Explore the old Jewish parts of Vilnius with a Local
You will have a chance to walk around the former ghetto, which was full of culture. It even had an orchestra! You will be able to see the only synagogue left in the area and perhaps will try some of the best bagels in town!
You will be able to listen to a Vilnius Local sharing their thoughts and knowledge about this part of the city.
Before World War II Vilnius was called Jerusalem of the North. Jews accounted for more than a third of the residents of Vilnius. Unfortunately, all that changed during the war. Lithuanian children were trying to help but some saving jews and quite some Lithuanians did participate in the holocaust.
