Clear instructions for meeting sent. The guide was excellent and relayed many interesting facts. In addition she pointed out other details about the history of Prague/ buildings etc as we walked around. This tour gave me a good basis to return the following day to visit the Jewish Museum. I would definitely recommend this tour.

The tour was one of the best I have had yet. We were really lucky to be just the two people on the tour with the guide (I forgot the name of the guide). I recommend the guide very highly. it was a very interesting and informative tour. the guide had the way of explaining the story in a way where he can put the history to life. Dont miss this tour.

Maria was absolutely fab - extremely knowledgeable and very lovely. Our tour was on a Friday morning in Jan and it was just myself and my partner on the tour so we got the full experience. Maria also gave us some great recommendations for food & drinks away from the tourist traps! Would 100% recommend. The tour gave us the right amount of time to see the Jewish quarter and old town.
