Oh hey! I'm Andrey: tour guide based in Prague. On my tours I try to "read" artworks to recognize religious symbols, character clichés or attributes and genres. Sharing my knowledge of Czech history, culture, food and drinks is something I really enjoy. I have broad driver-guide experience, and that allows me to take you on a memorable journey to some of the most famous sites in Czech Republic. During my tours we will travel in a maximum 3 passenger brand new (2023) Hyundai i30 Wagon N-Line MILD HYBRID, or I can hire a 8-seat minibus, if a larger group is required. I can meet you from your city accommodation or directly at Prague Airport. Traveling in a car gives us access to all the hidden gems of Bohemia, Austria and Saxony. Each tour can be tailored to suit you and your interests. I studied wines in Austrian Wine Academy, and in 2015 with the completion of my wine research thesis I received the title of 'Weinakademiker'. As a WSET Certified Educator, I'm currently involved with a wine school approved by the Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET) to offer their qualifications. In my tours I try to combine art and culture with the local food and wine / beer pairing. If you like a winery / brewery tasting tour, I prefer to do everything possible to ensure that you discover the authentic pleasures of local drinks. There are a lot of hidden gems in Czech Republic that not on the usual tourist Itinerary. Historic towns (e. g. Telc), religious sites (pilgrimage Church of St. John of Nepomuk steeped in symbolism in Zdar nad Sazavou, and beautiful pilgrimage site in Svata Hora near Pribram), secluded parks (gardens and chateau in Kromeriz, Lednice-Valtice cultural landscape), and natural wonders (Erzgebirge/Krusnohori Mining Region). My interests include history of Prague, English and American Literature, wine tasting and trail running. That's right y'all, I'm not just a pretty travel guide face. There are a lot of places that you can visit while you are in Prague. I will love to meet some new friends and travel together. Feel free to drop me a line. - Guide of Prague, - Gold Card Czech Tourist Guide, - Terezin Memorial Accredited Guide, - Taxi driver license (Yellow card), - Master's degree in Philosophy, - Weinakademiker, WSET Certified Educator, Certified Sherry Educator, Cognac Educator.

I confess now, before you, that I was for many years in love with Cesky Krumlov. I remember when I first got here, I was blown away by the beauty of the town. From that moment on, I wanted to learn more about history, started reading art books and… decided to become a tour guide. The town of Cesky Krumlov remained almost intact, it has retained its street layout and many historic buildings including their details such as the roof shapes, the decoration of Renaissance and Baroque facades and vaulted spaces. The castle is dominated by the Gothic round tower was subsequently converted into a Baroque residence with the addition of a garden, summer pavilion and a unique Baroque theatre. We will make a stop at the town of Hluboka nad Vltavou to walk up to the romantic neo-Gothic castle, inspired by England's Windsor Castle. Please see the itinerary for a suggested list. We can change it and have the program of your choice. Please don't forget to wear comfortable walking shoes.

Andrey collected our group of 5 in a van for a Tour from Prague to Chesky Krumalof. It was a 10 hr tour with a Stop at Castle before the city. Andrey is very professional, extremely knowledgeable about Czech Republic history. The Hluboka nod Vlatou castle tour was exquisite and worth the stop. Andrey can speak to early history and present history. Truly presents the whole background of people and Czech history. The castle grounds are not to be missed, Krumaloff is beautiful. Would recommend Andrey!
My wife and I enjoyed and learned much from a day spent with Andrey touring from Prague to Cesky Krumlov. Andrey is accommodating, thoughtful, interesting, and quite well informed on local history and culture. If we had more time, we would engage him for a tour of Prague itself. Perhaps on our next visit to the Czech Republic we can tour with Andrey again.
Andrey tailored the trip to our specific requests. Spent some time at the Cesky Krumlov Christmas market. Andrey was informative, personable, and a joy to spend the day with. Would highly recommend him.
Andrey was prompt, very polite. thoughtful and entertaining. We had a group of three and he gave us a full day from 0900 to 2000. His depth of knowledge of Czech History and the influences of the different families is extraordinary. He is also an excellent driver. We will definitely ask for him the next time we visit Czech.
Andrey goes above and beyond as a guide- he is a flexible and thoughtful tour leader, a helpful travel companion, and an engaging conversationalist. I wanted to visit the Czech countryside as a solo female traveler and he was extremely accommodating in organizing and tweaking the itinerary, generous with his time, and conscientious in ensuring that everything went well. I would highly recommend booking with him.
