Reviews from Berlin institutions

"The big stories but also the subtle and unexpected ones that make walking tours so fun."
Anne Frank Center Berlin

"Highly Recommended"
Moses Mendelssohn Center for European Jewish Studies

"Led by individuals with close connections to Berlin´s Jewish community, these tours of Jewish Berlin´s past and present are warm and insightful. I give them my highest recommendations."
Rabbi Yitzak Ehrenberg, Chief Rabbi of Berlin

“I liked the way the guide had us from the very start focused on the crucial sights of Berlin’s past under Nazi dictatorship. I very much enjoyed the lively and interactive nature of the tour – who’d of thought we’d end up discussing Hitler’s love life! This tour gives you the chance to ask questions about the city’s disturbing past you’ve always wanted an answer to and benefit from the guide’s outstanding knowledge of German History – he’s never short of a clever answer, a good story or a personal statement.”
