Loved our private tour

We had an amazing, personalized experience with Tomas on the tour. We saw so much of Lesser Town and the castle. He checked in with us frequently to make sure all of our questions were answered and he was extremely knowledgeable about the area. Definitely worth it to do a private tour.

Great time walking Prague with JK

Jk made it a really good experience for us. Since we have kids usually tours can be a little bit difficult, all depends on how good the guide is working with kids. Jk did a great job by making sure that we kept a swift enough pace, hit enough cool things, and as well as were able to stop and do random distractions to keep them entertained.

Hannah did great!! She was kind and helped me and my family understand the history of Prague. When I didn’t understand something I asked a question and she helped me understand what I didn’t. I felt comfortable around Hannah, And it was so fun!!!

Private walking tour with lots of history

The tour was very good fun, and Jan had lots of history and knowledge to impart. We saw and learnt things that we would have missed on our own, and it was nice to have a private tour.
