This tour, and Stephanie in particular, far exceeded our expectations. Her knowledge and sense of humor was a highlight of our trip to Paris. Fantastique!

We learned so much from Boris during the 2 hours we spent with him (which flew by). He was an extremely well-qualified guide who was able to explain how significant eras and events in history (beginning with the Agricultural Revolution!) paved the way for subsequent developments, including the tragedy of the Holocaust. Boris is a true scholar and it was a privilege to listen to his extremely well-informed, thoughtful and insightful presentation of the history of the Jews in Paris. He was able to put this history into a broad context that made even the most horrific events more understandable. Bravo Boris!

Our trip through the Jewish section in Marais was amazing - the experience difficult to put into words. The Jewish presence in Paris is so ancient and rich, and our guide, Anja, made it come to life through her extensive knowledge as well as personal stories of her family. She was delightful to be with and so knowledgeable about the Jewish experience and culture during and after the war. The trip to the Holocaust Memorial was very powerful as was the wall with the names of the righteous...we learned so much on this tour thanks to Anja , and recommend it without reservation.
