My guide was extremely knowledgeable and obviously cared about the subject she was covering, though she spent a little too long getting into the details at times. I did appreciate that this tour went far deeper into Jewish history and culture than the previous tour I took. The sites selected for the tour were perfect: all beautiful, significant, and well worth visiting. The walk was easy and pleasant.

The tour was excellent. Our tour guide (I can't recall his name; he's from Mexico) was very knowledgeable and has an academic background in history. This showed in his passion for the subject and his respect for Jewish history. Our group was very small (our family of 3 plus one other person), so the tour was a great value. I appreciated that the cost of the museums/synagogues was included in the tour price. Would definitely recommend for an English-speaking tour.

Very thorough and concise tour.

Michaela (Meisha) was an excellent tour guide. She was extremely knowledgeable and gave us lots of information above and beyond the tour requirements itself. Although this is a small area it was important to have a guide to give you all the details you might otherwise not have known. Highly recommended.
