A wonderful experience for history lovers

Sarit_A, May 2022
André, the guide tour, was extremely engaging and knowledgeable. I myself am a history lover and was curious to learn more about the Jewish history of the city. It was wonderful to walk around the old streets, and seeing them in a different once I heard their stories. André had an answer to all of my questions and also was kind enough to provide tips for nice places to eat, more things to see in the city etc. I highly recommend this tour, and thank you André.
