Then join us at the Tower of London that was built nearly a thousand years ago and is now home to the Crown Jewels protected by the famous Beefeaters. The imposing former palace was once used as a fortress and a prison and your guide will take you to see Traitors Gate where prisoners entered the Tower for the last time!

A short back and sides (1785 - style) could be just the thing to round of your visit...But will you get more than you bargained for? Keep your wits about you to make sure you dont become the next filling in Mrs. Lovetts famous pies!

1888, and the fear rises inside you as you enter Jack the Rippers Whitechapel. As you wander the stinking slums the true horror of his terrible crimes is reveled in bloody, graphic detail. And then a scream. the flash of a cloak and an evil smile as you come face to face with Jack the Ripper himself... will you survive?
