Itinerary
1
Trafalgar Square / Embankment
After meeting your guide at Embankment Station this private tour starts in the Embankment Area, and some famous Sherlock and Watson sites.
This section of the Tour you will see.
Great Scotland Yard
The Sherlock Holmes Pub
Holmes & Watsons Favourite Turkish Bath!
30 minutes
2
Strand
The Strand was a very fashionable and busy in Sherlock and Watson's time.
After cracking a case, Sherlock would often say "Come Watson, lets take nourishment at Simpsons in the Strand"
Simpsons was the favourite restaurant of Sherlock Holmes. This high end British restaurant was also a favourite of Charles Dickens, Winston Churchill and Prince Charles.
10 minutes
3
Saint Bartholomew's Hospital Museum
The oldest hospital in London founded in 1123. This was the place Sherlock and Watson met for the first time. The next day they took up lodgings at 221b Baker Street.
In the modern BBC show 'Sherlock' Watson watches on in horror as Sherlock plunges to his "death" after a rooftop conversation with Moriarty.
15 minutes
4
North Gower Street
221b Baker Street as featured in the BBC show starring Benedict Cumberbatch as Sherlock Holmes.
The real life Cafe called Speedy's that features in the show is usually open Mon-Friday, so perhaps you can grab a coffee just like Sherlock does here in the show!
15 minutes
5
Sherlock Holmes Museum
The traditional 221b Baker Street. Home of Sherlock and Watson in the stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
Here we can stop and have a look inside the Sherlock store, or pose for a photo outside this world famous address.
15 minutes
6
Whitechapel
After a short journey on the London Underground you will arrive in the East End of London for walking tour around the heart of Whitechapel, to discover the world of Jack the Ripper.
Your expert guide will share the history of the "East End" of London, and how this once very deprived area is now going through huge regeneration.
The tour of this area will cover key locations relating to the Jack The Ripper Murders, and will take you through a detailed account of the case and those involved.
1 hour
7
Spitalfields
Now a very trendy and creative area, Spitalfields in 1888 was a very different place. Even the Police feared going in after dark, and during the Autumn of 1888 Jack the Ripper chose this area as one of his main stalking grounds.
You will visit surviving buildings, murder sites and hear the witness testimonies from time.
Perhaps these details will help you form your own opinion on the worlds most famous unsolved crime?
30 minutes
8
Goulston Street
Jack the Ripper only left a small amount of physical clues behind. The most famous, and the most debated is the "Goulston Street Graffito"
A piece of bloodstained apron from Catherine Eddowes was found in a doorway on Goulston Street. Above it scrawled in Chalk on the wall was perhaps some of Jack the Rippers handwriting. Lets discuss the facts and you decide!
15 minutes
9
Mitre Passage
Just off Mitre Street is Mitre Square.
It was in this pitch black, cobbled square that Jack the Ripper managed to savagely kill and mutilate Catherine Eddowes. How he managed that in the darkness in less than 15 minutes still causes huge amounts of debate among Ripperologists.
