Full description
Learn the history of the Jewish communities in Prague, and visit several famous synagogues on a 3-hour walking tour.

It was a wonderful experience where we were immersed into the fascinating history of the Jews in Prague and in Europe in general by our guide, who was immensely knowledgeable and catered to all our questions and whims! I would recommend this to anyone who has the slightest interest in history and culture.

After some confusion about our booking when we arrived at the meeting area, everything was great. Our guide was the son of a couple that actually met in a concentration camp, survived and were married after the war. He was extremely knowledgeable and our small group of seven made it easy to hear him and ask questions.

This tour is deeply moving. Our guide (Valentina) sensitively took us through each of the synagogues and the other relevant sites, leaving us time to take in, at one moment the beauty, at another the enormity, of the encounter on each occasion. We were constantly aware of the importance of this story, yet left with time to understand, assimilate and integrate each and every encounter. The personal attention helped to appreciate the detail of this tour. Two of us can highly recommend this tour.
