L'East End ebraico di Londra.
Descrizione
Il tour inizia con lo sfondo del 15° secolo Guildhall e la magnifica chiesa di St Lawrence Jewry progettata da Wren; scopriamo di essere nel ghetto ebraico di Londra Il tour traccia il percorso dell'arrivo degli ebrei in Gran Bretagna dal medioevo fino alla vivace scena di strada di Brick Lane. Lungo la strada, scoprirai la persecuzione e l'espulsione del popolo ebraico sotto il re Edoardo I e la successiva riammissione sotto Oliver Cromwell. Seguiremo il percorso degli ebrei dell'Europa orientale in fuga dai pogrom del 1800 e la loro integrazione nella società e nella cultura britannica. Incontriamo anche gli orrori dell'olocausto e le storie di ingegno e sacrificio dietro il memoriale di Kindertransport. Celebreremo la battaglia di Cable Street del 1936, quando la comunità locale si è schierata spalla a spalla per impedire al movimento fascista di marciare attraverso l'East End ebraico. Visiteremo le sinagoghe più antiche di Londra e passeggeremo lungo il vicolo di Petticoat.

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!!
