This was an excellent tour!! Jacob was our tour guide and was very knowledgeable about the city and its history. He should us many sites and provided options for future tours on our own that would be worthwhile. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to experience history.

Nadav is a very informative guide . We all ( even our children aged 12 and 15 and not the easiest to please ) enjoyed our tour with the focus on the Cold War . We would not have discovered half as much wandering about on our own .
