Full description
Get to grips with the Jewish history of Prague on this informative walking tour led by an expert guide. Walk through central Europe’s only existing Jewish town–the quarter that survived the Holocaust. See several important sites such as the Old Jewish Cemetery, Old-New synagogue, Maisel Synagogue, Spanish Synagogue, and Pinkas Synagogue. The tour begins with a stroll through the Old Jewish Cemetery. This was established in the first half of the 15th century, and its oldest tombstone dates back from 1439! Pay your respects at the grave of poet and scholar Avigdor Kara, and see the place-of-rest of the famous Liwa Ben Bazalel, also known as Rabbi Löw. Walk through Maiselova Street to reach the Old Town Square. The Old-New Synagogue was built in the early Gothic style around the middle of the 13th century. The main hall is the only existing Medieval type hall of its kind. This is an informative tour offering you a unique insight into the city’s history, with guide and entrance fees to the scheduled sites all-inclusive.

Die Tour war sehr gut organisiert und sehr spannend. Ich war der einzige angemeldete Teilnehmer und die Tour hat trotzdem statt gefunden. Die Guide war sehr kompetent und freundlich. Die ganze Führung hat länger als geplant gedauert, da wir auch die Altneu-Synagoge besucht haben (man kauft dazu einen zusätzlichen ticket). Meiner Guide bin ich sehr dankbar dafür, dass sie mir für die Führung der Altneu Synagoge ihre Zeit geschenkt hat. In allgemeinen hat sie nicht auf die Uhr geschaut und ich fand das sehr entspannt. Ich empfehle auch, die alte Mikwe bei der Pinkas Synagoge zu besuchen. Der Ticket für die Mikwe kostet nur 50 Kronen. Ihr bekommt dafür eine andere kompetente Führung und genug Zeit auch für Fotos. Ich kann diese Tour allen, die sich für dieses Thema interessieren, sehr empfehlen.

Perdi muito tempo esperando pelo inicio tour. Não havia um guia nos aguardando. Inclusive solicitei no idioma italiano e me disseram que não tinham guia neste idioma Fiz o tour com um fone de ouvido em espanhol. Uma funcionária da agencia, muito gentil e preocupada com a situação, me acompanhou.

Ho prenotato questa visita guidata perché ci tenevo molto a conoscere la storia di uno dei quartieri ebraici più importanti. La nostra guida locale, sig.ra Iva, oltre a conoscere molto bene l’italiano, si è rivelata molto preparata e molto disponibile a rispondere a tutti i nostri quesiti. Tour consigliato
