The tour was highly educational, and I gained a lot of knowledge. Our guide Olga provided clear and engaging explanations of the different sections of the Jewish Museum, which are located in several synagogues. Without her, we would have missed many important details. I am very grateful to Olga. However, the beginning of the tour was very disappointing. We were directed by a very stressed and overwhelmed woman to a corner of a building where people were waiting for a completely different tour. Meanwhile, the rest of our group was waiting somewhere else, and we didn’t know about it. Even when we asked for help, no one showed us the correct group. Only because we insisted did we manage to find Olga and the other participants ourselves. This issue needs urgent improvement—it was chaotic, and the way we were treated was unfriendly. I found that very unfortunate.

Peetr proved to be an exceptional guide—highly knowledgeable, articulate, and full of humor, which made the tour truly memorable. Despite it being only 2½ hours long, I learned an impressive amount from him. I wish he offered standalone sessions focused solely on the Jewish presence in Prague, past and present—he’s a treasure trove of stories, traditions, and culture. The only downside was that the route didn’t include as many sites as I would have liked, which is why I gave it four stars instead of five.

Our guide, Peter, was outstanding—well-informed, enthusiastic, and professional. That said, the tour’s structure involved a lot of standing, talking, waiting, bathroom breaks, and enjoying (very tasty) pastries, which left less time to truly experience the museum, the synagogues, and the memorial. For instance, during a two-hour tour, the lengthy coffee and restroom break felt unnecessary, especially since we only had about ten minutes to hurriedly see the Memorial. Additionally, be prepared for fairly large groups; ours had 21 people. Peter worked hard to keep everyone together and on schedule, but a smaller group might have been easier to manage. Beyond the guide’s control, there were at least a dozen other tour groups on site simultaneously, causing some crowding and noise from other guides. I suspect I would have gained more by spending two hours on my own with the exhibits, all of which have English descriptions.
