    Lovely insight with very nice helpful guides

    Denise_R, Dec 2025
    Lovely way to look at Recife in Olinda with longtime Jewish residents who know the history well. Very moving to explore Jewish neighborhoods and imagine their energy before everyone moved. Jager was the historian who spoke only Portuguese but his sister Roseane translated which worked out alright. They were amenable when we wanted to stop and look at other sights along the way. Really a pleasure to spend the day with them.

    Response from Host, Dec 2025

    Dear Denise, Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review. It was truly a pleasure to spend the day with you exploring Recife and Olinda through the lens of Jewish history. Sharing these stories and walking through the old Jewish neighborhoods is always very meaningful for us. Jader was happy to contribute with the historical context, and Roseane is glad the translation worked well for you. We’re also pleased you enjoyed the flexibility to stop and explore other sights along the way. Thank you again for the opportunity to share this experience — you were wonderful company, and we hope to welcome you again in the future!

    A perfect guide

    Victor is very, very knowledgeable, considerate and personable. He went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and were exposed to everything we wanted to see plus more. We were quite interested in seeing the synagogue and he explained its history in depth. We could not have been more pleased. Kudos to Victor. You are lucky to have him.

    Response from Host, Nov 2024

    Jane, thank you very much for your words. Guide Victor loves what he does and understands the history of the Jews in Recife very well. Thank you for choosing our agency. Shalom and see you next time. Adi Zegman
