Joodse geschiedenis van Coimbra | Expert Gids sinds 2012
Beschrijving
Dit is exclusief van mij, product van continu onderzoek van GO! Wandelingen Portugal gidsen en stadsarcheologen door de jaren heen! Tijdens deze rondleiding loop ik je door de herinneringen aan het joodse Coimbra. De eerste tekenen van de Joodse aanwezigheid in Coimbra dateren uit de 10e eeuw, gesignaleerd door de transactie van grondbezit in een nabijgelegen dorp. We weten dat later, tijdens het bewind van D. Afonso Henriques, enkele garanties en gronden werden toegekend aan deze gemeenschap, die zich tot in de 16e eeuw over het hele Portugese grondgebied uitbreidde. Dit is meer dan alleen gebouwen of materiële getuigenissen van de Joodse aanwezigheid, dit is een rondleiding over de rijke geschiedenis en cultuur van deze gemeenschap.

Sara was punctual and very accommodating. She was knowledgeable and lively. We enjoyed our tour very much.
Hi Maggie! Always a pleasure to welcome travelers to my hometown and share the Jewish legacy in Portugal. See you in the future!
The tour was very informative and provided an insightful history of Coimbra. Our guide, Ava, was knowledgeable, accommodating and her English was exceptional. We have already recommended the tour to friends.
We are so glad that you enjoyed the guided tour with Eva. It's been great letting you know about the Jewish Heritage of Coimbra at your own pace with our private tour! We're here to welcome your friends. All the best, Sara GO! Walks Portugal
The guide was very patient. I loved going through the streets of this exceptional city. We were lucky enough to witness the students preparing for a “last” procession. Very interesting!
Hello Maria, glad you enjoyed the tour and the students traditions ☺️ you are welcome back anytime!
We needed to cancel our trip because of illness. We contacted the wholesaler directly to ask for a refund because this was what TripAdvisor suggested. They refused. Saying they did not have enough notice though the normal Tripadvisor policy says that 48 hours is sufficient. Never use this organization if you are concerned about possible cancellation.
Hello Melvin, all our tours are non-refundable. This is a policy stated in the reservation conditions, which every client should read before making the payment (as in any contract), so unfortunately you didn't read about it upon reservation. We can open an exception and book for another date/schedule, if our guide who is hired for the service is available. So feel free to contact if you come here in the future. We will be glad to welcome you.
Our tour guide was excellent and the tour included recent finds that have yielded even more information about Jewish history in Coimbra.
Eva was well versed on the Jewish history in Coimbra as well as general history of the city. A lot of walking but she tries to find area that are not as steep. Throughly enjoyed!!
Thank you very much for your feedback! We appreciate that people notice we try to adapt the tours to their needs and pace :) it was great guiding you and you're welcome back anytime!
Eva was a wonderful guide. She was knowledgeable and spoke with enthusiasm. If you are interested in this subject book this tour.
Sara is an outstanding guide who provides a fantastic tour. She is extremely knowledgeable and can answer questions with examples from the latest historic research. Before the tour, we had walked around and thought we had seen a lot. Walking with Sara, we realized we had missed so much of Jewish and local history which she expertly tied together. Sara is additionally very personable which made our tour not just fascinating but also very enjoyable. We were grateful,too, that she tailored our tour to some mobility issues- not an easy task in such a hilly city-something which makes Sara's tours unique.
Hello Susan :) thank you!! It was great guiding you and I hope to meet you again in the future. All the best!
