    We did not think the tour...

    roger_l, Oct 2023
    We did not think the tour guide had either a deep feeling or knowledge ior Jewish culture in Vienna—the topic of our tour. We learned much more by ourselves in an hour on the fourth floor of the Leopold museum. The guide was well meaning and earnest (and amiable) but we didn’t think he was qualified to give that particular tour.

    We are terribly sorry to read this review. We're usually so proud of our Jewish Vienna tour and the normally marvelous reviews! We took a risk on a new member of our team and, unfortunately, we overestimated his knowledge of this important subject because of the depth of his knowledge on many other topics in Vienna. Sorry for what is a rare fail in vetting our experts appropriately. I would like to offer you free credit for you or your friends to use on any Insight Cities tour in future. I will write you directly. Our mission is to give people unforgettable educational travel experiences and we did not deliver here. So sorry. Best --Bonita at Insight Cities

    Outstanding experience - Highly recommend it

    Our guide was well prepared complete with photos and videos about the historical significance of the sites we viewed. Her perspectives and knowledge were invaluable to bring the history to life. We highly recommend her.

    Jewish Vienna , Early 13 th century history, Kristallnacht and the Holocaust, and now.

    Annalie certainly knew her Vienna Jewish history. She gave us a quick overview at the hotel and then we proceeded to the underground train, me on my scooter and my husband on foot. We visited an old Orthadox schul guarded by police, but did not enter. We learned history of early Jewish settlers in Vienna. I bounced along the cobblestone streets and hills finding out about these early settlers and their accomplishments and their wives who entertained dukes and other nobles. We also saw a moving WW2 monument in the shape of a b library with books shelves backwards to remember those who would have no life to recall and write about. We were led to a small shop for a warm drink and ended in a grand salon for a snack worthy of our learning that day.

    Thanks so much for the detailed review. Our Jewish heritage tours are very important to us, not only in Vienna, but also in Berlin, Prague and Budapest. Glad it met expectations. Have a great fall and travel safe!
