L'East-End juif de Londres.
Description
La visite commence avec en toile de fond le Guildhall du 15ème siècle et la magnifique église de St Lawrence Jewry conçue par Wren; nous découvrons que nous sommes dans le ghetto juif de Londres La visite retrace l'itinéraire de l'arrivée du peuple juif en Grande-Bretagne depuis l'époque médiévale jusqu'à la scène de rue animée de Brick Lane. En cours de route, vous découvrirez la persécution et l'expulsion des Juifs sous le roi Édouard Ier et la réadmission ultérieure sous Oliver Cromwell. Nous suivrons le chemin des Juifs d'Europe de l'Est fuyant les pogroms des années 1800 et leur intégration dans la société et la culture britanniques. Nous rencontrons également les horreurs de l'holocauste et les histoires d'ingéniosité et de sacrifice derrière le mémorial de Kindertransport. Nous célébrerons la bataille de Cable Street de 1936, lorsque la communauté locale s'est serrée les coudes pour empêcher le mouvement fasciste de marcher dans l'East End juif. Nous visiterons les plus anciennes synagogues de Londres et nous promènerons dans Petticoat Lane.

Wonderful tour made fabulous by David. We could not possibly have had a better tour guide. We obtained an insightful understanding of the Jewish history in London as a result of David’s research and personal experiences during his life in London. Highly recommended.
A very different itinerary that a tourist would otherwise never see. Not only Jewish London but other unique places as well
Hi Martin, Thank you for your amazing review and feedback. So pleased you enjoyed the tour. Warmest regards, David
David (tour guide) was wonderful. Extremely knowledgeable and informative. Made many interesting stops and even provided snacks.
Hi Sandy, Thank you for the amazing feedback and review. I'm delighted that you enjoyed the tour and some of the hidden gems of London. Warmest Regards, David
David was a great guide and a very friendly and professional driver. We got everything we expected in this tour and a couple of bonus sites (Jack the Ripper and Harry Potter). Some of the scheduled places were quite moving and others wete very enlightening.
Hi Ronald, I'm so pleased that you both enjoyed the tour, and thank you for your amazing review and feedback. Warmest regards, David
I know the tour is going to be good when the tour guide arrives early. David came early and greeted us with a smile. What a delight to see London and the East End from the back of a London Taxi with a real life Jewish Taxi Driver. He was professional, friendly, informative and accommodating. It was just my wife and he made a couple of adjustments to accommodate our time needs and where we needed to be after the tour. London has a long Jewish history and we experienced part of it with David from the back of his taxi. Be forewarned though that some of what you will experience is being in the neighborhood of what was there. The real Jewish presence has moved away from the East End. For those of you that have traveled to the Lower East Side in NYC - very reminiscent of traveling on Orchard Street. David does other tours and when we come back we will definitely avail ourselves of his other tours.
Hi Jefferey, Thank you for your amazing feedback and review. I’m looking forward to meeting up with you and Michelle on your next tour. Warmest regards, David.
Great tour. Our tour guide was very friendly and very knowledgeable. His interaction with us was outstanding. He was very focus yet very flexible. We even stopped for the best bagels in London!! We would strongly recommend this tour to everyone as the information provided was outstanding. We were able to see parts of London that you normally would not, please go on this tour!!
Thank you John for the amazing feedback and review. It was a pleasure meeting you both and guiding you through London’s Jewish East-End history. So pleased you enjoyed the bagels! Best, David.
