Hello and greetings from Prague! My name is Valentyna and I would love to show you around some of the many hidden gems in the Czech Republic! I have been a licensed tour guide in Prague for over 20 years now. I specialize in full day tours from Prague. I would love to guide you visiting some beautiful and historic regions in the Czech Republic, such as several UNESCO sites and the historical Terezin Concentration Camp. My background is in Jewish history; I am a licensed tour guide of the Jewish Museum in Prague and the Terezin Concentration camp, so my specialty is in Jewish tours. I can promise you a heartfelt, sensitive and comprehensive experience. On the other hand, I love to show my guests the other enchanting regions of the Czech Republic, such as the UNESCO sites of Karlovy Vary and Kutna Hora. With me, you will experience historical town centres, pristine views, an abundance of history and the beautiful Czech countryside, not to leave out enchanting food and hospitality. There are so many other beautiful regions to discover in this country, so I aim to show you the best of the best! I look forward to taking you on tour soon!

Overview of your Prague tour

Terezin, also known as Theresienstadt, stands as a reminder of the atrocities committed during the Holocaust. I am a licensed guide of Theresienstadt, so I will make sure to share my vast knowledge of the site, and answer all your questions. Together will enter the solemn grounds of Terezin, where we will come face to face with the harsh reality faced by prisoners detained in this infamous camp. We'll also get to visit the Ghetto Museum and have the opportunity to watch a "Propaganda film". I will also guide you through the preserved barracks, the hidden synagogue, the Jewish cemetery and the Menorah monument. In addition to this, we will visit the crematorium, the small fortress and explore the Gestapo prison, and even gain exclusive access to a secret tunnel that most visitors do not get to visit unless they know a local guide! This tour of Terezin is a somber yet essential experience and will provide you with a deeper understanding of the immense suffering and resilience of the human spirit.
