It was a very eye opening experience our tour guide Helena was great and the whole experience was well worth the price. It was a bonus we had good weather. The bus trip is about 1hour and the same back. The driver dropped us of in the main square which was good. Well worth the visit.

Great tour, great guide. It is a sad place but at the same time it is part of the world history. We need to know and remember this places, to make sure this will never happen again. Terezin concentration camp is worth visiting.

I had this unforgettable trip to Terezin with some fellow students, guided by professors who are friends with Pavel Batel from their time in Israel. Pavel, who has this incredible backstory of leaving his job as a bodyguard for Hollywood celebrities to dedicate himself to Holocaust research, made the history come alive for us. He's talked with over forty survivors and now lectures across the globe. Learning about Terezin heroes like Rabbi Leo Baeck and Fredy Hirsch from him in just a few hours was incredibly moving. Later, we googled him out of curiosity and discovered his celebrity past and his current status as something of a legend in Czech media. It's quite something, seeing someone switch from such a glamorous job to educating others on these profound historical events. Pavel embodies the kind of educator that truly inspires, making difficult subjects accessible and compelling. Excitingly, our professors mentioned they're planning to invite him to our university in Denmark to speak next year. Can’t wait for that.
