My name is Nik. I love Toronto’s outdoor adventures and interesting buildings and gems around the city! I have been in and out of Toronto since 2016. Coming from cultrue where sport is deeply ingrained in one's lifestyle, my favourite activities by far are biking around the parks and SUPping the lake! During the summer, Toronto is an absolutely fantastic place for adventures, and the views of the city from the lake are abolutely stunning. This is also the time of festivals and many concerts, and I am always trying to stay informed about what events are held in town. Before becoming a Torontonian, have lived mostly in Europe and shortly in New Zealand. I am raised in Prague. I also lived in Lisbon and Sofia and for the last decade I have been teaching skiing and guiding in the Swiss Alps. In case I am not chasing an adventure, I work in tech and finance. I try to stay outdoors as much as possible to compensate for the hours spent in front of screens. Since being in high school, I have been almost always working part-time in the tourist sector, so it is now 2 decades since I have been delivering some sort of experience to visitors of either Prague, the Swiss Alps, or also some other places such as Whistler, Canada or Wanaka, New Zealand. I have worked with people from all over the world and dare to say you will be with a very experienced guide on your tour. Nevertheless, a guide who is always looking to learn and improve. Being a passionate nature lover, I am eager to deliver some adventure-packed experiences combined with city highlights! If you like to stay fit, while exploring both man made and natural wonders of Toronto, then I am the right person to tour with!
