"Hottest" Selling Services | Jack the Ripper Walk is a hot seller as everyone is curious as Jack was never caught, never identified! So it's a never-ending mystery but one that we can give a rational theory about that fits with the area and the times it happened in |
|
Specializes In | We specialize in the gruesome dark side of London's history |
|
How We Got Started | Well that's a long story, a trip to Jamaica to stay with a friend who was a guide, came back determined to work in the tourist industry but not in an office selling tours! Just by chance to answer questions on a course for leisure and tourism, went into a pub in Aldgate that had a gallery of the Ripper's victims in the back started asking questions of the landlord for my course (as it was an interesting place for tourists to visit )and lo and beholod the lanlord was involved in a course funded by the local council to teach people to be walking tour guides of Aldgate/Spitalfields, the very area wher Jack murdered his victims. Did the course and started working or the landlord and his partner who were running Jack the Ripper walks. That was 25 years ago! here I still am guiding Jack the Ripper Walks but now with my own company! |
|
Favorite Part of the Business | I love the reactions of the customers when they realize that they are going to have a real in depth look at the life and time of 1888! |
|
Customer Can Expect | I dress in Victorian costume to give the walk a real authentic feel and show many many photos of the streets, murder victims and newspapers of the time |
