An absolutely wonderful and informative tour! The guide was incredibly knowledgeable, offering deep insights into the history of Jews in Berlin and Germany, spanning all the way back to 1671. His passion for the history truly shone through, making the experience both educational and engaging. Being met and dropped off at the hotel was a thoughtful touch that added to the overall convenience. Highly recommended for anyone interested in delving into this important aspect of history

Excellent tour with history, openness and emotion

My husband and I very much appreciated Adi's personal experience as a Jewish person and an Israeli in Berlin, in addition to the sites and the history of the sites. What became most poignant after the tour, was the massacre in Israel by Hamas about two days later. I thought about Adi after this happened, and want to give her my best. Please let her know that Tim and I hold her in our hearts.

Highly recommend

Zvi was an amazing guide. Very passionate about the history of Berlin in general and of a Jewish history. It was a brilliant tour. Highly recommend.

Depth Over Breadth

Michael_L, Oct 2022
This tour was a great learning experience with respect to Jewish history in Berlin. Our guide, Nadav, is an Israeli-German, with the ideal background for this subject. On this tour, we visited fewer sights, but covered them in greater depth, as compared to other tours we took on this trip to Europe. Nadav supplemented the physical sites with historical materials contained in a notebook that he brought to share with us. Overall, the tour was very meaningful and moving.
