5.00It was great to see the remnants of what once a thriving Jewish community. Our tour guide, Jon, was personable, very well prepared, and friendly. Please note that while this tour was not described as a walking tour it was. Lots of hilly narrow streets. If you have a mobility issue this tour is not for you.
Lovely morning

2.00First 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.
Not Jewish enough!

3.00Nicest, 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.
Not to be recommended

1.00This 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...

3.00Guide 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
Way overpriced!

2.00Roger 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 Tour Making the both Jewish area of Lisbon and the City of Lisbon come alive. One of best tours ever.

5.00Excellent 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.
