C
Corey – United States

Benjamin was excellent -- super knowledgeable, funny and very informative. The pace of the tour was good, the places visited painted a good picture of the lost Jewish life of Budapest/Hungary as well as its persistence and rebuilding of today. Would definitely recommend the tour and Benjamin.

J
Janet – United Kingdom

We (Uk non religious family with teenager) absolutely loved our tour with Benjamin. it is not the first Jewish focus tour we have done in a Southern European city but definitely the best one! The 4h are so worth it and time flew by. Benjamin gave great overviews and insights into national and international Jewish topics and it was absolutely fascinating despite the seriousness of the topics at times. Visiting 2 synagoges was amazing and we really enjoyed coffee and cake in the cafe as well as the company of our fellow visitors. would definitely do it again!
