Opération Anthropoid Tours & Lidice Village en détail
Description
Cette visite offre une perspective unique sur ce qui s'est passé pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale et la résistance tchécoslovaque. Les points sont soigneusement sélectionnés pour montrer une Prague très différente et réelle avec sa banlieue communiste. Les voitures Trabant sont des véhicules socialistes classiques et peu de villes en Europe proposent des circuits touristiques dans ce type de véhicules. Celui-ci est spécial car il relie l’histoire et la bravoure absolue des patriotes qui ont résisté à la fois au fascisme et au communisme, mais aussi la trahison inattendue du plus proche. La visite est privée et confiée à un guide touristique agréé mais également à un patriote passionné et enthousiaste qui valorise la mémoire des héros locaux. Des circuits pour 2-3 personnes sont organisés soit en Trabant 601, soit en voiture Skoda neuve pour 1-3 personnes, soit pour 4 personnes et plus en minibus ou bus !

Un guide anglophone enthousiaste montrera aux clients la cathédrale Saint-Cyrille et Méthode, pointera sur place où les corps ont été placés pour identification après la fin de la bataille, visitera la crypte où se trouve une exposition d'objets et de photos et expliquera tout ce qui s'est passé ici le 18 juin 1942.
Un guide anglophone amènera les clients à la cathédrale Saint-Cyrille et Méthode pour montrer aux clients les points intéressants, où la dernière bataille a eu lieu et l'entrée secrète de la crypte, ainsi que la façon dont l'armée nazie est descendue pour crypter aux dernières minutes. À l'opposé de l'entrée principale se trouve un pub tchèque traditionnel appelé "At the Paratroopers" où chaque participant à la visite recevra un shot traditionnel de liqueur Becherovka.
Les clients seront conduits au cimetière de Dablice pour visiter la fosse commune des patriotes tchécoslovaques assassinés par les nazis.
Le champ de tir de Kobylisy est l'endroit où de nombreux patriotes tchécoslovaques de la résistance ont été abattus par les nazis ces jours-ci, un mémorial à ses victimes. Un guide anglophone racontera des histoires très uniques et intéressantes sur d'autres para-groupes et personnes de la résistance, sur des actes moins connus mais toujours extrêmement courageux et sur leur engagement absolu à résister au régime nazi!
Les clients seront conduits à proximité du mémorial de l'opération Anthropoïde, où l'assassinat de Heydrich a eu lieu le 27 mai 1942. Un guide anglophone montrera non seulement aux clients et aux anciennes photos comment la tristement célèbre courbe de Heydrich ressemblait à cette époque, mais vous emmènera également dans un charmant pub local caché pour une pinte de bière traditionnelle tchèque. Après s'être rafraîchis, les clients seront ramenés au centre-ville.
Sur le chemin du retour vers le centre-ville, les clients passeront par l'hôpital Bulovka à Prague 8, où Heydrich a été emmené juste après la tentative d'assassinat et où il est également décédé le 4 juin 1942.

I really loved this tour. Martina was extremely knowledgeable and informative. I couldn't have enjoyed the experience more!
Thank you so much for your kind review! I’m very happy you enjoyed the Operation Anthropoid tour. It was a pleasure guiding you through the key sites connected to the Czechoslovak resistance. Operation Anthropoid is a subject very close to my heart, and I’m always grateful when guests connect with the story of Jozef Gabčík, Jan Kubiš, and the brave people who helped them. Martina
We did the WWII Operation Anthropoid tour in Prague with Otto. He was absolutely outstanding — so passionate about the subject and able to keep it fascinating throughout, even in the cold weather. Otto brought history to life, showing us the exact places where key events happened and then sharing historic photos so we could truly imagine what it looked like under German occupation. The visit to the crypt, where the parachutists made their last stand and tried to dig their way to freedom, was incredibly moving. Also was the story of the lady who while interned at a concentration camp made sure the children had drawing materials and then stashed their drawings in a suitcase. You can see these drawings in Prague today. Otto’s storytelling was clear, detailed, and full of energy — my 16-year-old son was completely captivated, as were we all. Otto really made this tour what it was. Suggestion: With winter coming, it might be nice to begin the tour in a nearby coffee house — perhaps even charge a little more to include a drink — so Otto can give the initial 20 minutes of background somewhere warm before heading out. This tour delivered a LOT for the price.
I did two tours with Martina. Both were great. One was a full-day Operation Anthropoid tour that included a visit to Lidice where I saw the location of the destroyed former town and the nearby resurrected town built in 1949. I met a daughter of a woman who survived the massacre and deportation to a German work camp. I also saw relevant sites in Prague including the Cathedral Church of Saints Cyril and Methodius. An excellent tour with an excellent guide for this history buff. The second tour was a shorter tour - around 2-3 hours. We visited Vyšehrad and walked around the castle grounds and had a coffee at the end of our visit. It was like having a friend show me around the grounds. Martina was kind enough to drop me off at the Army Museum at the end of the tour. I was very pleased with my time spent with Martina, and it was well worth the cost. She is very personable and very interested in sharing the history of Prague, but also in sharing how people live in Prague, the Czech Republic, and neighboring Slovakia. An excellent guide!
Dear Dave it was lovely to tour with you and I was especially pleased that I could bring you to New Lidice and house 116 where you met original Lidice lady Verka - guide of the house. Again thank you for chosing me as a guide for this topic and will be looking forward to some more tours in the future when you visit :)!
The Operation Anthropoid tour was fantastic! Martina is extremely knowledgeable and very passionate about this topic. She made it so much fun to learn about such a heavy topic. I recommend this tour to everyone!
Thank you so much for your kind review and it was a pleasure to show you around and share with you as much as possible about our Czechoslovak heroes! Hope to have your crew back in Prague soon!
Martina our guide had tremendous knowledge, passion, and communication skills to express this topic. Her spirit was a highlight of our stay in Prague!
Thank you so much for your kind review it was my pleasure to take you around!
Excellent trip. In depth knowledge and fantastic to be at the sites where it happened. My wife who accompanied me with little knowledge wants to go on more military history trips!
Hi Chris thank u for the review and glad u enjoyed hopefully we will earn 5star for the next trip :)!
Spending the day with Martina was like being shown around by an old friend. She is so lovely and very knowledgeable. We had an amazing day with good food thrown in. Martina told us so much history that we wouldn't have otherwise known. Highly recommend this tour as a must do when you visit Prague.
Hello Karen, thank you so much for your kind review, it was great to spend a day with you guys and show you all around connected to Czechoslovak resistance! Hoping you come back for some more tours in the future! Stay in touch! Martina
Very knowledgeable guide who provided a very informative personalised tour. Martina was easy to deal with and went out of her way to ensure that I had a tour packed with many highlights. I will definitely be doing another tour with her in the future. It was certainly worth every cent. Awesome
Dear Kevin, thank you for your kind review! It was absolutely great to tour with you, we have more new exiting WW2 tours and trips so hope to have you back in Prague soon!
I went with a group of friends, one of whom has previously been to Prague and had enthusiastically spoke about what a great guide Martina is, and he's absolutely right. Martina's an enthusiastic, engaging, and knowledgeable guide who's very passionate about the history of Prague and Operation Anthropoid. You'll have fun while learning a lot about an incredible moment in Word War II/Prague history. Highly recommended, and already thinking about our next visit to Prague where we will no doubt book another tour with Martina's company.
Hello Paul! Thank you for your review its greatly appreciated and pleased to hear you had a good time!
Again. Martina delivered a great tour. We opted for the Operation Anthropoid. I’d recommend watching the film if you decide to go. Anyway it was great way to spend several hours in Prague and learn about this incredible piece of history. I honestly had no idea of the incredible bravery that each and every one of these men carried out. Truly humbling. Martina was extremely knowledgeable on the history and I would not hesitate to recommend her service. Thank you so much. We enjoyed the drink afterwards and look forward to seeing you in the future. Cheers
Dear Nick, Thank you so much for your lovely review! It was great to have you on a tour again, I think 6 or 7th during the years! Glad I could have done with you this new WW2 project and that you enjoyed Operation Anthropoid off-the-beaten-tracks!
