Explore Prague Terezin Fortress and Concentration Camp

Published on Nov, 2024

My husband, daughter, and I wanted to learn more about Terezin and opted for the Explore Prague Terezin Fortress and Concentration Camp tour. Our tour guide, Honza (Jack), was amazing! We were running late the morning of our tour and Jack pivoted meeting us at the train station to ensure we were able to start our tour on time. Jack was extremely knowledgeable about Terezin before and after WWII answering all of our off the wall questions. He was able to educate us on the purpose of Terezin and what really occurred there. He brought the story to life for us through the information and photos he shared. It is a somber subject and Jack treated it respectfully. Jack was also able to lighten the mood when the time was appropriate. We saw so many places and learned so much. Thanks Jack for a wonderful experience!

Couldn't ask for more to be honest.

Jack was amazing! It was truly a V.I.P tour if you ask me. I think if you truly want to see and learn Terezin for both it WW2 history and the fortress itself this is the perfect tour for you.

Exceptional Terezin tour

Had an absolutely exceptional tour of Terezin with our guide, Jack. He was extremely knowledgeable of the history of the fortress and it's inhumane use during WW2. I feel fortunate to have been on this tour and would highly recommend!!!!!!!!!

Terezin Fortress Trip with Jack

Published on Oct, 2024

We took the day long tour of the Terezin Fortress and Jewish ghetto, as well as the crematoria and small fortress. Our guide Jack was supremely knowledgeable about the history of the fortress before and during the war as well as the full history of WW2. We walked a bit around Prague and saw the Gestapo headquarters and other important landmarks before boarding the train to Terezin. Be prepared for about 17,000 steps for the day long trip. Well worth it. Thanks Jack!!
