Special Jewish Ghetto Tour - Angela was amazing and so knowledgeable. She made thousands of years of history make so much sense in such a short amount of time. I enjoyed that our group was small so we were really able to interact and see so much. Highly recommend taking this tour! Also her restaurant recommendations were A+!

History and culture in this tour - Maria was an amazing guide. She not only showed us the historic Jewish Ghetto, but also have a brief history of the 22 centuries leading up to the "final solution" that the Fascists participated in. We chose a small group tour because of past experiences with larger groups and got extremely lucky when no one else showed up. We were able to have great discussions comparing and contrasting modern times with the past. We highly recommend Maria.

Paul was a wonderful tour... - Paul was a wonderful tour guide. He had both the adults and kids engaged and interested. We saw and learned about the history behind the Jewish ghetto, Jews in Italy and the political movements. Our 8 and 9 year olds were fascinated and he made it age appropriate. Ending the tour in delicious kosher gelato was so great! Highly recommend this tour and Paul.

The Ghetto - Great place for a morning walk and to have breakfast or lunch. I recommend Barghetto, It's close to the Jewish Temple and Trastevere.

Walking in the Jewish Ghetto - The Jewish ghetto, visiting it is something fantastic, the synagogue that you can visit at a modest price, you can learn all their culture from the origins, for all the past eras, you can admire the museum inside, and you can even buy gadgets. Even walking in the ghetto, and even having lunch, you acquire new culinary arts. I highly recommend it to everyone

Disgraceful - I waited at the place to meet the guide 45 minutes. I walked the entire area there was no guide. I spent $30 for taxis to get there and back I am so angry. Please refund my $98 for 2 people
