Highlights

Ablauf

1. At Banglatown Arch we will see where Polly Nichols, Jack's first victim, had her final drink: The Frying Pan Pub. During this part of the tour we'll do some myth busting, discussing the lives of Victorian women in the East End. Then we'll tell the story of Polly Nichols life and her gruesome murder at Buck's Row.

   15 Min.

2. On Hanbury Street, near Brick Lane Vintage Market, we will discuss how 'The Great Stink' made London smell. Then we'll talk about the life and death of Annie Chapman, Jack's second victim. This is where we will ask an important question: Was Jack the Ripper a doctor?

   15 Min.

3. Princelet Street is one of the best preserved streets in the local area. Originally lived in by the Huguenots, we will see a building that is almost completely unchanged since the 1800s: Number 4 Princelet Street. This is where we will have one of the most compelling conversations of the tour: Who is Jack the Ripper? I will give you the evidence, but YOU will have to decide.

   15 Min.

4. The Ten Bells Pub is the only building we believe all the victims once visited. Mary Anne Kelly had her final drink here. We will discuss the history of the pub and the famous people who have drunk there.

   5 Min.

5. At Spitalfields Market we will read the 'Dear Boss' and 'From Hell' letters, learning about how Jack taunted the police.

   15 Min.

6. Again we will disappear into Victorian London, passing down Artillery Passage and crossing into The City of London. This is an immaculately preserved street with some of the best food in the local area.

7. The Bell pub hosted some of the first seances in all of London. Here we will learn about some of the terrible diseases you could catch in Victorian London, before telling the story of Elizabeth Stride, Jack's third victim.

   10 Min.

8. Next to Aldgate Square is Mitre Square - where Catherine Eddowes was killed. Here we will learn about the wonderful life of this artistic, rebellious spirit, and learn about her final night, spent in the City of London police station.

   10 Min.

9. St Botolph Without Aldgate had a very strange reputation in 1888. Here we will talk about this, while learning about Mary Kelly.

   15 Min.

10. On our final stop we will SOLVE the crime... or will we? Having learned about the five victims, we will discuss the suspects once again and discover who, out of our top three, was actually most likely to be Jack.

About London

London verbindet königliches Zeremoniell, Weltklassemuseen und Wahrzeichen am Fluss mit eigenständigen Vierteln, Märkten und Parks für Fußgänger.

Die Themse hält die Stadt zusammen. An ihren Ufern stehen das Parlament mit Big Ben, der Tower mit den Kronjuwelen, die Tower Bridge und der lange Spazierweg der South Bank, vorbei am London Eye, Shakespeares Globe und der Tate Modern. St Paul's Cathedral und Westminster Abbey bestimmen die ältere Skyline, während sich im Finanzviertel Glastürme drängen.

Top-ranked sights in London: St. Paul's Cathedral, Stonehenge, Tower of London.
