Mnuela is a grate guide - Manuela, is an excellent guide. She has a lot of knowledge about the Jewish heritage in Cluj and Romania in general. Beyond that, she is an impressive, pleasant woman with wonderful energy. She was very generous with me and helped me find my father's house in Cluj. I highly recommend her. Eimanuel Zviely

An incredible experience! - I had an incredible experience with Manuela! She is extremely knowledge about the history of the Jewish community of Cluj, as well as the rest of Romania. She also has a really interesting personal connection to the community as her grandfather helped to save the lives of Jews. Manuela is very genuine and authentic and added a personal touch to the tour. The pace of the tour was relaxed, but I was blown away by the amount of sites and stories she managed to fit in! I would definitely highly recommend doing a tour with her if you want to learn about the Jewish community of Cluj. This was an experience I will never forget! Thank you Manuela!

Recommended - I took a modified tour that consisted of the Jewish Cluj tour with Manuela in the morning followed by travel to Simleu Silvaniei and Huedin with Tudor in the afternoon. The trip was informative and enjoyable, and Manuela was kind enough to offer me a stop for tea because I had developed a sore throat.
