Hello! I recently was given two amazing gifts to virtually tour the city and castle of Prague. The first tour was with Martin and the second was with Mark. Both are extremely charming, delightfully brilliant historians that made for an incredibly awesome gift! Truly loved the hour tour that I took with each tour guide and am already scheduling future tours. I hope to always get either Martin or Mark as they made the experience an inspiring, fun-spirited and engaging event!626kristil

My host Michaela was amazing and very funny. I enjoyed virtually taking a beautiful walk with her! She explained all the buildings and things on the street as she walked. I enjoyed seeing a different way of life.

Mark managed to pack a huge range of history from the Middle Ages right up until a few months ago into a very entertaining, informative, and beautiful hour. Within a few blocks radius we went from a very old and very complex clock with a figure of death tolling the hours, to one of Mozart’s favorite opera houses to a corona virus pastry from a cubist coffee shop. He literally showed me elements of the city that were buried in plain sight that would have escaped me had I tried this visit on my own. This, added to his personal experiences as an American living in Prague really made the city come to life.90petrg

Míša took us out of the city center by foot and Metro to two local Christmas markets. It was so authentic! The snacks were amazing- mead, gluhwein, and Christmas cookies. She was terrific, prepared and fun. As we strolled around 3 markets, we chatted about holiday traditions of Prague and the Czech Republic including the fortune telling methods to predict your new year. The most fun that brought the kid out in me was lighting sparklers and singing Christmas carols together. I loved the whole morning. Thank you Míša!!!Jana_N

I took their virtual Alchemy Prague tour and had a fantastic time. Guillaume was a fantastic storyteller. I'm not someone who's generally into scary stories, or mysticism, but walking around Prague at night was an amazing backdrop to his stories about uncanny occurrences and natural scientists doing different experiments. He did a great job of including us in the tour, it felt like we were there!
