About this tour
Walk through London’s East End and trace the stories behind one of history’s most notorious cases. On this 120-minute London Jack the Ripper Walking Tour, an expert guide leads you through the footsteps of Polly, Annie, Elizabeth, Catherine, and Mary Jane, bringing the women behind the headlines into focus. Along the route, examine crime scenes, weigh clues, and consider how much of the familiar story stands up to scrutiny.
Your booking also includes the Ripperologist’s Companion, an interactive case file that opens in your browser. Explore the victims, ten suspects and evidence for and against them, an 1888 map, a timeline, and three puzzles before the walk. The murder sites remain sealed until you have walked the ground, then the full file unlocks after the tour. No separate app purchase is needed; access it with your booking reference and surname.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.81 from 1,426 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 7.1.
