Jack the Ripper Walk with Curry in Brick Lane
Starting with a fabulous curry meal at Easter Eye Balti House on the famous Brick Lane, then step into the shadowy streets of Victorian Whitechapel on a guided walking tour led by an expert Ripperologist with 30 years of experience. Dressed in period costume, your guide brings the atmosphere and history of 1888 to life as you explore the streets, landmarks, and locations connected to the infamous Jack the Ripper murders. Begin outside St Botolph’s Church in Aldgate and learn about the poverty, overcrowding, and challenging conditions that shaped the area at the time.
Follow the route through sites associated with Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes, Martha Tabram, Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, and Mary Jane Kelly. Discover the significance of the boundary between the City of London and the Metropolitan Police area, examine the location where a key clue was found, and hear about the notorious letters sent during the investigation. The tour concludes with the story of Mary Jane Kelly, the final victim traditionally associated with the Whitechapel murders, along with the leading theories surrounding the case.
