Benjamin was great. He displayed a vast amount of knowledge of Hungarian Jewish history and was able to give it over in a way that kept everyone entertained. Benjamin also switched up the itinerary on the spot, so we could do things we were more interested in.

The tour guide, Benjamin, was very knowledgeable and informative. We were really brought back to what the people experienced before and during world war 2.

We really love touring with Barbie. I just wish that we had spent more time looking inside the museum and the synagogues. She was a wealth of knowledge, however, once she was done talking, we moved on to the next thing. The cake at the end of the tour was nice, but really not necessary. Would have wanted to spend that time seeing the historical aspects of the tour more!
