Know before you go
The first part of the tour is a mixture of walking and transport by a small van with a driver to maximize the sites you will see in the most efficient way possible - without stressing the body too much. After lunch, continue on foot throughout the Jewish Quarter.
The tour guide's vehicle can accommodate a maximum of 4 people. However, if there are more than 4 people, please inform your tour guide in advance so that a minivan can be hired.
The Jewish Quarter Tour is the guide's most popular tour. You'll see 4 well-preserved synagogues, including the oldest anywhere north of the Alps; also a moving tribute to Czechoslovakia's lost Jewish population in the Pinkas Synagogue. You'll also visit the Old Jewish Cemetery, where the graves lie up to twelve layers deep and where you'll find the resting place of Rabbi Loew, renowned as the creator of the Golem. Prague is home to the largest collection of Judaica in the world and there is no other country that has so many historical Jewish artefacts all in one place. This neighbourhood largely resembled an open-air Jewish heritage museum, almost frozen in time.
