    The Jewish quarter is very interesting and has a long history, including centuries of history behind it, and has good restaurants, worth a try.

    One point to highlight is the punctuality, we had time to enjoy the ride and visit many great places, considering the pace of the ride the group and I were comfortable. Recommended
