The tour and our guide, Roza Jedrzejko, were amazing. It was the highlight of my trip to Portugal. Roza was extremely knowledgeable and very flexible in making everything work. She went above and beyond both in terms of transportation, scheduling and the tour itself. It include not only a tour of the synagogue but also a fascinating visit of the area where the Jews had lived. I would highly recommend both Roza and this tour.
Highly recommend this 4-hour tour. Our guide - Ms. Roza Jedrzejko - was very knowledgeable about the complex history and culture of the Jewish population of Porto that dates back to the 1100s. While we toured the former Jewish quarters, Roza “pointed out” places of interest; many that no longer exist ("the hidden synagogue".) The highlight was a visit to the very active Mekor Haim, Porto’s Synagogue, the largest in the Iberian peninsula. When booking, be sure to check whether synagogue will be open on tour day.
