Hi there! Nice to meet you

Ivana

I have spent a lot of time in developing countries around the world. Everywhere I used service of local assistants to help me understand context of cultural background. They facilitate for me the contact with population and enable me to visit places which are not the first class tourists attraction, but I feel the real life there...

I feel to be a debtor in this regard, and I would like to pay this debt now by revealing to you the secrets of my city and by introducing it to you as others have done for me.

My task is much simpler, because the city sets its unrepeatable face in its own and I am here to show you maximum of it.

I will be happy to present you brief teritorial background with final twists of independant country during last century. World war II is a good example.

Lets touch together this period with some stories foregoing tragedy of the WWII and lets touch unique autentic places, where nobody else comes. You will have a priviledge to visit them! Let´s have a look also to some of following years, which leads us to pleasant presence and comfortable life which shift Prague between cities-Best For Life. And this is not my statement. This is an official statistics.

Let´s have a look to cubism, functionalism, art nouveau, followed by socialistic realism...

I am sure that you will find the fascination as I did...

I will do my best to help you also in French or Russian language, if you accept my accent :)

If you feel to escape from the sun-hot streets of the city, or if you want to see more that only life of the capital, we can go on a trip to unrepeatable atmosphere of king city Kutna Hora, which is not far from Prague.

If you feel to come in brief touch with our neighborhood then Dresden would be a good example for comparison of countries in the Central European territory.

If you feel to come in touch more with authenticity of WWII, lets visit together Prague Gestapo HQ, places of excellent Three kings operations and Terezin fortress with its dark period of WWII.

Trips out of Prague are for maximum 4 people in A/C car.

We had the pleasure of spending a morning with Ivana gaining a deeper understanding of the events of WWII in this part of the world. She is a very knowledgeable and friendly person , who is passionate about sharing her history. She was able to show us memorials we would have missed on our own and take us into a very touching museum we could not have entered on our own. There were some emotional moments as she shared some terrible events with us, bringing to light the realities of what happened in Prague. We thank her for what she shared and that she chooses to do this. A deeper understanding

Ivana was a great guide. She started by going the extra mile by working with us to adjust the start time after our train to Prague was significantly delayed. During the tour she provided a lot of information and context to Prague WW2 history. It was a great experience to learn about this from someone who is from Prague. Great tour

We definitely enjoyed this off-the-beaten path tour. Ivana is extremely wise and full of personal insights about Prague and its history. She has a very unique perspective that you would never get on a normal tour! We couldn’t recommend her tour more. Definitely do it and see Prague in a new light! Very knowledgeable guide!

Ivana is very knowledgeable and passionate about Prague and Czech history. However the tour spent too much time on medieval history and not enough exploring the highlights of Prague. For example, there was no explanation of the Astronomical clock and the monument in old town square. She also bounced between time periods and rulers so much that it was confusing. Sadly I would not recommend this tour.Too mich amcient information.

Ivana really showed interest to our questions which were related to ancient and more recent history. She told us about life in this city over the last decades and showed us a around with more emphasis on the north side of the city. A real “total picture” of this famous and beautiful Prague!About Prague and being raised in this city

Ivana was truly wonderful. We had a walking tour with her but my daughter had an injury, and Ivana offered to drive us around and have the tour this way. Ivana was very knowledgeable and told many stories involving the places we visited, as well as much of Prague's history. She is smart, well spoken, and a sweet person. I highly recommend any tour with her.Wonderful Ride To Amazing Sites and Views!
