Great Tour! - We did the 4 hour tour and it was a very informative experience. The walking was in flat cobblestone streets common in Europe but was not taxing. We saw many sites in the Jewish Quarter and the synagogs were beautiful. Our guide was excellent.

History Came to Life! - Benjamin led our tour. He was amazing! He made history come alive. He was telling the stories as if they happened yesterday, and he was a personal witness. He was kind, open, and funny! I highly recommend.

Exceptional Leader - Benjamin was a exceptional leader for our group that was here from the states. His passion and zeal for the Jewish faith was such a refreshing part of our experience together. His historical expertise and his ability to communicate and also be extremely personable was an added bonus to our group. I highly recommend, asking for Benjamin for personal or a group tour! I wish I could give a 5 star plus ! He was a fabulous lead and excellent communicator!
