My couple and I really loved this walking tour, Stefanie was very kind and charming during all the tour, and made our experience outstanding by exceeding our expectations. We are from Panama and we could only imagine and understand certain things, but walking trough the city with the knowledge and storytelling skills from Stefanie, we could really jump into the history and learn much more about it with significant histories, references to the book and nice pictures from places to have an idea on what happened. We really like it and understood perfectly.

We were very happy with the tour and Julia as our guide. She was a very good storyteller and the way she brought the diary in the story was very good. There were many details, that amazed us, and made us think of the many troubles that the jews faced.

David, our guide, was very passionate and knowledgeable about the history of Anne Frank and the Jewish quarter. It was a joy to hear about the history. I was running a few minutes late so I really appreciate the fact that David called me to say all was good and explained where to find them.
