I enjoyed this small group tour of the oldest synagogogues and the old Jewish cemetery of Prague. (I saw the more modern and also beautiful synangogue on Jerusalem Street by myself and would also highly recommend that - make sure you go upstairs to see the exhibition of life for the community after the war). The guide was very knowledgeable... More

We did the tour to terezin with Martina and the Jewish quarter with Vida. Both were excellent. We enjoyed the fact that there were small groups (4-6 people for us) as reservations seemed to be expected in advance. The tour guides provided a lot of intimate commentary and were extremely knowledgable. We would use them again More

We had a good tour guide in Pavel and he was very knowledgable. There was a stuff up with the booking so ensure that you book onlin early before you arrive. Meet with the meeting point outside the intercontinental hotel and don't be late or they will assume you done want a tour. More

We were three couples traveling together; due to the off season nature of our trip we made arrangements for two private tours: Terezin on one day and a combination of Golden Prague and the Jewish Quarter on the second day - and opted to upgrade our experience by requesting Sylvie Wittman as our tour guide. We had several email exchanges... More

My partner and I attended the Terezin tour with Vida and the Jewish Quarter tour with Martina K. These both were excellent excursions to see and learn about Prague and the Czech Republic through its long and complicated history. (Terezin is about 40 mins outside of Prague, and the tour last 5.5-6 hrs door to door.) I appreciated the extensive... More

Sylvie Wittmann conducted a tour of the Jewish Quarter in Prague for us. It was about a 3 1/2 hour tour. There were only four of us on the tour which is how we set it up. It was just an amazing experience. Sylvie's depth of knowledge and insight were amazing. She opened up the Jewish Quarter for us -... More

We took 2 tours with this company. We did the 1/2 day walking tour of the Jewish Quarter. Our guide was OK (not great) and he was a bit hard to understand if you have trouble with accents. We are not Jewish, so we didn't know the meaning behind some of things he was discussing or some of the terms... More

While his knowledge was impressive, his ability to keep his political insights about US issues, was not necessary. I had to remind him of the time and the fact that he was running long. A number of times he did not provide answers to questions or told us to wait and he would cove the subject later. He told me... More

I would highly recommend Wittman's tour of the Jewish Quarter. Our tour guide was entertaining, informative, and I learned so, so much. I simply would not have had the same experience touring the Jewish Quarter without our wonderful guide from Wittman. They will make the Jewish Quarter come alive. More

I suppose that tourists come in all varieties. Some are interested in a superficial overview, but some want detail. And while some have limited knowledge of the topics, others have a deep understanding. Thus, the guides need to be able to adapt and n this score, Wittman is fantastic. Our guide was able to answer the easiest and the hardest... More
