This was a fascinating experience, and one I enjoyed thoroughly. Any question was welcomed and answered thoughtfully, and I came away informed and for reasons I can’t quite make sense of, quite inspired. A must for people visiting NY.

We went on this Tour over four years ago and it still feeds my Soul to this day. No words can describe it’s impact. Rabbi Beryl Epstein is so welcoming and his prayer for me and my Mother at the end, I believe is baring fruit in my life at this very moment. I love NYC but on this particular, having not seen most of the amazing sites NY has to offer chose to go on a Jewish Walking Tour. It’s WILL colour your life one way or another from the day you visit. To witness the simplicity of the dedication and passion to Gods Laws warms even the hardest of hearts. We are not excursion veterans, we discover our own places but this one was so worth it and now I have grown more as a person I think I would definitely go back again to expand on what I got from the tour the first time. Enjoy it. You won’t regret it.

This proved to be a very enlightening experience. The tour of Crown Heights Lubavitch community opened my eyes and mind to a very different world. Rabbi Beryl Epstein was brilliant in explaining the history, customs and all aspects of the religion from dress to prayer. A fascinating look into a world I knew very little about, I walked away with great respect for the Rabbi and the community.

Amazing tour. So much to learn about this wonderful way of life. From start to finish, everything was perfect. Highly recommended.

An intimate 3 hour tour (plan on more time as lunch follows) where Rabbi Epstein shares everything he knows about the Lubovitch sect. He is open, thoughtful, honest and truly hopes to inform. The thick veil held by this group is turned to gauze as he enlightens in a thoughtful way. We visited an eastern European style synagogue and observed the daily rituals of the men viewed from the women’s concealed viewing area. We visited a Mikvah (ritual cleansing bath) and learned of it’s importance to the religion. Then we visited the small teffillin workshop and learned about the various animal parts utilized with a kosher bent. Absolutely loved it, the time whizzed by. If you are at all interested in learning about a different culture this was A+. A 30 min easy subway ride from mid-town to Crown Heights B’klyn. (Get of the subway and you are jarred from the sophistication of Manhattan to the rich culture of a distinct neighborhood of African Americans and Jews.) Lunch is not to be missed as it’s a casual sit down with the ever garrulous rabbi in a small Halel eatery serving fresh felafel. Any questions you may have forgotten during the tour will be remembered.

Led by Rabbi Epstein this tour gives you a different look on NY. The tour started with the four of us on the tour telling the Rabbi about ourselves and why we were there. He then told us about the work of Lubavitcher. This was followed by a visit to a very busy synagogue. There seemed to be 100s of men there, with smaller groups at different parts of morning prayers. Many were putting in and taking off teffilin. Some were studying. We then moved on to Lubavitcher headquarters and saw the central control room where communities are contacted around the world. Our tour ended with a good kosher lunch.
Thanks, a Rabbi, for an extraordinary insight.
