Personal Prague tour - City highlights, WWII, The Jewish Quarter & life under communism - We had an exceptional tour with Jana Gluchman, organized on very short notice for my US relatives. Jana did an outstanding job tailoring our trip, which included a comprehensive overview of World War II, the Jewish Quarter, and life under communism in the Czech Republic. We all gained a wealth of interesting facts and stories. Jana was extremely knowledgeable, professional, flexible, and well-prepared. Despite the cold weather, she made our tour highly enjoyable and kept us engaged with her extensive knowledge and ability to answer our numerous questions. I highly recommend her and look forward to another tour with Jana in the future. Thank you Jana and Šarka for being very responsive and flexible.

Serendipity - In a foreign land, without understanding a single word of the native language and having no idea of where to begin or end our journey, we were rescued by one of the most extraordinary tour guides I've ever met in many, many years of world travel. Veronika Voldrichova was unbelievably knowledgeable, engaging, and personable. Speaking for myself, when I schedule a half -day with a complete stranger I have never even seen before, I tend to have a little anxiety as one would have on a blind date. However, Veronika glowed with a warm and comforting attribute that gave me comfort in a matter of seconds. She sat us down and sincerely asked many questions to find out what our interests were in this beautiful and never ending abyss of history of the city named, "Praha." Then we began a tour that was as charming as it was educational. Veronika had an extremely deep understanding of the area’s history and culture. She was able to patiently answer questions, create a welcoming atmosphere, and have a knack for storytelling that brings the place to life. Veronika had a passion for the city she calls home and a joy for her work not unlike one of the many Saints she taught us about. One who not only has the mind to be distinguished, but the heart as well. She gave us one of those priceless and rare treasures only found in the smallest of corners...An everlasting, good memory.

Top notch walking tour. A must do! - We booked to two, one half day walking tours and couldn’t have been more pleased! Our guide, Alzbeta (Bety), met us at our hotel each morning and took us out into the city and toured us around based on our personal preferences. We were very interested in the history of the Czech Republic, along with art and culture. Bety was so passionate about everything she shared with us and her broad knowledge and understanding of her country was truly impressive. It was a great introduction to the city and the country. I would give this tour a 10 star rating if I could!

Touring Prague with a Personal Prague Guide - Alzbieta was an amazing tour guide who was fun, personable, and has an incredibly wealth of knowledge about her city. She showed me a Prague that I never would have gotten to know through travel books alone. When you visit a new place, you want that friendly local who can point out the small things with big stories, and direct you the restaurants that can accommodate your food preferences (I'm vegetarian). You also want a knowledgeable companion, and I got all of this out of my time with Alzbieta. Historic places, fun detours, history of the town itself.
Mega props to the company as well. Fantastic communication and easy to make arrangements. This company and its tour guides know exactly what people need and how they should be treated. Nothing but accolades for the unforgettable experience. I cannot wait to return to Prague.

The best private tour of Prague - Here’s a polished review for Sarka:
We had the absolute pleasure of having Sarka as our guide for a private tour of Prague, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From start to finish, Sarka was incredible—knowledgeable, engaging, and completely attuned to our interests and needs.
Her depth of knowledge about Prague’s history, culture, and hidden gems brought the city to life in ways we could never have imagined. What made the experience even more special was her flexibility; she tailored the tour perfectly to match our wishes, ensuring that every stop was meaningful and aligned with what we wanted to see and learn.
Sarka’s passion for her city is contagious, and her warm, friendly demeanor made the day feel like we were exploring Prague with a friend. If you’re looking for a truly personalized, enriching, and unforgettable tour, Sarka is the guide you need. We can’t recommend her highly enough!

Wonderful Experience in Prague - We enjoyed an amazing tour with Tereza Moravcova! We spent two half days exploring the city. Tereza did a wonderful job talking about history, architecture, and culture. She showed us hidden gems and amazing small cafes. She gave us incredible recommendations and helped us arrange them! She was personable, helpful, and knowledgeable! It was an unforgettable experience.

Private tour in Prague - A personal private guide is the best way to absorb and understand the new surroundings. We walked, listened, viewed and chatted for 3 hours around the Historic Old Town of Prague. Our private guide, Lidia Nasincova, was not only knowledgeable but we considered her a life long friend by the end of the evening!
