"Murder Mile Walks was absolutely fantastic. Wonderfully told by Michael, the best storyteller of some very famous and some very grisly murders. Added to this was the outstanding walk around Soho. This tour is a must for any 'real crime' fans. It's around two hours long but the time goes so quickly because it is so informative. If you book no other tour, you should book this one" - Jutta G ***** Five Stars (TripAdvisor)
"Step by step we walked with Mike as he meticulously dissected each murder that had left the world under such heinous, gruesome circumstances. Mike reeled of the facts of the murder cases, painstakingly put together, done the old fashioned sleuth way, retracing archived info buried in public records and cast his forensic black light on us as we gathered round him like a macabre scene from "CSI Soho", as we were hanging onto every word, captivated and entertained. Mike wasted no time, "less walking, more murders" as he kept us laughing with dark humour. Minutes merged into hours in a blink of an eye. It dawned on us that this might be the last scream and we had bloody enjoyed it. Murder in the First.....footsteps till the very last fall. Damn you Mike! we gonna have to come back for more :-)" - Hazik P ***** Five Stars (TripAdvisor)
"Would recommend this tour to anyone interested in true crime or London's history. The tour guide has expertly researched the subject. You really can tell that what is presented touring the tour is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the knowledge Mike has about Soho area murders. Mike is really entertaining as well. Loved that the tour group is kept small (max 15 persons). 2 hours went by really quickly" - Karin K ***** Five Stars (TripAdvisor)
"This is an outstanding walk around Soho with Michael the tour guide. He is very knowledgeable about the historic murders and in doing so relates the experience of London at the time of each murder in a unique and engaging way. If you are looking for a walking tour around in London then I can highly recommend this tour. It is value for money and the two hours it takes to take the tour goes very quickly." - Jack H ***** Five Stars (TripAdvisor)
"Fantastic alternative 50th birthday gift from my daughter who knows I am fascinated by true crime stories. Michael was a fantastic host and brought history to life with his passionate storytelling. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience" - Helen R ***** Five Stars (Facebook)
"I had such a great time on today's walk! I've never done anything like this before but I found it both interesting and entertaining. Whilst the stories were grim in places (and passers by just as frightening!!), Michael was a great host who brought history to life in a fun manner. Would recommend to anyone who is looking to do something out of the ordinary in London! Thank you for a fab morning" - Katrina N ***** Five Stars (Facebook)
"This guy is awesome! Great tour, highly recommended for true crime fans!" - Maria AS ***** Five Stars (Facebook)
"The tour was fantastic. I would recommend this to anyone who has ever listened to a true crime podcast or has an interest in the macabre - and anyone who hasn't! Mike was an amazing guide - he clearly enjoys taking the tours and has done all the research for it himself - going right back to the original documents. It's fascinating, a bit gruesome and really entertaining. I loved hearing about some of the more 'obscure' crimes that took place, and some of the tragic stories of the victims. The time flew past, and it's all within a compact walking area. Mike is really considerate of his tours too - making sure that he's going at the right pace, answering all the questions, and generally entertaining everyone! He is really interesting to listen to as well, with lots of background information on the cases, and some others. I'm really looking forward to his podcasts starting, check out the website for more information about them, It was brilliant - I definitely recommend it!" - Jane ***** Five Stars (TripAdvisor)
"I was so happy that I decided to do this while in London. If you are interested in murder and serial killers, this is definitely your cup of tea. Mike was energetic, entertaining, interesting, and so informative. I enjoyed every minute of it. Highly recommended!" - Sadie ***** Five Stars (TripAdvisor)
"This tour was very entertaining and Mike was really knowledgeable about all the crimes mentioned, he knew the answer to every additional question asked! The way the stories were interwoven instead of all at once was engaging and I enjoyed getting to look around Soho which I might not have done on my visit otherwise. The price was also very reasonable, I highly recommend the tour." - Izzy D ***** Five Stars (TripAdvisor)

"I suggest visiting anyone who ever dreamed of private investigator or detective career! The walk is exciting and you will have an opportunity to try your deduction skills! To be honest, my walks through Soho will never be the same as before, when I see the "crime scenes" from this tour it's impossible not to think about some criminal secrets))) Thank you for great experience!" - Elwigkeit ***** Five Stars (TripAdvisor)
"Great impressions from a happy customer! I visited the walk in July and still have great memories of that day!

Well-known places now have the new atmosphere!" - Tatiana ***** Five Stars (Google)

"As true-crime fans, who love Jack the Ripper, British serial killers, detective stories and true-crime podcasts (like My Favorite Murder, Casefile, They Walk Among Us, Serial and S-Town), this was the perfect thing for us to do in London; it's fast, funny, dark, scary and gripping. We loved it! It's a must for true-crime fans" - Angelo ***** Five Stars (FaceBook)
"We had a wonderful Sunday morning shuffling around Soho to learn about a variety of gruesome murders that have taken place over a number of years. Michael was funny, just the right amount of gruesome and very well-informed; he had clearly researched thoroughly and as a result was able to answer questions confidently. The pace of the tour was very easy and the details interesting and concise. If you're looking for something different to do in London, this is good value and not for the faint hearted! I'd highly recommend - much better than your average walking tour I'm sure!". Alice H ***** Five Stars (Google)

Tour guide Michael is a captivating story teller and his attention to detail is impressive. He's clearly passionate about what he does and that shines through.

Enthusiastically recommended" - Alexandra - ***** Five Stars (Time Out)

"Had a great time. The host was very good, well rehearsed, informative and fun. The detail and content was brilliant. It's the best £10 you will spend in London. It's a must see" - via TripAdvisor
"This is an expertly researched tour that is both fascinating and disturbing in equal measure. You may have walked past these buildings many times, yet had no idea of the grizzly tales that took place in places. It is darkly witty in places, yet always respectful of the more tragic cases. It rips Jack the Ripper tours a new one." - A Love
"An excellent tour... who knew Soho had such a morbid history" - V Eck
"A fantastic day. I walked the excellent 'Murder Mile' on my crutches. Who knew Soho was so murderous! - P Chambers
"A great grisly morning of murder, mirth and mischief" - S Fletcher
"Excellent fun, well written, researched and performed. A brilliant way to spend a Sunday morning in London's West End... when nothing is open" - A Jeffries
"Most tours you get five killers at best, here we got eighteen, inc three serial killers in one mile. I don't think I'm going to walk alone again. :=) Great fun. Tim.x - T Brass
"We had a great time. My brains are still digesting the info. It was fun, informative, grisly and mind boggling" - S Leaf
"A killer walk...a walk on the dark side... no spoilers here but there are a few cliffhangers and a couple of threads re-emerge to thrill and astound in equal measure. So dark its black and a taste for the macabre is a must. That said, the mood is light at just the right moments to keep the experience fizzing along. The walking is easy, the distances short so suitable for all who can get around... er... its not for children though...it is quite graphic and covers some of the details in full ....leaving nothing to the imagination. A Jack the Ripper walk it is not, this walk is unerringly real and covers many cases that are within living memory. If you into crime and murder do it, you will not regret it." - P Johnson ***** Five Stars
"Absolutely fantastic and well worth doing if you are looking for something a bit different in London. The tour was really fascinating and covered loads of different gruesome murders but what really made it was the tour guide, Michael, who was just brilliant - really friendly and entertaining! Thank you very much for a great tour. Would definitely recommend." - ***** Five Stars
