On this 1.5-hour tour you will have the opportunity to learn about the history of Barcelona’s Jewish community and uncover a part of its past: What was life like for the Jewish community in Barcelona? When did they settle in the city? What became of them?

Very knowledgeable person gave full history of the area. Took into account age and ability of the group and gaged her pace accordingly

First Roger went to wrong hotel. Second he had us walk to Jewish Quarter rather than take included transportation ( my wife uses a walker).
Then his knowledge seemed minimal.
I do not recommend this tour.

Nicest, most lovely guide ever but not enough of a Jewish imprint to warrant this tour. Or, the price should have been 1/2 what it was as it was barely 90 minutes and only went to one place of significance.Not fault of guide but there is just not enough to see to warrant a tour.

This was extremely disappointing and we found the guide uninformed and antisemitic.
I don’t think it is fair to offer this tour unless you have a more sensitive and knowledgeable guide. For what it was it was vastly overpriced

Guide was very nice but really didn’t seem that knowledgeable about the tours subject matter.
She seemed a bit unfamiliar with the Jewish quarter layout, etc

Roger was very good with the history, but he was 10 minutes late getting us and was going to leave us at the old synagogue. When we told him we had no idea where we were and how to get back to the hotel, he took us to a square and said “your hotel is right over there.” We wondered around for half an hour before we found our way back. Turned out he was correct. We turned the wrong direction. He should have been more sensitive to our expressing that we were not oriented. I don’t care where the tour is scheduled to end. You don’t leave too old people who are disoriented on a very hot day. We were so close to the hotel. He could have taken the 5 minutes to walk us back. Since he was late, he really owed us the time!

Excellent Guide. Daniel made the tour memorable for my wife and me. We loved his personal stories and how he related these stories to the historic Jewish Community. He was so patient and careful with us as we climbed the stairs and maneuvered around the winding streets. Very impressive tour and very impressive guide, In our 50 years plus travels in Europe and Asia. thjs tour ranks in the top of the list. It helped make the historic Jewish section as well as the city of Lisbon come alive in so many ways. We wish Daniel could lead tours for us in other cities and in other major attractions.

Knowledgeable and very friendly tour guide but not as much substance on the purpose of the tour as we had expected for the topic

Disappointing. No real context to how Jews fit inside of Spain’s recent history just the Inquisition. And our guide was rushed from the beginning to get to another tour. He had no pictures or graphs. His English was fair so understanding terms was hard. He only listened to me and missed a lot of what my husband asked. He also didn’t connect obvious Hebrew connections to terms as he didn’t know

Hugo was an excellent guide for our tour of the Jewish Quarter - he was very knowledgeable and easy going.
