The place was impactful and the local guide there was very knowledgeable and helpful. However, the guide for this trip was disastrous. She was incredibly confusing, talked about random things, spoke the entire time, even when the group was not with her, what she chose to speak about was typically not what you would expect to be highlighted, and then she would pass by incredible things you would anticipate her to talk about, but she didn’t. Over halfway through our tour, she realized she had left her umbrella somewhere and was going to have the entire group go back to look for it. Instead, a member of our group volunteered to run back and look for it our guide not only allowed this, but continued the tour without the person who went to look for her umbrella. It’s important to note here that it was not raining nor was rain in the forecast, and her umbrella was left on the tour bus the entire time. We left the tour the first opportunity we had. You may also notice I never mentioned the guide’s name this is because she never gave it to us.

I would highly recommend you see Terezín, but take a car there on your own so you don’t leave frustrated and confused.

Helen the guide started off poor and crashed and burned by the end - speaking endlessly until it was torture. Her English was passable at best.

The tour sites visited were weak, we didn't really feel like we totally saw Terezinstadt. We could have skipped the esoteric art museum and spent more time in the camp itself. The guide at the Little Fortress was fair, albeit his English was also poor.

Helen droned on and on, especially on the ride back, about seemingly anything that came to her head, being unable to discern the wheat from the chaff.

Both guides lacked forming a connection with the tourists.

I myself am a tour guide in Jerusalem and know a thing or two about methodology. Helen certainly need s a refresher course. Your itinerary also needs improvement.

The Tour of the main prison was interesting and the guide was excellent. However felt large chunks were missed and weren’t able to look around further. The trip into Terezin was disappointing you were unable to look around and explore the history of the area instead you go into a Gallery which was a repeat of the Prison and wasted 30 Minutes watching a movie that was a repeat of the Prison tour when could have looked around the area. Would partially recommend but if you want to look at the wider parts suggest this isn’t the best way to visit.

If you visit Prague I totally recommend this tour. The English speaking lady who took the tour was very good and knew her subject. Totally enjoyable experience

Sadly I didn't get to take the tour. I had food poisoning & asked to switch to a different day. They strictly stick to the 24 hour rule. I get it & had I known I was going to get food poisoning 24 hours in advance I would have cancelled. They really need to have a little bit of flexibility!

Could hardly understand a word the tourguide said due to her lack of english language skills. Combined with the rush and the speed she talked through the whole guide it would have been better without a guide. Would have understood more if we had a german tour guide or if we were shown the 20 min film at the end of the tour only
