    Philip was and is an amazing guide. Very informative, enthusiastic and detailed in his delivery. Learned more about the history and background to the jewish community than ever before. Took us into a jewish synagogue and explained their rituals, took to jewish grave yard, showed us the wall made of destroyed graves and their very own whaling stone!

    The Jewish quarter in Krakow is such an important historical landmark. While very somber, it's a beautiful neighborhood that highlights various important aspects of WWII history. Our guide was so knowledgeable and as a private tour I felt like we really got to see a lot of that area of Krakow.

    Diese Führung ist ein Muss für alle Krakau Besucher! Anneke hat so ein unglaubliches Wissen, hat so viele Geschichten erzählt, die uns das jüdische Leben nahe gebracht haben und alles war so kurzweilig und lebendig! Und vor allem hat sie es geschafft, die Brücke in die Gegenwart zu schlagen, in die Zeit heute und sie hat uns mit ihrem Appell zu Solidarität und Toleranz in dieser schwierigen Zeit sehr berührt! Vielen lieben Dank!
