Overview
**NEW - AUDIO NARRATION ON ENGLISH LANGUAGE VERSION** This is not a tour for the faint-hearted. It’s a sobering investigation into one of London’s darkest chapters. Today, the crime scenes are part of a busy, modern city — but the trail overlays them with evidence and testimony that bring 1888 vividly to life. It’s a tour for the mind as much as for the body. There are no lurid performances here. Just the real locations, original sources and the cold facts of the case. Learn how five brutal murders became the world’s most enduring mystery. At the end, you’ll confront the same question that has haunted investigators for 130 years: who was Jack the Ripper? Fully playable in 11 languages (English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Arabic) — no guide required. Starts: Aldgate Tube (Aldgate High St) Ends: Liverpool St Tube (Bishopsgate) Distance: 2 km For adults & teens with an interest in crime history
