Johnny's Prague Photography Tour

I took Jan’s photo tour of Prague, and it was outstanding. Jan is a fantastic guide and teacher—he asked about our background as photographers, spent individual time with each of us to understand our background, and helped us use our cameras much more effectively. Our route offered photo opportunities at unique, off-the-beaten-path locations as well as prime spots for classic Prague shots. At each stop, he explained why he brought us there, offered creative ideas for composition, showed us examples of his own photos, and suggested camera settings. I learned new techniques and got to practice skills I’d forgotten. At the end, he gave us a great list of additional locations to shoot after the tour. We covered a lot of ground in 2.5 hours—far more than I could have managed on my own—and it was simply fun to shoot alongside fellow photographers. Highly recommended!

I had a great photo tour with Jan Miřacký of Johnny’s Prague Photo Tours during my visit to Prague last week. Jan is an excellent guide, teacher, and shooting companion. I thoroughly enjoyed spending time with him, photographing the city and learning more about cityscape photography. A highlight was working with ND filters for long-exposure photography. We used a 6-stop filter during the tour, and I came away with a better understanding of the technique and how to apply it to my own photography, including using a 10-stop ND filter in daylight. Jan made the learning practical, enjoyable, and easy to understand. I highly recommend Jan and Johnny’s Prague Photo Tours to anyone who wants to photograph Prague while developing their skills. His combination of teaching, guidance, and good company made this a terrific experience. I would gladly book another tour with him.

This was a great session. Jan is patient and gave lots of great tips on how to capture some of Prague's most iconic vistas. He tailored the experience based on our skill levels and was great at sussing out opportunities for tour participants with very, different gear.

My wife and I recently had a private tour Jan. Due to vacation plans we chose a morning tour. Jan was very efficient in responding to questions prior to the tour and provided detailed information for the tour. I had a user error in using the information but Jan was very kind in walking us through that. The tour was excellent. We made five to six locations and Jan offered great insight and guidance to assure we had the best opportunity for images. While on the tour the light over the Charles Bridge blew up and Jan immediately knew of a location for fantastic views which did not include any other photographers. A really cool experience. Jan is obviously a skilled photographer. A quick review of his gallery illustrates that point. However, he is an even better person. Quick wit, and friendly, Jan was a pleasure throughout the tour. He provided local knowledge as well as superb photography tips and insights. If you're in Prague, Jan offers great photography in Prague. Highly recommend this tour!

Thank you so much for the lovely instructive and interesting tour yesterday . I really enjoyed it and learned a lot .And especially thank you for your patience- it was trully appreciated.

I selected a 3‑hour photography tour with Johnny and it exceeded all expectations. Despite my injured knee, Johnny was incredibly thoughtful and adjusted the pace and route so I could still cover a surprising amount of ground. His knowledge of photography is exceptional — he doesn’t just point out locations, he teaches you how to see them. He encourages you to think about how you compose a shot, what settings will work best, and why. I finished the tour with photos I’m genuinely proud of, and I even returned to some of the same spots the next night when the light was better and captured even more stunning images of Prague. I could have spent three full days with Johnny and still not uncovered all the magic this city holds. A brilliant experience for any photographer.

I visited Prague for the first time and took a 1:1 photo walking tour with Johnny/Jan. It was a blast and I really enjoyed it. He is very patient and gave practical tips. He poses simple questions to make a person think and that will likely make me remember things. He also gave a few exercises that are also useful. He asked me about my level and skills so that he could customize and was well-prepared about the walking route and where to go. Clearly he has done this several times before because he knew about good spots.

Jan is a very knowledgeable guide and knew exactly where (and when) to go to the best vantage points. He also pointed out the appropriate camera settings to guarantee the bet results for every shot. I enjoyed this trip very much since he is a very likable person as well which made this encounter a fun experience. I can wholeheartedly recommend him for everybody trying to improve on their knowledge regarding photography and the local culture.

Simply amazing! Johny is a wonderful photographer who showed me some great spots for photographing in Prague. Helped with settings, advice on composition and many other tips. I generally don’t do this type of photography but Johny open my eyes to a new world.

Jan was sooo nice and helpful. While I consider myself a very experienced photographer, he taught me more than a few things and techniques. I cannot recommend him highly enough. You will not be disappointed.
