The London Audio Walk following in the footsteps of The Ripper himself, this is not a walk for those with a nervous disposition!

It started in Victorian London in August 1888. Whitechapel, at the heart of a London’s seedy East End, became the backdrop for some of the most brutal murders ever recorded. Following the gruesome events of this Autumn of Terror, the killer was neither apprehended nor identified and the mystery surrounding the awful legacy of ‘Jack the Ripper’ still fascinates many today.

On our walk through the streets which witnessed such terrible atrocities over a century ago, we visit the murder sites, examine the most likely suspects and mull over the possibilities of Royal and Masonic conspiracies. And if you choose, you can refortify yourself with a drink in the pub that would have been the local for many of the unfortunate victims!

Before learning more about the Jack the Ripper audio tour, the audio guide is available for streaming or to download on AmazoniTunesGoogle Play MusicSpotify. Click on the audio page of your choice, and listen to a preview there.

Our Route: From Whitechapel to Aldgate we visit the 5 murder sites within the Ripper’s stalking grounds and give you the opportunity to catch your breath in the Ten Bells which was the local pub at the time of the murders. En route we see many sites of the Modern East End including Spitalfields Market and Brick Lane. The distance is approx 3 miles (4KM), the full audio walk lasts for 50 minutes and usually takes us around 1.5 – 2 hours when we do it.

Best time to go: Anytime, although Spitalfields Market is only open 11- 3 on Sundays whereas it is open from 9 – 6 the rest of the week. We do not recommend this tour after nightfall.

The tour Starts outside Whitechapel Tube Station. Track one of the audio walk will give you full instructions.

And Remember….. This is an audio walk, so you can do it when you like, with people you like and you can stop when you like! You can move around the tracks too, just skip to the next track for directions to the next site when you want to move on. And if you can’t take the walk, listen at home!

We will add a map soon, see below the list of tracks:
