enjoyable night.

Scot, London, UK
Kevin's tour is epic.

Marshall Family, Isle of Man
Q. What do you do on a cold easter friday evening.
A. Go on a Jack the Ripper Tour.
Yes it was cold and dark, all the better for visiting the east end of london. We can assure you that this tour is well worth it, our guide Ken was excellent. He gave us the full low down on Jack and put in some extras. we will be back to go again and visit the Tower of London at the same time. A+++

Ali, Whitechapel
3 years living in Whitechapel, drinking on occasion at the Ten Bells, dodging the odd rat and having several overseas friends telling me I should do this tour...What a brilliant evening! (although cold)
Kev was a fountain of interesting knowledge and the jokes - not too bad!
I will definitely be recommending THIS tour to others -especially in the summer.
Thanks

Rachel & John Fenwick, Shropshire/Durham
Mark was outstanding as a guide. Of all the comments he states at the start of his tour, "fun" is definitely the word of the evening. There wasn't a question he couldn't answer, and his enthusiasm for the subject was infectious. We were so impressed, we diverted from our itinery the next day to see him in his usual garb as Yeoman Warder. Highly recommended. Can't imagine any other tour would be as thorough or as entertaining.

Rachel, Amanda and Kris, South Dakota
We went on the tour with Kev and he was AWESOME!!! We also happened to run into him at the Tower of London a few days later! We had a great time, he was very fun and knowledgable. We recommended this tour to everyone we met!! thank you again for making our trip to London so wonderful!

PS...all you other tours guides should have to buy the booze because Kev ROCKED!

mum and daughter, yorkshire, england
a great way to spend a Saturday night despite the cold!! Kev was brilliant with a wealth of information.We desided at the last minute to go on the tour and we were not disapointed. Next time I am in London I shall take my Husband on the tour, hopfully with Kev again.

Family Dupree, London
We've lived in East London all our lives and saw parts we never knew about. Excellent entertainment Ken was brilliant.

Justin Lansdell & Sonia Webb, Norwich, Norfolk, UK
Went on the tour with Kev on Sat 9th March, fan-bloody-tastic evening and Kev's knowledge and humour brought the whole evening to life despite the cold weather. Sonia had nightmares - enough said!
Thoroughly recommended for all.

Billie, London, UK
LOVED this tour. Great balance of knowledge and fun. Would do this tour again when some more non-london friends visited!

Thanks so much!

Jill, South Dakota, United States
Visited London a few weeks ago and went on the tour with Mark (of the Awesome Hat). Very informative and very professional. He knew how to keep the group together and safe, how to address everyone, how to get his information across, and was over all very entertaining and interesting. To all my friends visiting London, I'm suggesting they check out your tour.

Thu and Mark (part of a group of 8), London
Kev was bloody Great! a wealth of knowledge and made the whole Jack the Ripper experience well worth the cold of london. Will be bringing our foreign friends to see Kev again when they come later in the year. Cheers Big Ears!

Greta, Pidder, Gustav & Viv., London
Dickie, great tour, we all very much enjoyed the evening.

Sean Miller, Glastonbury
I went on one of your tours several years ago - the tour guide was a retired Beefeater and it was an excellent evening which I thoroughly enjoyed. At the time I'd been reading a lot of Ripper books and as we walked I found it fascinating to run some of the theories off the well-informed guide.

A couple of years ago I decided to try another tour, this time with a certain company who do tours and have a thick white leaflet. Not only was the magic not there, the guide aloof and appearing to be working to a script but when the tour ended I was abandoned somewhere in the middle of Whitechapel... it took me ages to find my way back to a tube station.

So be warned those who go for the other because their leaflet is everywhere - you'll be getting an inferior product.

Jenna, Meg and Aine, Cornwall, Wales and Kerry
Dickie,
Don't be going to Cork now...Kerry is far superior.
Twas an amazing experience, we were enthralled by your awesome presence. We're all too scared to walk the streets of London now, due to your intense story telling!
Catch us if you can...............mwhahahahahahaha

Dave & Jeanette, Blackburn
We took the tour with Dickie on 21.02.08. He was great, very theatrical and entertaining. He obviously enjoys it. A proper chap!

A great tour. We went on 4th Feb and thoroughly enjoyed it. Well done Kevin. Apologies for half of us not getting your jokes. They have been informed.

Many thanks
Smithdon High History Group

Heidi Young, Norfolk, England
On the afternoon of 4th February I took 27 of my History GCSE students, all aged 15, on the tour. Our guide was Kevin and he was fantastic; the students were totally engrossed and thoroughly loved the whole experience. I have highly recommended this tour to many friends and colleagues, it was sooooo good! I will definitely return next year with another group of students as I have written in into the scheme of work as an essential educational visit. Thanks a million Kevin, even if your 'jokes' were a bit suspect!

Barbara and Ariel Maldonado, East Longmeadow, Massachusetts
A bit overdue in writing about our tour with Kevin....It was absolutely wonderful. We realize that Kevin does the tours, probably in his sleep, however, he gave us a tour as if it was his 1st with excitement and enthusiasm. With a group of 15 or so..it was ideal...We passed several large groups along the way who looked quite bored. They were not able to hear the guides who appeared to be lackluster and rote.......Thanks, Kevin...Have a great pic of you and the tour @ home.....

Ian Horrocks, Rossendale, Lancs , England
my girlfriend and i were on the tour last night (17th of feb) we had a wonderful time made extremely enjoyable by the tour guide Mark ,whose knowledge is second to none . i have told all my friends and relatives this is a tour not to be missed . thank you for an informative and amusing night , well done guys

Kimberley , Australia
I am a student doing Jack the Ripper for a Major assessment task. I went on the tour on the 25th of January expecting something completely dead. I was gratefully surprised when it turned out to be the best tour have ever been on and as a student i have been on many. Absoultley better than anyone else or teacher could have taught me
If you get the chance take it up
Thanks for a great night

Nigel & Vi Turner, Cardiff, Wales
Did the tour on Thursday 7th with Dickie as the guide. A well conducted and informative tour from a Beefeater who is knowledgeable and has a quick witted sense of humour.
Although we really came for the Tut Exhibition at the O2 the tour was the highlight of the break.
I will recommend the tour to everyone plus include website links to anyone who is interested. Will definately do the tour next time we are back.

Thank you for for a great evening.

dave wakefield, stafford
Sunday 10th February. We had Dickie as our guide, he was great, full of information, both about Jack and other parts of london.

It was an amazing experience to walk along cobbled streets knowing that Jack had once walked those same streets looking for victims.

I can fully reccomend the walk, wear some comfy shoes and enjoy the experience.

Darren Cook, Brisbane, Australia
What a great night! I went last Sunday the 10th. Dickie was a seasoned professional and certainly knew his stuff. Trying not to put people off but I didnt get a good night's sleep afterwards, maybe it was the picture Dickie painted that made my blood turn to ice. Well worth it

Jade Wild, Reigate
Well..we had steve, he was amazing, he wasnt very good at his jokes though (only joking), see im better at joking then him :D..but yeah..it was REALLY good and i would definently go again :D. I recommend it !..And my dad said he will see steve in the bar like he said anytime =)

If your thinking about going..GO ! Trust me its not scary appart from i stood where one of the ladys got killed :O.

Philip Lamont, Berwick upon Tweed
Great tour last Saturday (3 February 2008). Quite a big group it being a Saturday, but Mark was excellent as the guide. And Jack the Ripper is... well, you need to go on the tour to find out!

Stephen Owen, East Sussex
A quality tour,Ken really put his all into the evening. Just the right size group unlike others we passed that evening. A must tour whilst in London

Thank you!

Im not into things like that but he loves it & knows all about famous killers.We both really enjoyed it, i was surprised that i liked it.Now im hooked!well worth the money & the walk. A+ from us!

Marie Smith , Sussex, England
We did our tour on Monday 10th December. Our guide for the evening was an informative Mark. It was a very interesting tour with extra bits of 'gossip' thrown in as well.
Mark, it appears you are right, your not mentioned much on the guest book - perhaps you need to continue torturing more of your guests to get mentioned!
Good value for money, good fun, highly recommended.

Lozza , London
Dickie was our guide and he was absolutely brilliant. Excellent tour (walking shoes a good idea) - would recommend to anyone. A++++

Steinar, Norway
Had a nice trip a few months ago(can`t remember his name but he was one of the beef eaters). I fully recommend this to everyone, it was exeLLent!

My friend and I went on the 22nd of December tour and we were very impressed!! Kev was excellent, one of the best tour guides we've had. He made it funny and exciting. Will definitely be telling my mates to go on this tour. Great stuff ;)

Selena, Suffolk, England
We had a brilliant tour with Steve, he is a very knowledgeable guide. Would definitely recommend this tour.

Lisa, London
The tour on Friday 14th December 2008 was fantastic, very informative, worth every penny and would recommend to others!! Mark our tour guide was excellent!!

Jessica, Minnesota, USA
I went on this tour with Dickie almost a week ago, and I was so busy traveling I didn't get a chance to fill out this form. I must say it was amazing though! I had a great time, and learned a lot. It was a good sized group, so I was able to hear everything clearly. Also, Dickie did a great job of pointing out other random spots of importance, such as Diagon Alley from the Harry Potter movies. Thanks a ton! I've recommended this tour for several of my friends, and I will possibly be returning with my mom in a few weeks. :)

Lorraine Hoddinott, Watanobbi, Australia
I was part of the 3rd of December tour with my sisterm brother and niece. I had heard of Jack but never realised the gruesome details of the murders. Chris brought the tale to life and made it a night not to be forgotten!

Livy, Australia / uk
A small group of us working here in london went on the tour with ken the other night it was cold, damp and windy, that did not matter, Ken the guide was excellent and entertaining and kept us on our toes all evening, his knowledge was so good even those who tried to out do him gave up in the end. would reccommend this tour to anyone thanks again Ken

Richard & Tracey, West Midlands, England
We had Dickie as our tour guide for the tour on the 8th of December and he is both knowledgeable and entertaining in his tour of Whitechapel. Wear some good walking shoes as the tour doesn't hang around!! Very good tour and highly recommended to anyone, from the UK or from abroad. Atmospheric on a cold Winters evening, the only thing missing was a London fog!! Great!!

Ashleigh O'Donnell, Glasgow
My friend and I went out on the tour on the 3rd of December. our tour guide was Chris. Overall it was fantastic - thouraghly enjoyed it and would reccomend it to others visiting London. Thanks!

Kelsey Myron, Austin, TX
It was SUCH a great tour! We had a really great tour guide who really set the mood through all the narrow dimly lit alleyways of East London! I loved it!

Sarah Gordon, Essex, UK
some work colleagues and I attending the Ripping Yarns tour last night, we found it highly enjoyable and factual.

Big thanks to Dickie who led us through the streets of East London and kept us all entertained and interested in the wonderful mystery of Jack the Ripper

Would definitely reccomend this tour to others

Thanks again

Claire Morgan, Essex, UK
We had such a great night! The tour guide (Dickie) was excellent and kept us all very entertained throughout the walk. I can highly recommend this tour – 5/12/07

Michelle, London
Absolutely brilliant! Our guide (Simon) was an amazing and knowledgable guide who wove a story of intrigue and conspiracy in the to tale of the 'Ripper'.

I would higly recommend this tour as it was very good value for money. Only negative was that the tour was a little longer than anticipated (finished at 9.30!) and we were starving hungry!

Christoforo Pasquarette, Minneapolis, MN, USA
I went on the Ripping Yarns tour twice while living in London in 1999, and still enjoy the CD "The True Story of Jack the Ripper" I bought back then. I'm glad to see the tour grow and I think they are the best around.

james and yvonne, s wales

Neil & Kathryn Spencer, Doncaster, South yorkshire, England
Steve, was our guide on the 11th November 07, he was very informative, with his history, and theories into Jack The Ripper, it was the 5th time we've done the walk, each time the tour gets better, and better, one day we may wear our boots out, and flush him out. On the night I video'd the tour and it's a great keep sake of the night, SO STEVE A BIG THANKYOU FOR SUCH A GREAT NIGHT !!!!!!!!

Larry and Laurie, Bristol UK
Did the tour on 09NOV07. Our guide Dickie and the tour were brilliant as they brought us back to 1888 London sparing no one of the chilling details and events. If you are a Jack the Ripper enthusiast, this tour is A MUST DO!! Many Thanks!!

Jo Ward, London
Thank you Simon for a fabulous walk on Halloween. Despite making me jump out of my skin a few times, your inimitable style made the tour informative, enjoyable and good fun. A great evening!

Tom Pfeiffer, Boston, MA
The tour with Simon was THE BEST part of my 4 day trip to London--and it was also the cheapest. I highly recommend this to anyone else, and I hope to go on the tour again next time I visit London.

Alison Austin, London
Chris was our guide and although his jokes were corny we all enjoyed the walk. I even looked up the city gates on the internet and found out more!
Shame so much of old London no longer exists.

Marie and John Gunton, Malvern, Worcestershire
We went on the tour on Friday 2 November 2007 with Simon as our guide. We thoroughly enjoyed it. Simon was very animated and informative - we learnt a lot about the legend of Jack the Ripper adn many other historical facts. It was a very enjoyable evening and one we would recommend highly.

Katie & crew, Islington, London
Just wanted to say how much of a good time we had on our tour on halloween night. Our guide Kev, was incredibly entertaining and very funny.
Overall, a really enjoyable evening, a definite must for all londoners not just tourists! Have recommended it to all my friends here in London.

Beverley & Peter Frank, coulby newham cleveland
Simon was a very informative,freindly, interesting guide. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour,learning new things along the way. The photos were interesting, it was the highlight of our 4 day stay in london. We even went for a drink the very next day to the 10 bells and what a surprise we got. Very interesting. Keep working hard simon, we felt relaxed in your company.

Ian Albert, London
We went on the Halloween night Rippper tour with Simon. He tricked us a few times and treated us to a great evening out.

Highly recomended.

Josephine Lewis , DWP - Londond
Simon was our guide last night for the tour. I would like to say that he was very good, excellent in fact. Very informative and very dramatic. He was a very friendly and approachable person who did not mind us asking questions. Even though I was born and bread in the area I learnt quite a bit about the East End of London last night, and will certainly recommend the tour to friends and work colleagues.

Jo Really interesting tour, full of detail, interest and humour. Really good for all the family, with a no hurried approach over the 2 hours or so .We will all recommend this tour to any who are interested in the Ripper.. Keep up the good work Dickie.

Great tour with Dickie, two weeks ago. Full of information rather than needless scare tactics. Shows that he cared about the info he was giving out. I've already given the tour details and contacts to my travel agent so others too can enjoy the tour.

Yes, I agree with the theory Dickie presented at the tours end.

Dickie "in the middle" was our very excellent tour guide. He gave us an interesting and thorough trip through the back alleys and underbelly of London. He made Victorian England come alive with all it's dark and murderous side. Though graphic, it was informative and very very entertaining! Thank you Dickie for being the icing on our "anniversary trip" cake to London.

Dickie was a FANTASTIC tour guide tonight - he brought the story alive with his excellent delivery. We were very impressed with how organised he was with all his photos and props. Thank you very much. We think your theory with the anagram is correct!

A good informative tour given by Ken who included lots of extra facts and put our minds to work ! Tour was good for two children and Ken warned us of any grusome bits like the photo's so we could use 'parental control' if necessary . Thanks Ken - a good tour !

Hi Kevin.
Thanks for a nice tour around the Whitechapel area on Wednesday 17. october. This time we brought our kids with us, and they were very satisfied with the tour, and all the questions and teories, that was brought up.
There was a lot things my wife and I had forgotten since we walked the tour with you last year, so for us it was a good experience again. We will recommend - Ripping Yarns Jack the Ripper Tours - to all our friends an colleges who are visiting London.
Thanks again for a nice tour.

On Tuesday, 9th October 2007, we join the tour conducted by Kevin who did a good job scaring us describing the bodies and showing the pictures & sketches around. It was quite scary then and at the same time entertaining with jokes in abundance. Good tour, I would recommend it.

My fella Gary & I went on the tour on Sunday and we had a fabulous time! There was a fair amount of people there however, our tour guide was more than accomodating; keeping to an easy pace and speaking clearly enough for us to hear. He even opened our eyes to Harry Potter's Diagon Alley (a hidden gem of London's East End!!). Very creepy in some parts and incredibly eye opening to some of the facts I never knew existed. I strongly recommend this tour!!
