This is a beautiful and historic house of worship. The tour is worthwhile for all interested in American history

This tour is very informative and interesting even if you are not Jewish. We listened to a tape about the history of Mikve Israel, got to view the Torah scrolls, then visited the museum with the docent where we heard many interesting stories about the Jews who came to Savannah from England in 1733. The gothic style building beautiful. It... More

The guide was amazing and knowledgeable - the information was fascinating as were the stained glass windows. A donation of $5 was requested and that appeared fair to me.

I learned a lot that I did not know about American history from... More

Although I am not Jewish,... More

Toby was a wonderful docent for a 45 min tour of this synagogue which has a done a great job of preserving so much of its history! A must see!

We knew we wanted to see the synagogue for its architectural merit, but literally stumbled upon a sign announcing tours. For a suggested $5 donation, we were treated to a docent led tour starting in the temple proper. The docent was a member of the temple and his knowledge and passion were self evident. Not only did we get a... More
