Our group of 4, 2 couples, took a half day trip with Honza and couldn't have had a better time. Honza was prompt, intelligent, engaging, patient, well versed in Czech history, and a super Host. His background in Humanitarian work and skills with English kept conversation going for hours. The trip in his new VW van was scenic and easy from Prague and we loved the village and Castle. Highly recommended trip to get outside Prague and see some beautiful Historic sights. Go!

We originally arranged for two short, guided tours with Jana. Jana assigned us Michael Stanislav. Our flight to Prague was delayed and we ended up having one full day touring the wonderful city of Prague with Michael. Michael was knowledgeable, professional and the tour was excellent. I highly recommend Jana and Prague Personal Guide.
