Dear travellers, I am Markéta, an experienced, fully licensed guide born and raised in Prague. As I love guiding and driving at the same time, I would be delighted to drive you around Prague and to some of the most special places of my beautiful homeland! I have worked as Prague private guide specializing in history, architecture & hidden gems since 2003, so I am ready (and happy) to flexibly personalize every tour. Each custom private tour is designed to create your ideal Prague experience meeting your needs, interests and pace. If mobility is a concern, the private car option allows us to explore the city comfortably and efficiently. Taking along a walker or a wheelchair (if needed) is not a problem either. I have lived in Prague for my whole life and as a child, I loved strolling the old Prague's streets, hearing legends about the old Prague from my parents. I started to work as a professional guide after receiving the Official guide of Prague certificate, aged 20… and soon I found out that being a guide in Prague is really great! It's because the city is so beautiful and most people seem to like it :) Later I studied Art history at Masaryk University in Brno. My hobbies are architecture, music, history, gastronomy, photography, and yes, good Czech beer as well - and of course, my amazing job that includes meeting people from all over the world and sharing our stories. • Are you a history, culture and architecture lover? • Do you like receiving relevant information in an entertaining way? • Does it sound good to you to have a beer at a place where locals go? Then, it's probably going to be a perfect match! :) I would like to invite you to: • My beloved town of Český Krumlov, a fairy-tale medieval city with cobblestoned streets • Terezín, a former concentration camp, in combination with Dresden, a baroque city in Saxony almost destroyed by bombing in 1945 • and to a short driving tour through the historical centre of Prague and its most beautiful views called Prague after dark We will use my practical and roomy car, comfortable enough for 4 passengers + driver (me). I hope you will enjoy even longer transfers in my comfy Volkswagen Sharan, where you can adjust the position of every seat. In the city, you might appreciate a panoramic roof for better views of the architecture around and above. I'm looking forward to meeting you in Prague! *Bachelor's degree in History of Arts and Culture (2012) - Masaryk University in Brno *Official Tour Guide for Prague region Certificate (2003) - Prague City Tourism *Official Guide of the Jewish Museum in Prague Certificate (2006) - Jewish Museum in Prague *National Guide Certification card of 2nd grade - with proven qualification *Professional Driver Trade License (2012) - Trade Licensing Office Prague *Czech Association of Tourist Guides member No restrictions

Overview of your Prague tour

First we will visit Bastei. The Bastei is a rock formation towering 194 metres above the Elbe River in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains of Germany. Reaching a height of 305 metres above sea level, the jagged rocks of the Bastei were formed by water erosion over one million years ago. They are the major landmark of the Saxon Switzerland National Park. The Bastei has been a tourist attraction for over 200 years. After the lunch (not included) we will continue to Dresden which has a moving history - it was chosen as a target for bombing by the allies in 1945 and was almost destroyed. However, during the past 30 years it was reconstructed and now for sure is worth a visit. I recommend the visit of the so called Green Vault, a fairy-tale treasury with the most exquisite jewels I have ever seen. In December, Dresden has amazing Christmas markets.

This tour was Day One of three tours we took with Marketa. I was a little concerned about the length of the tour and being able to manage my walker/wheelchair; however, it all worked out perfectly. Marketa is a kind and knowledgeable guide, and an excellent driver. What a great opportunity to go to a unique National Park in Germany and to visit the extraordinary museums in Dresden. Katrina planned a beautiful day including a lovely place for lunch. We were excited that we would be touring with her again in the coming week! Also, she is prompt with communication as we planned the tours months ahead of our visit to Prague.

Markéta was an excellent tour guide... very organized and so knowledgeable about all that we saw throughout our tour. We highly recommend Marketa as a tour guide in and around Prague!

Marketa was a delightful surprise - both her depth of knowledge and her charming personality. We spent our first day driving outside the city with constant commentary about the history of the area and the current day situation in the outer city areas. From the terrorist history of Terezin, a way stop for a traditional Czech lunch, and a side trip to Dresden, Germany our day was complete with emotional highs and lows. Marketa was an incredible leader with much insight into our personalities.
