What To Expect
Maisel Synagogue
The Maisel Synagogue is a neo-Gothic synagogue in Prague, dating from 1590-1592 and rebuilt in 1893-1905. Located in the city's former Jewish ghetto, Josefov, it houses the first part of an exhibition devoted to the history of Jews in Bohemia and Moravia (early settlement, early emancipation).

Mikaela and avantgarde Prague

5.00An exceptional experience with Avant-Garde Prague! The tours are perfectly organized, combining culture, unusual anecdotes and moments of relaxation. Mikaela, our French-speaking guide, truly enhanced the discovery: passionate, erudite and always smiling, she knows how to make every place lively and captivating. Thanks to it, we were able to understand Prague beyond monuments — its history, its soul and its little hidden wonders. I would definitely recommend Avant-Garde Prague and Mikaela to anyone who wants to explore the city differently and keep an unforgettable memory! The icing on the cake, there were only two or four of us for visits.
Guided tour of the Jewish quarter in Prague

3.00Our visit to the Jewish quarter in Prague was planned for 3 hours 15 minutes on the site. We chose this organizer Avantgarde Prague for this. However, after 2h15, the visit was over!!!! We were surprised and disappointed!! We felt like we had been scammed!! Going for a drink together at the end is pointless for us. We would have preferred that the visit respected the planned duration. On the other hand there were so many people everywhere on the sites of the Jewish quarter that it was really very difficult to see everything well and also to take photos.
A very enlightning tour
