Prague Jewish Quarter - This was one of the best walking tours we’ve experienced. Peter was interesting and knowledgeable mixed with much humor during our 3 hours with him. I highly recommend this tour. I learned so much about the history of the Jewish community of Prague.

Hundreds of years of history in under 3 hours - Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and explained the Jewish history in a clear and concise way. It was a very busy day as schools had many class trips the sales day and we had to navigate hundreds of school kids. She always found us a spot in the shade as it was very hot. Highly recommend.

A great tour of the Jewish Quarter in Prague - Martina was great! We learned so much. Without the tour we probably would not get all the important information. Highly recommend!

Just okay - The tour guide was very good but the whole thing was very rushed, and I felt like I was getting more from the descriptions in the pieces in the synagogue. I would have liked to have gotten the tickets back at the end to go through at my own pace.

Not a great experience - I took this tour and what it basically comes down to is the tour guide. Our tour guide I never caught her name, red head, she really dropped the ball. She became judgemental and irrated with an older man and became very defensive. She talked too fast and never attempted to ensure that those on the tour had any specific needs (hearing issues for instance). This is my 4th tour and the worst one so far. Avoid this guide. It started downhill right from the beginning with the guy who was suppose to be organizing each group,
