Dear Jitka,

    I want to thank you for providing us with Jana for our Grand
 Tour Deluxe in Prague.    My parents and I have visited Italy,
 Greece, France, Turkey, Switzerland, Germany, and Austria.  Out of
 all the tour guides we have experienced, Jana has been the best.
 She is extremely knowledgeable about Prague and made us very
 comfortable in Prague.  Her ability to express herself in the
 English language is remarkable.  Her historical knowledge about
 Prague is  fantastic.   Thanks again for providing our family with
 such a beautiful guide and tour.  Jana’s tour was one of the
 highlights of our European trip.
            

      Sincerely, Dr. Albert Alba

 

 
Our company was honoured to guide Mr. Gingrich on 26.6.2008 and again in the end of the tour our company was honoured second time, while the assistant admitted that it was after long long time when Mr. Gingrich didn't need to correct the dates!

Dear Jitka,
 
after our really beautiful weekend in Prague, I like to thank you for the great events, you organized for us. The members of the beer-tour and the designer-tour were totally happy, about the tour and the great guides. The evening at folklore garden was also great fun. Although the music was too loud, we passed a great time with the dancings and naturally the group was pleased, when someone of them has to dance with the broom, etc. The meal was also very tasty, we get the fish meals and the vegetarian meal without any problems. Also the ghost tour was fun. Unfortunately the groups were to big to become really frightend, but we enjoyed the stories and the top event of the tour was, when the "Turkish" lost his trouser, while passing the group. Surely that isn't the main sense of the ghost tour, but the most important thing was, that the group loved it, isn't it?
 
So thank you very much, also in the name of the whole group and I am sure that most of us will return to Prague in the next years.
 
Yours
 
Bärbel

Dear Jitka,
Last saturday we decided to go on one of your tours `Pubs of the old Town' our guide was Yaroslav. We were a party of four and had a fantastic time, the pubs chosen were excellent but more than this we all were so grateful for Yaroslav who was an amazing guide. I know that he was quite new to the walks and was even a little bit nervous when we started but I very much doubt that our night would have been as good without him. We went to some fantastic places and desite a few hiccups along the way, not due to our guide I hasten to say, we had a great night in Prague. Thank you for the walk and thank you for Yaroslav, he is worth his weight in gold.
Prague is without doubt the most beautiful city I have ever visited and I have visited many, I just thought that you may like to know that our visit was enhanced greatly by booking this walk with your company. I hope that many other visitors to your beautiful city take advantage of your fantastic walks.
Thank you again to you and please relay mine and our groups thanks to Yaroslav, he is a star.
Very best wishes from England
Len and Margaret Bradshaw

Dear Jitka

You probably do not remember me but I am the tall English girl who studied politics. You took me on the communism walk on my own. I am just writing to say a big thank you for your walk, I really enjoyed it. I think Joseph - your guide - is such an inspirational man, I learnt so much from your walk and enjoyed telling my parents all about it!

Prague is such a beautiful city and I loved my holiday there!

Best wishes,

Selina Ferwick

Hi There,
My name is Michael Interisano, from Calgary, Alberta Canada.  My wife Bari and I went on one of your English pub walks in Prague this past Sept. and had a great time.  We would like to thank Tom (our guide) for a very entertaining, fun and educational night of beer, food and conversation.  I wanted to send this photo of our fun night earlier, but was very busy with my business when we returned from your beautiful country.  Bari and I cycled from Prague to Vienna and enjoyed our route and the villages we visited while making our way to Vienna...
 
Ciao,
Michael
 

 
I am writing to say how much my partner and I enjoyed the Communism Walk starting at 2.00pm Friday October 13th. 2006. We were very sorry we had to leave the walk in a rush as it was reaching its conclusion in Wenceslas Square as we had a plane to catch!
Please convey my apologies and thanks to the gentleman who led our walk. It was a most illuminating experience made all  the more interesting by the lively account of his actual experiences.

It's been a while but in march 2004 I organised with fellow students a trip to Prague. We were all filmstudents back then so I was looking for a company that could organise a tour in Prague that took us along locations where famous film were shot. A second criteria was the fact that the guide had to have some interesting things to tell. It al worked fantastic. The guide took us along locations in Prague where movies like Mission Impossible 1, The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Bad Company, The Bourne Identity en Blade 2 were shot. The guide was well informed, brought great photos with her and had fun 'behind the scenes' stories to tell.
You, as the organisation of Prague Walks, understood very well that we weren't looking for a regular tour were we would learn about this king that did some very important things in day no one hardly remembers or learn about a church that is 200 years old.
Next year, in the first weekend of march I'm going to be in Prague again. This time with friends from Gotcha! Cinema were we all work. So it seemed a great idea to me to do the 'filmtour' again.
I would love to hear from you again. Could you keep me posted?

English Newspapers, Daily Telegraph, Pubs of the Old Town - great experience!

Our tour of Prague Castle and the Modern Walk was truly first class. Both
guides, Eva and Joseph, were extremely intelligent and fun. Their personal
backgrounds and experiences contributed to their knowledge and the
information shared to our small group. That personal touch makes the
experience that much more enlightening. We feel so lucky to have gotten them
as our guides and want to thank them both for making our visit so memorable.
We will definitely recommend your company to friends.

Sincerely,

I just wanted you to know how much Rollin and I enjoyed our visit to Prague and, particularly, meeting Jana Pehe. Jana made our visit very memorable. We could not have asked for a better guide. She was very knowledgeable, pleasant, easy to understand and seemed to know what would be of interest to us. Be assured that, whenever the opportunity arises, we will tell our friends of our visit and of your company.
Sincerely,

My wife and I went on two of your walks in Prague and enjoyed them very much.
Please say thank you to Joseph for the incredible length of time he gave us on the Architecture tour and the amount of information he had. We were the only two people on his tour on Tuesday afternoon (March 1st) and our names are Chris & Dot and we are English.
On the Wednesday (March 2nd) we took the 'Jewish Quarter and Old Town' tour with Oria (maybe the spelling is completely wrong) who is a masters Student who visited England recently. We were on the walk with 7 Americans. Please thank her for an excellent walk and wish her good luck with her degree.

I had the great pleasure of taking several of you walk recently.
On September 23, 2005, I took the Grand Walk De Lux. The guide was a wonderful young lady, a student, that was knowledgeable, friendly and entertaining. I wish that I had asked for her email address!
The food was tasty and plentiful. A great value.
On September 24, 2005, I took the Modern Walk-Life in Communism, Life Today, Velvet Revolution Tour. The tour guide, an older gentlemen, brought the tour to life--he even had a picture of himself as a child with his father and the Soviet Liberators in the Second World War era! He was very personable, knowledgeable and eager to answer all of my questions.
I found the Prague Walks experience to be delightful - a great learning experience! I would recommend Prague Walks to any traveler!
