Overview of your London tour:

Follow in the footsteps of Jewish immigrants through the ages that will give an insight into the struggles, discrimination and battles the new arrivals were faced with as they tried to integrate into British life. The primary focus of this experience is the arrival and assimilation of Jewish communities and their positive influence on British culture, food, and society. What would life be like without chicken soup and beigles?! I draw my knowledge from my own Jewish heritage, and also due to working within the East End of London during large parts of my life. This tour will take us through a timeline from Medieval London to the pogroms of eastern Europe, the atrocities of the Holocaust and the struggles of other communities of immigrants that have found refuge in London's East-End multi-cultural society, that has now become the centre of some of the finest south Asian cuisine and creative street art. The following itinerary could be customized upon request:
