1.London Jack the Ripper Guided Tour with Ripper-Vision

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 4,840 reviews · 1 hour 45 minutes (approx.) · from $27.74Our pick

London’s Jack the Ripper night walk with Ripper-Vision projections through Whitechapel, ending near Spitalfields Market. 7:30 pm, 1h45.

“A huge amount of pointless walking. Too many people on the tour which made it difficult to hear the guide. Presentation lacked perspective and context - essentially marching from place to place to see the spot where each crime was committed. The guide was knowledgeable but keep throwing out names and dates as if that was all anyone needed to know. Guide also spent time trying to sell his book and also pushing people to go on another tour he does on medieval history- including passing out advertising pamphlets. I feel he just should have stayed on point with what we signed on for. The "multimedia" aspect was bogus -…”

3.Ghost Bus Tour of York

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 2,404 reviews · 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes (approx.) · from $27.56

Ghost Bus Tour of York on a classic Routemaster with stops at Clifford’s Tower, York Minster, and Dick Turpin’s grave, plus a pub break.

“I expected the tour to be stories of the paranormal etc but most of it was done as a joke. I couldn't tell if the places and events were real or not. We got off the bus at one point, this was dangerous as we had to follow the guide over a busy road at night. There was no attempt at safety to ensure everyone was back on the bus. Not in the least scarey, too much emphasis on jokes.”

“Me and my daughter went on the creepy Cambridge tour yesterday evening, however, unfortunately the original tour guide was off sick last minute. This is where Alex very kindly stepped in to take the tour, while still wearing his uniform from his punting job. Alex really made the tour come to life, showing us the all creepy parts of Cambridge that we never knew existed. He was able to go into depth about all the history behind the ghostly sighting and was more than happy to answer any of our questions. It was a really enjoyable evening, especially as Alex had to step in last minute. Well done!!”
