Well organized, sad but necessary tour. - Seeing the atrocities and crimes that Nazis committed in this camp is a more affective and moving experience than learning from the books and documentaries. Our tour guide Jarka was very knowledgable. She explained the historical background, and the events took place before and after the war prisoners entered to the camp, the situation in the Terezin ghetto and afterwards very clearly. Her skills on languages (English and Italian) was flawless. She should be a teacher in a university with the scholarly knowledge. Thank you Jarka making a stressful tour a balanced and pleasant one. - Anne & Sinan

Great excursion with informative guide. - Really informative trip. Our guide in the coach , Mikhaela, was really knowledgeable about the background of Terezin and didn't make us feel hurried in any way round the memorial. The local guide at the Small Fortress was excellent. Thoroughly recommend this trip.

Very Moving - The tour was short but very informative. The first stop at the small fortress gave you an up close look at a terrible time in our world history. The museum stop was informative but wish we could have spent more time there.

Terezin Ghetto & Fortress - Terezin is a fascinating place to visit and well worth the trip from Prague which was just under an hour each way. Our guide was knowledgable but we weren't the only ones struggling with her accent and doing our own research (wikipedia on our phones) on the bus trip there. Also it was advertised as an English tour but there was a Spanish group as well so everything was said in both languages which made it a bit disjointed. The local guide within the small fortress was great.
