Sara is a knowledgeable and very friendly guide; she helped us discover the "secrets" of the Jewish ghetto, and the children had a great time. Highly recommended.

Terrific tour of the ghetto with Sara Terracina

First rate tour by Sara. She was extremely knowledgeable and even shared her family’s personal history. She welcomed questions and gave very complete answers. While her language is Italian, her English was impeccable. We highly recommended Sara as a guide of the ghetto, museum and Great Synagogue.

Had an amazing experience...

Had an amazing experience with Sara as our guide! She was incredibly knowledgeable about the area and took the time to share fascinating details about her family history, which added such a personal touch to the tour. It truly felt like I was exploring with a friend rather than just a tour guide. Sara's personable nature made the whole experience enjoyable and memorable. Highly recommend!

Touching history tour

Sara was fantastic! We were able to walk around and see where the Jewish ghetto was and learn the history of the Roman Jews. It was very interesting and moving. We also toured the museum that is connected to the Synagogue. Sara gave us a tour of both synagogues and beautiful details of each item in the museum. I would have stayed even longer had time allowed. Truly amazing.
