Polina K.
Hello, It is nice to e-meet you here, my name is Polina and I am a professional tour guide and concierge with more than 10 years experience in customer service. They say that the most valuable thing that we bring back from travels is our memories. You might forget the dates, names and cafeteries you spent your time in, but you will always remember the kind gesture of the waiter who was serving your morning coffee or a smiley lady at the local market who admired the way you tried to greet her in her mother language. Sweet memories of people who surrounded us during our trip create the experience we will be sharing with our beloved ones back home. And that's why it is so important to find the right guide for your journey. I often hear the feedback from my guests: “It is obvious that you are in love with your job”. And they are absolutely right. I am an energetic, funny, vibrant guide who does not switch on “the boredom mode” and tries to do her best to make it special for every single guest of hers. If you are looking for someone who will make your trip special and memorable, don't hesitate to contact me. I would be happy to scroll with you around magical Prague. With warmest regards, Your guide, Polina

Petr M.
My name is Petr and I am a native Praguer. I have spent in this beuatiful city my entire life. I have studied at Charles University, the program Social Studies (history, psychology, sociology and political science). Already during my studies I began working as a tourguide and just fell in love with this job that much, that I am doing it till present days. I also have some military experience and well oriented in religious and political problemacy - not only regarding Czechia and Czech history. My main focuses as of a tourguide are: political, miltary and religious (aspects of) history and present days. Besides I strictly get sticked to the facts (since being a Czech ;-) I always accompany ny tours with a traditional Czech humour, stating some funny facts, telling some cool Czech jokes etc. I rather prefer in informal style of guiding - considering and treating travelers more like friends than just "clinets/customers". I am open-minded , positive, humorous, but dedicated to the facts at the same time. My asset and competition edge is providing travelers with some little/leeser known facts which they won´t find in bedekers. I am looking forward to meet you in Prague! ;-)

Our original guide Miriam was ill and couldn’t do the tour, but she arranged to have her colleague Bety guide the tour for us. Bety was very knowledgeable and gave us a thorough tour of the history of the area. It was a poignant experience for us.

VIP Strahov Library entry and hidden gem garden
“Great tour modified by Miriam to cater to our desires.”
Miriam used the Library & Hidden Neighborhood tour as a basis for a very personal experience. Communication with her eliminated going to spots we had been to in the days prior on other tours. Miriam became sick and arranged for Alzbeta to do our tour on a day's notice. She was one of the few licensed people that can get access into the restricted areas of Strahov library. Alzbeta was the most knowledgeable guide I've encountered in many years. She was also very personable, and we truly enjoyed the time spent. Some guides tend to recite a presentation, but Alzbeta shared stories with plenty of interaction. Highly recommend working with Miriam for a tour and visiting the inside of the Strahov library.

Spring (April to June) and Autumn (September to October) months are generally seen as the best time to visit Prague because of the lower tourist crowds and pleasant weather (9-16°C in Spring and 14-9°C in Autumn).
