Ripper Vision

Over 125 years in the making - the gruesome tale of Jack the Ripper explodes for the first time into the 21st-Century... with Ripper-Vision.

The World Famous Ripper-Vision™

As we walk the very route that Jack the Ripper would have taken, Ripper-Vision will transport you back to a time of gaslight and fog, a time of poverty, disease and silent footsteps in the shadows as the Ripper hunted his victims. Ripper-Vision brings top class images to leave you with an everlasting immersive experience – taking you fully into the beating heart of Victorian London.

An expert Ripperologist will lead you around the streets that once played centre stage to the world’s most notorious serial killer. London has changed over the years, but the city’s dark history will never be forgotten – not least because of the brutal nature in which Jack the Ripper disposed of his unknowing victims. Ripper-Vision provides an element not available on any other tour, clearly showcasing the Ripper murders in gruesome detail.

"The Ripper-Vision was so clever. Seeing the photos and illustrations of buildings, crime scenes, victims, witnesses, etc. made the stories even more interesting." - Brea, Michigan

“Ripper-Vision really helped to bring the areas we visited to life and we haven't stopped recommending this to friends and family. So glad we booked onto this.” – Gareth F

Sorting Fact from Fiction

Over the 125-plus years since the Ripper murders, there have been endless theories speculating who the killer was, why he committed the crimes and who else may have been in on it. On our Ripper-Vision tour, we sort the facts from the fiction, detailing what we know happened on each fateful night from the evidence we have to hand.

Through our imagery, we can show you each victim and how they were found along with other crucial pieces of evidence – some of which was controversially disregarded by the police. We will provide you with all of the facts and some of our favourite theories, but it will be up to you to draw your own conclusions, possibly solving one of the world's most unsolvable cases.

The tour ends in a convenient location for public transport, in time for a few drinks in the Victorian pub which once served the victims - and perhaps even Jack himself – if that takes your fancy. Before you depart, Ripper-Vision will uncover the face of the man the police should have been looking for, based on eye-witness reports and modern-day criminal profiling technology. Dare you go face-to-face with the Ripper?
