Ben was extremely knowledgeable, welcoming and sharing his personal family experiences. He had an amazing grasp of history of the region as well as the Jewish community enabling the group to feel life firsthand through his words.

I did not find that this tour added much to my knowledge of Jewish heritage in Budapest. We spent too much time in the museum attached to the synagogue. I enjoyed visiting the synagogue and its grounds, but could have done that without a guide. That said, our guide, Dora, was very good.

Firstly our tour would not have been the same without our guide Abel. He was wonderful!
Not only was he very knowledgeable and extremely thorough about the details of what we were seeing, you could tell that he was deeply moved and saddened by what he was telling us. Secondly he shared so much information in such a short time but he explained everything very clearly and you walked away with a good understanding of the history of the Jews in Budapest, the horrific treatment of the Jews in Hungary, and the scary times we are living in now. It was a deeply moving tour and experience.

Benjamin was great. He displayed a vast amount of knowledge of Hungarian Jewish history and was able to give it over in a way that kept everyone entertained. Benjamin also switched up the itinerary on the spot, so we could do things we were more interested in.

The tour guide, Benjamin, was very knowledgeable and informative. We were really brought back to what the people experienced before and during world war 2.
