A MUST: Old City and Jewish Quarter + Astronomical Clock! - Official Guides
We are a group of official guides of the city of Prague with years of experience in discovering both the most demanded engravers and the hidden secrets of the city that go unnoticed by the average visitor. Shortly after starting our own adventure, we managed to place ourselves and remain in the number one position of the more than 750 options of guided tours in Prague according to the opinions of the travelers themselves. We treat each traveler as if they were part of our family and we make each tour as if it was our first, with the illusion that this implies, and at the same time, as if it was the last, with the requirement that implies. We try to make each traveler take the love that we feel for this city and that every day continues to fascinate us.
