About this experience
This is a unique tour with a litvak Ema Segal. Ema was born and raised in Vilnius in the 80s. During this half day tour you will not only hear and see a lot of interesting facts and stories about the Jewish life before and after WWII, but also hear Ema's personal story of growing up Jewish in the post-Soviet Vilnius.
This tour includes a 3-hour walking tour around the 2 Jewish ghettos (previously known as the Jewish Quarter), and later a drive to the Ponar forest. You will be driven in a comfortable Volvo.
We shall visit the Choral synagogue, the main streets of the Jewish ghettos where buildings tell us a story of what once was a very flourishing Jewish town - the Jerusalem of the North. We will dive into the site of the Great Jewish Synaogue which used to the center of Jewish cultural, religious, and political life.
This private tour is suited for a max. 4 people group. Which allows for an intimate two-way communication.
THE MENTIONED TOUR PRICE IS FOR THE WHOLE GROUP.
