Hey there! I’m Jan – your licensed tour guide, drummer, music teacher, all-around history geek, and someone who believes every good city deserves to be explored with curiosity and a smile. I studied drums and percussion at the Jaroslav Ježek Conservatory (graduated in 1999), and music is still a huge part of my life. But since 2002, I’ve also been guiding people through the streets, castles, cafés, and hidden corners of Prague and the Czech Republic. I guide in English, Spanish, and Portuguese – so chances are, we’ll understand each other perfectly fine (and probably laugh a lot too). What can you expect on my tours? Think less “history lecture,” more “local friend showing you around his favorite spots.” I mix stories, humor, a few music references here and there, and plenty of insider tips – the kind that make you feel like you really *get* the city. I love taking people beyond Prague too – Český Krumlov, Kutná Hora, Karlovy Vary, Karlštejn, Konopiště… all magical in their own way. I also run guided transfers between cities like Prague–Vienna, Prague–Berlin, or Prague–Budapest. Why just travel from A to B when you can see something cool on the way? I’ve spent a year traveling across the Americas – from the U.S. to Mexico, Guatemala, and Brazil – and it taught me that travel is all about stories, people, and moments that make you smile years later. If that sounds like your kind of trip, come explore with me. No stress, no scripts – just real places, real stories, and maybe a rhythm or two. Licensed Prague Guide since 2005 Licensed Czech Republic & EU Guide since 2002 Graduate of Jaroslav Ježek Music Conservatory, Prague (1999) Driver’s license for cars, vans & minibuses since 1994 Let’s make your trip to Czechia unforgettable.

Karlštejn is one of my favorite castles surrounded by hills and forests close to Prague. It was built by the famous emperor Charles IV. in the middle of the 14th century to keep and protect the most important treasure of all - the crown jewels. Visit the medieval castle in beautiful scenery with its precious Chapel of the Holy Cross, where you can admire the unique collection of the original gothic paintings by the Master Theodoricus that cannot be seen anywhere else in the world. Let me tell you about the impressive details of the castle's history, the background, the main idea of this huge project, and the legends related to this interesting site. All of my tours can be fully customized just for you, so please don't hesitate to specify your needs.
