Our tour was special as it occurred on the Czech independence day. Our driver (Petr) and guide (Barbara) arrived at our hotel right on time. The Mercedes van was very new and comfortable, and in immaculate condition. Petr navigated through the city easily and got us close to the sights. Barbara led us on a great tour of the palace, St. Vitus, the basilica, and Golden lane. She provided an in-depth commentary throughout and was very patient with answering all of our questions. Barbara and Petr accommodated our requests to modify their normal tour itinerary, for example skipping the Lobkowicz palace (as we are seeing that on another day). We finished the day at the marvelous nouveau art municipal house adjacent to the powder tower. Thank you Barbara and Petr for showing us all the magnificent sights.
