Perfect introduction to our city break
We met Stephen for a 3-hour hidden gems tour of the city of Prague. He arrived in a timely fashion and we quickly got going with what was to be a supremely informative and interesting few hours. He covered all things historical, cultural, architectural and economical. He bought us both a local beer in an authentic Prague cafe which was delightful. He also took the time to message us with recommended restaurants that offered traditional and local Czech cuisine. We couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to our holiday and this beautiful city. 100% recommend.

Amazing Tour!!
My partner and I came in from Canada and could not have enjoyed this tour more. We make a point to always find a local tour guide and Hana has to be one of the best. She was SO amazing with really honing in on the history and painting the story of Prague for us. She is very knowledgeable, and made the tour very fun! It felt more like a walk with a good friend over someone talking at us for hours. Hana stands out in the guides that I have taken so far on our travels and I couldn’t be happier with our choice!

A wonderful experience with a lovely guide
We got an immediate a excellent contact with this marvellous guide. Jarmila is an excellent guide and a very nice and interesting person who I really loved. She not only informed us about the city and its story but also about daily life and personal experience. We saw several of the main places and streets in the city. The best was of course that we made it just in time so see the performance of magical clock of the city hall. She also took care of my wife that was very tired this day since we left home at five o’clock in the morning. I can recommend this tour and especially Jarmila.
We really appreciated this tour when we got a lot of insides of the history of this old city and many magnificent views. The Cathedral is very imposing but even more fascinating was the old basilica that got a not so nice facade. We also liked the Castle and the Golden alley with its historic and modern craft shops. The monastery was another hight. An experience of a different type was the fantastic view over this very beautiful city from the hill and during the walk down. I really appreciate that they have preserved the most part of the buildings and not teared them down for ugly modern buildings.
However, what we enjoyed most of this experience was our guide Jarmilla. She is very knowledgeable and gave us a lot of the history of the Prague and also of today Czechoslovakia and the daily life of its citizen. She is very personal, and we got stories from her family history that further increased our understand of the country, its resent history and its people. She is very good of taking care of and informing all the people in the group so no one felt neglected which easily is the case. I really loved her and I will remember her.
Our tour went from simple sandwich shop, via a luxury hotel café to a very traditional restaurant that specialise in Check food. In our small family group, we are very different then it comes to bravery and interest in new culinary experience. We all liked the different traditional mixtures for sandwiches. Even the least adventurous of us, that is me, liked everything. When we came the last stop the traditional restaurant the differences between us was considerable.
However, what we enjoyed most of this experience was our guide Jarmilla. She is very knowledgeable and gave us a lot of information about Prague and the country beside the food. She is very personal, and we got stories from her family history that gave us a understand of the country, its resent history, and its people. She is also very good of taking care of and informing all the people in the group, so no one felt neglected which easily is the case. She is a very lovable person, and I will remember her with great warmth.
