First Peter is a fantastic guide!!! My wife and I are not Jewish but wanted to know more of the history of the Jewish community and quarter in Prague. Everything was explained in such a story telling comfortable manner that made us feel so engaged so even though we were with a lovely Jewish family we at no point felt that things were aimed more at them. In fact they learned things as well! The history of the 5 synagogues were fascinating and in some cases heart breaking due to the persecution during WW2. This is one of the most interesting and best walking tours I’ve been on and I’d highly highly recommend it especially if Peter is the one doing the tour. Thank you Peter

The whole tour was so informative and interesting, you literally didn't know what to look at next! We were in a small group so there was only 4 of us including tour guide, who was absolutely amazing. She was able to answer any questions we had and explained everything in so much detail. Highly recommended this tour, the emotions you feel stay with you throughout

With children aged 8 and 10, plan time to do the gardens (long journeys between places, pee breaks, lunch breaks, and children who drag their paws at some point). The visit to the castle was long for my children, they quickly dropped out despite the children's audio guide.

A great tour provides full orientation and informative history of old Prague , covering all main sites - our Guide - Danuse was very informative, considered guests needs and answered all questions - thank you for an enjoyable day .

Our guide was excellent. Very knowledgeable. She made an effort to make sure we were comfortable. Took stops in any shops we wanted. She was very nice and totally caters to what you want to do.
