Hands down just amazing!!! From the moment I booked the communication with the Tour company was outstanding. Peter(the driver) picked me up at the airport and we drove to meet Kevin (the tour guide) at the castle. They both took the time to answer all my questions and explained the rich history of Prague. The tour was truly tailored for me (including the bathroom runs ????). I 100% recommend Kevin and Peter. I was able to see alot in the little time I had available. So if you have limited time this is the way to go. One last thing as a solo female traveler safety is always a concern of mine, I felt safe at all times. P.S. Viator. Peter and Kevin are a power team!

Eszter was kind enough to add a time to accomodate an evening tour for us. We were able to see and hear about the history of the Castle before strolling through the streets and experiencing the charm and ambiance as the sun went down. We arrived at the perfect overlook just minutes before the exterior lighting on the Castle turned on for the evening. She gave us fantastic meal recommendations and a special gift to remember Chesky Krumlov. We enjoyed and recommend her tour.

I wanted to visit Kutna Hora to see St. Barbara's and the Bone Chapel. Michaela was a great guide! Arranging the trip was a breeze, she picked me up at my hotel, and we were off. Her English is great and was able to provide a lot of interesting information about Prague, Kutna Hora, the Czech Republic and its history while driving to Kutna Hora. I think having a driver/guide was great because Michaela was able to drive to each location and parking was relatively easy. She is very knowledgeable and provided a lot of details that I would otherwise have missed. I would highly recommend this tour!

Visit the birth city of the (Original) Budweiser beer, learn about a typical bohemian medieval town, the history of a bi-national city tormented by wars, religious differences and the second world war. Walk on the medieval streets, the biggest (almost perfect) square of the Czech republic, enjoy a city on an island, surviving fires, floods and invasions. As a foreigner living here, I can show you what makes a university town exciting, where you can taste the best original Czech Budweiser beer, and what makes cabbage and dumplings the national food of the Czech republic.

We were going to be in Cesky Krumlov for just 21 hours, leaving at 3pm the following day. So I contacted Karolina of Krumlov Tours and she suggested a 2-hour private walking tour of the town starting at 9.30am. The previous evening it snowed and we woke up to a magical setting. Our tour guide was Nikki, bubbly and full of fun and she was brilliant. She took us to places that we would never have found on our own, gave us all the history of the town, stories about certain areas and explained everything with a great depth of knowledge. We even saw a live bear!!!! I was so sorry when our time was up. I would recommend this tour to anyone lucky enough to find themselves in Cesky Krumlov. It's a 3-hour bus ride from Prague, but definietly worth it.
