I took the half-day tour, which stayed in or very close to the Dohany Street Synagogue, the main point of Jewish interest in Budapest. Our guide was a young man named Benjamin, who spoke flawless English and gave a polished, soulful, knowledgeable, well-paced presentation. All levels of Judaic knowledge were accommodated gracefully. I recommend this tour highly.

This was a fantastic tour. The synagogue was beautiful. Benjamin was very knowledgeable and gave lots of information in a very interesting and informative way and answered all our questions in a thorough way. He really knows his history and went into great detail in the Jewish museum explaining the significance of the displays to Jewish life. This is an excellent tour.
