Hi, I'm Jan. I was born and raised in Prague in June 1980, nine and a half years before we returned to our FREEDOM. I've been a certified tour guide in Prague and the Czech Republic since 2015 and have more than 20 years of experience in the hospitality business. Always smiling, flexible, and consistently delivering a friendly atmosphere and quality service. Come and discover the unexpected Prague in the footsteps of Charles IV. , Maria Theresa, Nazis, Communists, and Franz Kafka through medieval streets, cobblestone bridges, gothic towers, and breathtaking parks full of hidden treasures. I know all the best places to see in Prague, Czech Republic - famous tourist spots and hidden gems only locals know. I specialize in private tours and plan custom itineraries tailored to your interests while sharing my best secrets about our magical city and country. A quality local guide will always add the culture, history, personal experiences, and stories. Life and traveling are about places and stories. I want to share with you how my American family (which I never knew existed before) found me in 2008 through Facebook. How we met, what we learned about each other, the family roots and history, and how the lifestyle changed during the communism for my ancestors regarding human rights, business, etc. Being a fully certified guide with me, you will benefit from the fast-track entrances to see Prague Castle, Old Town Hall Tower, Municipal House, National Museum, National Opera, National Theatre, etc. Part of the magic of private guiding is bringing you to places you wouldn't find on your own and sharing my insider knowledge. I'm always scouting for the best markets, restaurants, cafes, bakeries, taverns, beer, wine, and coffee shops. I'm also a domestic and international transportation specialist, and I can help you get around comfortably and quickly between the Czech Republic, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia. When I drive you, we usually stop somewhere in the middle to enjoy authentic Czech culture, beer or wine, and of course, real Bohemian or Moravian food. I am immensely passionate about local food, beer, and wine, along with art and history, especially when sharing them in my favorite hidden spots. I aim to deliver you an exceptional and quality EXPERIENCE, your ideal TRIP, because that is what you will remember forever, and that's what matters. If your goal is the same, let's get in touch and chat about what I can do FOR YOU! While actively working as a tourist guide, I write electronic music and mix music records on the radio or in the club. I like architecture and photography and love sports, and, of course, I love to travel. As a dedicated traveler, I respect foreigners' passion, needs, and interests by celebrating the discovery of a new place while also catering to the practical demands of the day. I've long prioritized travel in my personal life and have extensively explored the US, Canada, Southeast Asia, and most European countries. It is unspeakably fulfilling to experience a different culture firsthand and face to face. My wife is an American CPA, so thanks to our life between Prague and Miami, I understand both Czech culture and what American travelers value most. I can not wait to show you around our more than a thousand years old history, traditions, architectural and heritage diversity, art, monuments and memorials, beautiful nature, local gastronomy, beers, wines, and the hospitality of our people. Even though you came here with Avalon, Emerald, Tauck, G Adventures, Princess Cruises, or Viking Cruises, you might skip the extensive group city tour. Hire a licensed local tour guide to enjoy the custom private city tour. Pickups include FREE wait time. I can arrange the whole package for several days for you too. Contact me today to start planning your dream vacation. I will be happy to respond to all your questions and solve all your needs and interests concerning your budget, wherever you are or need to be. P. S. Do you want to ensure you have hired the right person? 
I am honored to have the trust and guest satisfaction! I graduated from sports gymnasium high school in 1999. After I studied the 1-year program in the language school Akcent in Prague. Since 2000 I work in the hotel business. Since 2015 I work as a licensed tour guide in Prague and the Czech Republic.

Jan is an amazing person and a fantastic guide! He was informative and organized! He arrived on time at our hotel with his van which was pristine and very comfortable! He gave us an overview of the day and agenda! We had a great day of seeing the beautiful city of Prague and learned an incredible amount of history. Although, he had a small mishap and had to stop our tour, he first offered to get us an Uber to a beautiful local restaurant for lunch. And spent extra time with us to complete our tour! He is kind and very personable! Our group of 5, enjoyed the day so much we planned another guided trip with him. He has a great sense of humor and is mischievous in ver enjoyable way. His command of English is fantastic! Thank you Jan, we loved our time with you!

Jan was amazing! He took our tour last minute and we only had one day in Prague and boy, did we make the most of it!!! He introduced us to the priest at the Infant of Prague church and we had our statues blessed (what a treat) ! We had a beautiful lunch, saw the changing of the guard, Prague Castle, the astronomical clock, drove all around, and he did his best to make us comfortable in the horrible heat, we saw and did SO much!! The street art is SO great and the humor of the people with the John Lennon wall, we loved it! Thanks for the honest information on culture, economy, life and communism, Jan. It was so interesting talking with you! Wish he had more time for the glass factory and craftsmen, synagogues and such. We did get to Kafka's house and Mucha, Imperial and WWII history...There is just so much .... Thanks again and we look forward to seeing you with our husbands next trip ! Come and see us in the Pacific Northwest, Jan! -- Terri & Laura

We enjoyed our day with Jan so much we booked a second full day! He grew up in Prague and is so knowledgeable about everything in and around the area. Prague exceeded all our expectations and thanks to Jan we got to experience so many highlights. Jan has all the inside information, the best parking places, the best lunch spots, and even the guaranteed front row viewing of the changing of the guard. Jan lined up a very special inside tour of the Church of Our Lady Victorious where the Infant of Prague is located. Don't miss this very holy place in the Old town. There is so much to see and we want to come back someday to discover more hidden gems in Prague. We will always recommend Jan to our friends and family heading to this special city. Thanks for making our trip so special Jan.

Jan was great to work with and definitely one of the highlights of our stay in Prague! We decided to take a private tour with Jan as we had some in our group not able to walk long distances. He picked us up at our hotel with a roomy and well-kept van that was very comfortable and got through many narrow streets in Prague. He had great suggestions to sights and was accommodating to everyone in our group. Another plus is he speaks great English and we had no problems with communication. If you are searching for a guide do not hesitate to hire Jan.

Jan picked us up in a very comfortable van and we proceeded to tour the city for the next several hours. Born in Prague, Jan was knowledgeable and able to personalize our tour with history and personal insights. A special treat was a visit to a church where we met and spoke with the priest. Prague is a beautiful city and Jan made it a special place for all of us. He took care to assure that our expectations were met--we highly recommend this tour. We definitely made a new friend!
