Great intro to the city!
Hana was pleasant and so informative. She had a wealth of knowledge and was so enthusiastic about her job. Her husband gave us a ride to castle since public transportation wasn’t running there due to construction (and it was very cold)
We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Hana for another tour!

Simply the best
Spent an amazing few hours with Hana being introduced to Prague. I couldn't have picked a better first time tour. Hana is simply wonderful. Very knowledgeable, very warm and so much fun. I learned a lot about the history of Prague and had great conversations with Hana. I could have spent the whole day with her.
Thank you Hana for a lovely day.

Jarmila is an amazing delight!
We had SO much fun exploring Prague with the fun and informative Jarmila. She was knowledgeable about the history, but also has the fantastic perspective of a native Czech citizen. Our conversations were full of great facts, fascinating stories, and pure fun. If you have any time available, you will love getting to know this amazing human. :-) Thanks for making our short time in Prague so memorable.

Look no further than the wonderful Hana!!
This was my first tour with a local guide, and walking away from my time with Hana - I honestly wish I’d done this a lot earlier in life when I started to travel!
Hana is friendly, genuine and well educated with an incredible knowledge of Czech & European history - and all its complexities! It was a highlight of my recent visit to Prague touring the castle & castle district with Hana. I also appreciated her thoughtful conversation, and suggestions for the remainder of my time in Prague (and for my next visit). I highly recommend Hana as a local guide - look no further!!
P.s - Thank you for a wonderful few hours Hana :)
