Ana was great!! we learned so much about history!! Highly recommended!
Heidi was our tour guide and I loved her spunk and the way she delivered the information. This tour did not seem like 3 hours because she was so informative and interesting to listen to. The meeting spot was just as it read in the information, easy to find and well worth exploring the Jewish neighborhood and learning about WWII history!
A sobering reminder of atrocities committed by Hitler and the need to take a stand,even at great personal risk, against those who would harm others.
Loved this walking tour!!!
Cory was our guide. He kept us entertained with short anecdotes that brought the history alive. We saw and heard events and personal experiences that can never be found in any history textbook. Worth your time.
