PLEASE, MESSAGE ME THE DATE AND THE TOUR YOU WANT TO DO BEFORE YOU MAKE THE BOOKING, SO I CAN DOUBLE-CHECK MY AVAILABILITY. THANK YOU. When I was born, my country was called Czechoslovakia. Several years later, a decision has been made to separate the country in two, which is known as the Czech Republic and Slovakia today. I and my family ended up in the Slovakian part. However, I feel being Czech the very same way as being Slovakian - the Czechoslovakian. Since I remember, my dream was to study in Prague, at the famous Charles University. My dream came true and I've been living in this amazing city for more than 15 years now. Studies gave me a great opportunity to understand the world's history, to travel, to learn new languages and to do the best job in the world - to start my work as a tour guide! I have years of experience in guiding various kinds of tours and groups. Hence, I consider private tours as the best way to explore the city. There is nobody else to limit you, you can ask anything and there is always time to see some hidden gems, to escape from the crowds, to experience something beyond the ordinary. My goal is to show you how amazing Prague and the whole Czech Republic is. There are so many great people and many more stories that shaped the Czech nation through centuries, and all of them make our country great. It is impossible to cover it at once, but I can promise you that I'll try to make the most of your visit. Thank you for considering me as your guide and I hope to meet you in person on one of my tours. Apart from guiding, I love to travel, discover new cultures and see the sights where history happened. A relatively still small amount of those places I have visited so far, however, there's still the rest of the world on my bucket list.

Overview of your Prague tour

PLEASE, MESSAGE ME BEFORE YOU BOOK THE TOUR TO MAKE SURE OF MY AVAILABILITY. THANK YOU The history of the Ghetto is dated back even further to the 13th century, when Jews of Prague were ordered to vacate their homes and settle in this area. The original ghetto did not survive, what we can visit today is its 20th century "reconstruction". Even most of the buildings were replaced by the new ones, we can still admire some of those "ancient" ones. Above all they rank among the most beautiful and oldest in all Europe.
