Prague Jewish Quarter Private Tour - 3hours

Lenka was a great guide. We booked a private tour as it was the only way the timing worked to be sure we could see the neighborhood and interiors during our trip to Prague. She was well informed of the history and provided plenty of time to walk around on our own at each stop.

We had some Uber issues and arrived a bit late, so to start, she wasn’t very welcoming (which I understood). About five minutes into the walk, I texted my husband to let him know we could leave early if he wanted. Her accent was very difficult to understand, she spoke way too fast, and she tended to spit while talking. On top of that, she smelled strongly of body odor and looked dirty. She was very knowledgeable about Jewish culture, is why she got 2 stars. She warmed up middle of the tour but I felt it was waste of time. I’d rather have gotten an audio tour.

Excellent knowledge and informative- guide was informative and guided us through the synagogues Highly recommended-

Our guide Lena was wonderful. Very informative and insightful. She answered our many questions thoughtfully and thoroughly. The pacing of the tour was excellent. My husband has knee issues and we walk a bit slowly and she was very accommodating to his needs.

Wonderful dialogue and explanations but difficult to understand at times. Felt rushed on occasion but was able to see everything as described.

Tour guide is vey knowledgable, clear on her ideas and her English is very good. She helped us learn and absorb plenty on the way the Jewish Community used to live in Prague. She dominates the topic very well. Out only feedback: she could had still connect better with us, ask more questions about our background and therefore, further extend on providing more valuable information. Also, the tour we paid for was for 3 hours which is way too much! The tour should had been shorter and at a lower price.

Lots of walking and standing, some up and down stairs, very informative, tour leader knowledgeable and easy to deal with

Highly recommend!! Lenka was wonderful! We had already taken a few walking tours which touched on the Jewish quarter and wondered if we'd get enough out of this (how many times can you hear about the golem?). We are so glad we kept this reservation. Lenka was friendly and super knowledgeable. Her English was perfect, so she was able to answer all our questions. Entry into the museums was separate but totally worth it. I could have chatted with Lenka all day, and we even joked we should have invited her to lunch (she recommended a great place!).

Our tour guide had limited knowledge of Jewish life in Prague and Jewish people. Yet she chose to quiz us - as Jews - on our own religious practice and made multiple offensive comments about synagogue customs and prayer...without realizing they were offensive. Overall a sad experience and not good value for money. We would have been much better served to buy the museum and synagogue tickets on our own and to listen to the audio recordings on the headsets. It's a great joy to read and listen to the stories there and go at your own pace.

This was a private tour of the Jewish quarter and we were very pleased with the guide, Lenka ?, and the pace and scope of the visit. Not everything was open due to renovations, but we saw everything that was and the guide, who was very expert in her knowledge of Jewish history in Prague, gave us enough time to see and feel the whole area. It is a niche tour in the sense that you have to have some interest in this area, but very worth it for those of us interested in history and specifically Jewish history in this area of Europe.

I found this tour profoundly depressing. While we saw what little is left of the Jewish Quarter in Prague, it is all historical relics. With one small exception, the remaining synagogues have been repurposed as museums, and the remaining Jewish Quarter no longer exists after it was “sanitized”. Basically the Nazis and the Communists succeeded in wiping out the Jewish Community in Prague and there were no indications on this tour that it has in any way been reborn. While there are a few buildings (and a cemetery remaining), there is no one home.

We purchased a ticket for 6 combined visits. However 3 visits only available. Furthermore avoid the Easter holiday much too crowded.

A great tour, very emotional at times but very very interesting. Our tour guide, Eva, was fantastic; her knowledge is exceptional and she was very accommodating to my mum’s needs of having to walk at her own pace. I have learnt so much from this tour, thank you, Eva!!

Guide never showed. Ive booked with viator several dozen times - this is the first time that a tour operator completely dropped the ball . We showed up 20 mins early at requested location (i have photo and video footage). I attempted to reach the local operator from t-10 mins from start to t+30 mins after scheduled start. I contacted Viator who also couldnt reach the local operator. we've requested a refund and was were very disappointed, a complete waste of our time.

This was a fabulous tour that was obviously heartbreaking, but had some positive aspects. Lenka, our guide was extremely knowledgeable and we learned so much from the tour. Each synagogue had many artifacts and pictures that made the history come to life, Lenka’s English was excellent. If you’re in Prague this tour, with this guide, is not to be missed.

This was a fabulous tour! Our guide, Lenka, was extremely knowledgeable and flexible. While this tour was obviously emotional and heartbreaking, there were aspects that were uplifting. We felt it was so important to bear witness and in doing so we learned so many things about our heritage.

Lenka was a wonderful guide. She was very knowledgeable about the history of the Jewish people in Prague. A tragic story, but one we all need to know about, and remember!

Lenka was very knowledgeable and brought the history of the Jewish quarter to life for us. We were very pleased and recommend this tour,

We cannot say enough about Lenke, our guide for the Jewish Quarters tour. Her knowledge and expertise in her craft is amongst the top that we have had. My wife and I couldn’t have had a better, or more meaningful experience. We highly recommend the tour and especially, Lenke.

Lenka was extremely knowledgeable about the Jewish quarter, the history of the synagogues we visited and the ritual practices of the congregations. She included bits of folklore related to the Golem. She highlighted significant tombstones in the cemetery. At the end of our tour, she even assisted us in getting transportation back to our hotel.

Great guide. Interesting tour. Meaningful, informative. Great Jewish history. Many sights in a small area.

Very comprehensive tour and the guide was very knowledgeable. The only reason it's not a 5 star review is that we feel with what we paid for the tour, the cost of the museums should have been included in the tour fee.

An excellent top quality tour by a knowledgeable, thoughtful and kind guide. Linka made this day in Prague memorable . The Maisel synagogue, the Spanish synagogue were particularly interesting.

Eva was our guide & extremely knowledgeable about the Jewish History in Prague. It’s an easy walk because the Jewish qtr was do contained. Being inside the synagogues & cemetery was an awesome experience. Highly recommend !!!

Our guide was knowledgeable and able to share this knowledge with us. She was kind and forthcoming. Enjoyed seeing all aspects of the Jewish Quarter.

Lenka was a great guide for Prague’s Jewish Quarter. She was very knowledgeable about the area and the history of the Jewish people from when they arrived in the area until the present. She was easy to be with and kept us interested throughout the tour. We would recommend her highly.

Lenka our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable. We learned facts about Jewish history in Europe that were unaware of. This tour was very educational as well as emotional. I would highly recommend this tour.

Our guide was amazing! A local who is a second generation guide and owns her business with her mom, was warm, inviting, open and curious and always able to answer our questions and have discussions. A Jewish studies major, she led a wonderful tour providing lots of historical and personal context for what we were seeing.

Our guide was very knowledgeable. It was very intriguing to see the diffferent synagogues and the cemetery. Loved the little stores. Felt like a mini shuk.

Eva was an incredible knowledgeable guide. We really got to experience the Jewish quarter through her eyes and knowledge as a historian and passionate educator. Highly recommend her.

Extremely moving and educational. The Jewish quarter has been been well documented and preserved. We did a private tour highly recommend

Lenka was very knowledgeable and explained the plight of the Jews in details we had not heard before. She was a delight. The area contains significant artifacts and gives one a much greater sense of the long suffering of the Jewish community.

Our guide was interested and interesting as she showed us so many valuable sights and history. We appreciated her knowledge. Thank you

Thorough presentation of history of Jewish life in Prague presented along with explanations of Jewish life and their relationship with non Jews through the millenia

Eva explained really well and it was a highlight for our tour to Prague. We especially felt humbled by the memorial to those Jews that were lost skiing the holocaust. The Spanish synagogue was very impressive to see.

While my family very much appreciated the detailed tour of the Prague's historic Jewish Quarter, and we learned a great deal through the many exhibits along the route, we were very disappointed in our guide. In a number of instances she lacked familiarity with basic Jewish practices and also lacked awareness of antisemitic tropes resulting in unfortunate, insensitive comments. She seemed to be determined to stay on a script, without any curiosity to engage in conversation when we aimed to share our family's experiences or tried to correct a few inaccuracies related to Jewish customs. Our tour would have been more meaningful if our guide had a better understanding of Jewish practices, was more sensitive to the impact of xenophobia and antisemitism, and engaged more with those of us on the the tour.

Eva was so knowledgeable about Jewish history, customs and religion, and truly enjoys enlightening others. We are jewish and learned so much from her. Highly recommend this tour.

The tour covers about 5 buildings in a small area as most of the Jewish ghetto was destroyed years ago. The tour could have been done in only 90 min to 2 hours instead of 3 hours. We saw mostly museums with nicely preserved artifacts, and two synagogues. The cemetery was impressive. Our tour guide Eva was nice but dry in her delivery. Would suggest incorporating the Jewish into an all-inclusive tour of Prague.

Anna, our guide was knowledgeable and friendly. Very thorough tour of all 4 synogogues, the old cemetery, and museums.

This was an amazing tour! I study history, but my tour guide blew me away with her knowledge about Jewish history in Prague. She was incredibly nice, my age, and very smart. I was worried how a tour this specific could keep my interest for over 3 hours, but I was so sad when it ended because I was enthralled by her knowledge and teaching/tour style. I would definitely recommend this private tour.

Lenka was a very nice guide. We had a pleasant time. Worth a guiding hand to walk through this history.

I went on this tour with myself and my partner. We were glad we paid extra for a private tour because we would of missed so much information if we just got admission. It was easy to organize at the front desk and we really enjoyed our tour guide Dana! She answered all of our questions and showed so much passion and emotion in the tour. Must do when in Prague!

We were advised by a friend to see the Jewish Quarter of Prague with Lenka, who has studied the topic extensively and presented information with great depth, always having excellent answers to the questions we asked. Frankly, while we usually explore cities on our own, I can't imagine having gone through this area without a guide. The complexity of the site, the connections among all the different places, and the historical context are all crucial to even a simple understanding of what the visitor sees. Lenka's fluent English, professional attitude, depth of knowledge, and prompt responses to all email exchanges made this trip a pleasure.

Hana was a wonderful guide. She told us the story of the Jewish Quarter in Prague. It was moving and affecting. I am So glad we did this. I wouldn’t have wanted to miss this important part of history.

I had read reviews about Lenka Dorakova on TripAdvisor and was persuaded I should try to arrange a tour with her during out stay in Prague. Best decision I've made in a while! Lenka kindly arranged her schedule to accommodate ours, met us promptly and provided an unforgettable experience in the Jewish Quarter in Prague! Lenka is certified (all guides in Prague are not) and, therefore, has both the knowledge and access to provide an in-depth tour of all relevant sites in the Jewish Quarter. Lenka is a fount of information, but she also builds in time for her clients to explore at their own pace, take photographs, and process what they are experiencing. The tour was worth every penny and I highly recommend visitors to Prague have this experience and, if you are fortunate enough to have Lenka as a guide, you will be more than satisfied!

Our trip to Prague started off as a disaster. Direct flight from Newark to Prague cancelled, rerouted through JFK next day, through Munich then Prague, flight delayed to Munich delayed finally got onto Prague day late and two hours again delayed. I mention this because Supreme Prague, Ms.Lenka Dvorakova, was with us all the way. Our tour on Thursday was cancelled, Lenka moved us to Friday. We were delayed on Friday, Lenka met us at our hotel. Between Lenka, Viator, and Gate 1, our tour operator, our vacation was saved. Lenka was great, She showed us all the important sites of Prague on our way to the Jewish Quarter, and then was amazing with her knowledge of the synagogues and history of the Jewish Quarter and Jewish people of the Czech Republic. My wife and I were exhausted from our travels, but Lenka kept us involved and excited about this tour. I highly recommend Supreme Prague and especially Lenka Dvorakova. We thank them immensely..

Bara went above and beyond during the tour she gave us of the Jewish Quarter. She was so knowledgeable and so accommodating during the tour. Our son is spending the semester in Prague for NYU and had a ton of questions that Bara was able to answer. She really went out of her way to give us suggestions on other sites to see, restaurants and shopping. Overall, we learned a ton of information about Prague and it's rich history and culture. Thank you Bara!!!!

We didn't know this section of the city existed. Some historical scars are not promoted. Our tour guide was knowledgable and fairly familiar with area. Spent too much time getting there. Left wanting to learn more about the history of what hqppened.

This tour was spectacular. Our guide Klara was great - very well informed, very fluent in English, completing graduate studies in Jewish history, very accommodating, spent extra time with us, and provided us with a TON of interesting historical context, stories, facts, markers, etc. We could never have gotten this amount of knowledge or insight from either doing a tour on our own or with a less knowledgeable guide. A great value and a highlight of our trip. Highly recommend.
