Jewish London Tour Itinerary
Starting in the medieval old city where they lived nearly one thousand years ago. Only fragments remain but you will hear the stories of how these Jews lived and where they prayed.
We will then move to the East End, just outside the old city walls. This is the area where, 100 years ago, the newly arrived Jewish immigrants lived and worked. A shtetl in the center of London. Yiddish was the language of the streets here as this dirt-poor community struggled to make a home and life for themselves.
When open, we will visit inside Bevis Marks, the oldest surviving synagogue in the UK. You will hear stories of great British Jews such as Prime Minister Disraeli and philanthropist Moses Montefiore. Sweatshops and street markets, singers and poets, shuls and soup kitchens.
Along the way, you will sample traditional Jewish food such as bagels, fish & chips & herring (if you’re game!)
