Full description
Get to grips with the Jewish history of Prague on this informative walking tour led by an expert guide. Walk through central Europe’s only existing Jewish town–the quarter that survived the Holocaust. See several important sites such as the Old Jewish Cemetery, Old-New synagogue, Maisel Synagogue, Spanish Synagogue, and Pinkas Synagogue. The tour begins with a stroll through the Old Jewish Cemetery. This was established in the first half of the 15th century, and its oldest tombstone dates back from 1439! Pay your respects at the grave of poet and scholar Avigdor Kara, and see the place-of-rest of the famous Liwa Ben Bazalel, also known as Rabbi Löw. Walk through Maiselova Street to reach the Old Town Square. The Old-New Synagogue was built in the early Gothic style around the middle of the 13th century. The main hall is the only existing Medieval type hall of its kind. This is an informative tour offering you a unique insight into the city’s history, with guide and entrance fees to the scheduled sites all-inclusive.

The tour was very well organized and very exciting. I was the only registered participant and the tour still took place. The guide was very competent and friendly. The whole tour took longer than planned because we also visited the Old-New Synagogue (you buy an additional ticket). I am very grateful to my guide for giving me her time to guide the Old-New Synagogue. In general she didn't check the clock and I found that very relaxing. I also recommend visiting the old mikvah at Pinkas Synagogue. The ticket for the mikvah costs only 50 crowns. You will get another competent guide and enough time for photos. I highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in this topic.

Pleasant, personable and very educational! The history of the Jews in Poland and especially in Warsaw should be a compulsory course for all travellers. Presented in particular by a tour guide who was able to answer even the most specific questions. Mrs. Swirska - Molenda is a highly qualified, German-speaking tour guide who imparts her knowledge in a nice and very personable way. An unforgettable experience.

We were lucky and there were only two of us on the tour. Our guide "Madame Jojo", our "Grandma from Prague", as she introduced herself, was really very nice. We visited everything except the old-new synagogue and after detailed information about Jewish history and the synagogues we were able to do our own tours before continuing. We only booked the tour at 10 p.m. the evening before and everything still worked out perfectly!
