Wonderful experience - Our tour guide, James, did an excellent job walking us through history of the early Roman Empire all the way to the modern era Jewry that now lives in the Jewish Ghetto. High recommend the tour to learn about the struggles and success of the Jews in this region. It was nice to see the community still thriving. Thanks again!
