Explore the Hasidic area of Brooklyn's Williamsburg neighborhood with tour guide and former Satmar Hasidic community member, Frieda Vizel. Together, we will virtually hit the streets of this New York City borough and learn about the history, culture and traditions of Brooklyn’s Hasidic community while stopping by Hasidic shops, eateries, synagogues, schools, and historical sites along the way.
Frieda Vizel is a critically acclaimed tour guide who focuses on exploring the hidden worlds of Hasidic Brooklyn. She was raised in the Satmar Hasidic community, and although she left the fold, she brings warmth and intimacy to her work.
