“Our tour was lead by Martin Cheng, who fully immersed himself creating the atmospheric guide with excellent knowledge of the victims, suspects and the key players in the Ripper mystery. Whilst not over theatrical (thank God) he did dress up which I really liked in comparison to other guides and did make his presentation interesting and informative and inclusive to the group.”
