The benefits of choosing European Jewish Tours
- We are the only private tour company organizing private customized tours to all major European countries where Jews have made their mark over the centuries. Our tours which are conducted by local expert guides show the well-known and lesser known Jewish sites, including museums, synagogues, cemeteries, Jewish centers of learning, as well as places where famous writers, artists and scholars made their mark.
- We are open for business year-round, including on major international holidays. If guests wish to do walking tours on Saturdays or visit museums, our Gentile guides can pay for admissions and we can arrange for a kosher picnic lunch.
- In addition to offering Jewish-themed tours in Great Britain, France, Italy, Spain, Germany, Holland, the Czech Republic, Poland and Turkey, we also are able to offer secular tours around the art, history and culture of these countries. To learn more about these programs, click here.
