Martha – United States

Argel is thoroughly knowledgeable about Kafka’s life in Prague, his family, his loves, his difficulties, and his writing. Argyll seems to have read everything about Kafka from letters to novels to fragments to biographies. It was a pleasure to walk the streets with him and envision Kafka’s world.

Pauline – Malta

Our guide Argel was amazing . His knowledge of Kafka’s life and the history of Prague at this time was incredible . Argel’s passion for the subject kept us fully engaged for the whole tour . I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Prague , even those with little knowledge of Kafka.
