Far from conventional trade routes, this experience offers a high-impact dive into 1888 London, designed for those who seek historical and criminological truth at the heart of the East End.
Guided by José Oranto, resident researcher in Whitechapel. His mastery of the case allows a fluid and technical narrative, based on the knowledge of those who study the field on a daily basis, away from memorized scripts. Awarded the Robert Linford Award (2023) — the highest international recognition in the investigation of the case. Their work has been key to reconstructing the actual biographies of the victims and bringing to light hitherto unknown evidence.
Respect and Ethics: A dignified reconstruction that prioritizes the reality of the victims and their social context over sensationalism.
An activity designed for both True Crime enthusiasts and families and travelers.
