About this tour
Walk through the streets of London’s East End and revisit the 1888 murders through the lives of the five women whose stories are often overshadowed by the killer’s name. On this London Jack the Ripper guided tour, an expert guide leads you to the crime scenes, where you can examine clues and question familiar accounts of the case.
Your walk comes with the free Ripperologist’s Companion, an interactive case file you can open in your browser using your booking reference and surname. Explore the victims’ stories, weigh evidence for and against ten suspects, study an 1888 map and timeline, and tackle three puzzles. The murder sites remain sealed in the file until you have walked the ground, then the full case unlocks after the tour. Interactive games and a quiz add another way to test your theories.
Meet at Altab Ali Park’s west entrance and arrive 15 minutes early. Follow the evidence, remember the people behind the headlines, and see how much of the familiar story stands up. Join this London Jack the Ripper guided tour and investigate the case on the streets where it unfolded.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.84 from 1,848 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in London
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.5. Top 26% in London means it ranks in the top 26% of tours in London by this score.
