3.00Doesn’t include the most significant graves that I would have liked to see…maybe include a more detailed description of which are part of each tour so guests can choose the one for them.
A real maze

3.00The information for moving around the cemetery is not clear enough. We've lost our way many times
Poorly done

2.00Very superficial tour with boring jokes and strange choices of visited graves - lots of important ones are skipped. Also not included in this tour is a whole section of very moving memorials to victims of holocaust. I think it’s better look up the list of graves ahead of time and make a plan how to walk to them- all available on line.
Interesting audio tour

5.00Really well guided (using GPS) so we were able to take little hidden paths which we would never have found otherwise. Really interesting commentary. Have never done a tour like this and would thoroughly recommend!
Interesting walk

3.00Interesting tour and facts but better directions and slower when giving multiple directions would be useful.
