2-timmars privat vandringstur genom Palmas judiska kvarter
Beskrivning
Din privata guide tar dig till de viktigaste platserna i stadens centrum. Vi kommer att besöka statyn av Jafuda ben Cresques, en judisk kartograf från 1300-talet som gjorde den världsberömda katalanska Atlaskartan som Christopher Columbus kan ha använt på sina resor. Vi kommer att gå nerför Leather Maker Street och lära oss om det gamla bageriet som heter Can Miquel som fram till nyligen fortfarande var i bruk och som är känt för att vara byggt på platsen för "sinagoga nova" eller "nya synagogan." Vi kommer att diskutera de många hemliga traditioner som kryptojudarna upprätthöll för att hålla sin tro vid liv så bra som möjligt, även under inkvisitionens ständigt vaksamma ögon.

Vi kommer att leta efter skyltar och ledtrådar gömda inom väggarna och gatunamn som refererar till ett en gång framträdande judiskt förflutet. Tillsammans kommer vi att beundra en väggmålning som nyligen målades under pandemin som lyfter fram en väldokumenterad historia av lust och konflikt som ägde rum mellan två judar i Kärlekens torn under 1300-talet. Vi kommer också att besöka platsen för huvudsynagogan där Montesionskyrkan nu står och gå nerför vindens gata där du kan hitta något överraskande.

This was the best tour I “ever” took. Juan enthusiastic and knowledge of the history of the Mallorca Jewish made me want more. I did not want this tour to end. I would not hesitate to book this tour.
Our tour was excellent and our guide Juan was perfect. Knowledgeable, funny, and super accommodating. I recommend this tour highly

We booked the 2-hr tour on our first day in Pulma, which not only gave us a perspective on the Jewish community in Mallorca but also helped orient us to the city. Noa was a terrific guide and connected us in a meaningful way to an important piece of Jewish history. We were glad to help keep the stories of Mallorcas Conversos and Xuetas alive.

This was a very special way to see Palma Mallorca especially during Passover. We were fascinated by the Jewish history and learned more about the Jews of Spain. Noa was a great guide and teacher. She was knowledgeable and connected us with important history.
Thank you so much for joining us in Mallorca! We are so happy to have shared such a special tour with you during a special time of the year for us!
A very authoritative and well-organized tour by Shaul. As the sites themselves have long been destroyed, the detailed recounting of the fascinating history was the most intriguing part. Being in the actual locations where the history took place definitely made it feel real, though.

Noa introduced us to the rich history of the Jews of Mallorca within the old city of Palma, some of the other Belaric Islands, and Spain. Her guided tour through the former Call Major of Palma, helped us understand the life of the Jewish community, and the Xuetes (descendants of Palma’s forced Jewish converts to Christianity). Detecting traces of Jewish life in Palma would have been extremely challenging without her insight and guidance.

We had a fabulous tour with Shaul! It was fascinating to learn about the Jewish history of Mallorca, and equally fascinating to bring it up to the present day and to the experiences of Jews today on Mallorca. I appreciated the combination of historical facts and Shaul’s take on the different eras he was teaching us about. It was the easiest thing to schedule and book with Dani, the owner, and we were able to choose the time that best fit into our itinerary.

Interesting tour, spent way too long in one place "getting to know each other". Tour did not cover the Larger Jewish quarter – only the small older section. Guide promised additional info to be sent to us – now 3 weeks later nothing received. Guide had a really interesting book, which the whole tour was based upon. For the price paid, a copy of that book would have been appreciated.
Hi Mike - I am sorry to hear that the tour was not a five star experience for you and Marilyn. We had send you all the links via whatsapp the day after the tour on January 12th. If you are able to check and confirm that we had sent the links it would mean a lot to us. We take our commitments very seriously and want to ensure that you received the links as we promised. There you will find the links to our film as well as the books we spoke about. My personal email is dani@jewishmajorca.com if you would like to write to me there so we can make sure that you receive all the info that we had sent to you the day after the tour. Thank you in advance Mike!
We were a group of 12 and were met at the cruise port by our guide, Denisse, and the van to take us to the city center. It was a very worthwhile and interesting 2 hours with Denisse, and everyone in our group was really glad they had participated in this tour. Denisse was passionate about this part of the Palma history and very knowledgeable. Thanks, Dani!
