I recently took a Jack the Ripper tour in London with my teenage daughter, guided by Richard, and it was fantastic. We stayed in Whitechapel for a week, so we decided to give it a try since this is right in the area, and it exceeded all our expectations! Especially for my daughter, as a teen, she is hard to convince. Richard brought the story to life with a deep dive into the socio-economic conditions of the East End during that era. He did more than just tell us about Jack the Ripper's sensational crimes (and those were covered fantastically well as well); he painted a very vivid picture of what Whitechapel looked like at the time, how the people lived, and the struggles they faced, all backed up by historical photos. Richard's approach was both intelligent and engaging, which made the tour not only informative but also incredibly immersive. His narrative style, subtle British humor and articulate speech made the information very easy to absorb and incredibly enjoyable. The earphones Richard provided were a great touch, ensuring we could hear everything perfectly. The group size was perfect. Instructions were very well provided about the meeting place and Richard kept in touch prior and after the tour sending some additional information and content. The tour was a highlight of our London trip, and Richard's storytelling was a big part of that. I'd definitely go back for another one of his tours, maybe even for this one again! So well done! Very professional and passionate. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in history delivered in a compelling intelligent way. Anna and Sasha

What a fun tour! As a history lover I really, really enjoyed learning about life in Whitechapel in the late 1800s, and learning about the Jack the Ripper story from the perspective of the poor souls who experienced it, rather than the cartoonish story we normally hear. Our tour guide Richard was a lot of fun and really knowledgeable. If you are looking for a regular old ghost tour I don't know if this is for you, but I consider this so much better.

Richard is amazing. He is a true researcher and presented clearly all the possibilities and the facts. I learned a lot more info than I had about Jack the Ripper. Thank you.
