Ripper tour
 
I'm going to London at the end of June, and someone told me to go on the Ripper tour. Does anyone have any info on it? Is it fun? Who do you contact for it? Thanks, V

I did the tour several years ago and it was great fun. I've found a website -- www.jacktheripperwalk.com -- that spells everything out for you. The one tip I can give you is to do your tour with DONALD RUMBELOW himself, since he's THE MAN when it comes to Jack the Ripper. (He's written several books on the subject and has been a consultant to many films.)

Van,<BR><BR>We visited London on our first trip during October. We thought the Jack the Ripper tour was great for Halloween timing. We toured the London Dungeon earlier in the day and by the end of our tour that night, we had all the gore we needed for one trip! It was great fun though. We took the "Bus Trip to Murder" tour with Evans and Evans. It was called something like that. They took us to a haunted house and showed us sights made infamous by Jack the Ripper. All was narrated by a professional actor. We ended the evening with a trip to an old pub and then a fish and chips dinner near the Cutty Sark. Fantastic evening. London is so-o-o much fun. Have a blast!

We did the tour with Donald two weeks ago and HIGHLY recommend doing the tour with Donald if you are interested in JTR.
