Nikola
Art historian and food lover
Nikola comes to us from the picturesque hills of Moravian Wallachia. In 2006, she moved to Prague to study art history as well as social and mass communication. Taking advantage of this education, she entered the tourist industry, where she found her passion. Her love of the history of Prague and her mastery of Czech cuisine really show through as a tour guide, especially on our best-selling Prague food tour.
“It was perfectly paced and we appreciated the level of detail and information that she shared as we walked.”
Johanka
Former microbrewer from Poland
If we had to describe our guide from Poland in one word, it would be “bubbly”. Her infectious humor will have you laughing from the beginning to the end. Johanka is known for her spot-on cooking skills, her passion for languages, and her deep knowledge of beer. She ran a microbrewery and understands the process of making and enjoying this most popular Czech beverage, which she’ll gladly share with you on her tours.
“Johanka was interesting, informative, humorous and just plain fun to be with!”
Mark
History nerd from New Orleans
Originally from New Orleans, a city world-famous for its jazz, great seafood, and warm hospitality, this self-proclaimed history nerd now calls Prague home. Mark’s extensive knowledge of the Czech past can provide you with answers to all of the questions you could possibly have. His tours are a mix of historical tales, humor and conversation, making them feel more like a relaxed stroll and less like a formal affair.
“We did a private tour of the Prague Castle with Mark. He did an awesome job getting us there, explaining the history of the city, the castle, church and grounds.”
George
Pilsen native and former teacher
George (Jirka to his Czech friends) is from Pilsen, the birthplace of Pilsner beer. This is a fact he’s more than eager to share as he walks you through the city’s rich brewing history. A seasoned traveler, Jirka loves exploring South America, where his Spanish comes in handy. He has lived in Prague since 2005 and moved from selling airline tickets to guiding. Thanks to his years as an English and geography teacher, he knows how to turn dates and names into good stories.
“Fantastic time with George, he is so sweet and welcoming.”
Kuba
History buff and NHL fan
Kuba grew up in West Bohemia and moved to Prague driven by curiosity, ambition, and a natural gift for connecting with people. He found his true passion for guiding in 2021 while leading tours at a museum dedicated to Czechoslovakia’s communist history. When he’s not guiding, this lifelong history buff, culture enthusiast, and die-hard NHL fan can be found reading, catching late-night hockey games, and constantly exploring the deep historical roots that shaped Prague.
“Kuba was a fantastic guide! He was personable, knowledgeable and taught us a lot about Czech food and Czech history.”
Jakub
Musician and luthier
Jakub is a musician and luthier. His focus as a craftsman is on the late Medieval to Classical periods, with instruments such as the viola da gamba and the viol. A big fan of Mozart, he has extensive familiarity with musical history. Beyond Czech history, he is especially fascinated by Prague’s mystical past. Ask him what he’s proudest of, though, and he’ll tell you about his wife and their daughter, who changed his life completely.
“Jakub was an excellent guide! He even sent an email after with the restaurants we visited, food we ate, and even a few recipes.”
“All of this was done with guides who were fun, knowledgeable and eager for us to love their country as they do.”
Katy
Prague-born, 20 years in maths
Born in Prague, Katy spent 20 years working with mathematics before trading it for a new passion: guiding visitors through her beautiful hometown. She adores hands-on activities, reading, drawing, walking her dog and lingering over conversations in cafés. Guiding lets Katy share her love for Prague, one story at a time. She especially enjoys bringing the city’s castles, traditions and seasonal celebrations to life for her guests.
“Katy was an absolute fabulous guide and I highly recommend her. Her knowledge of the history of the Jews in Prague, down to the tiny details was impressive.”
Guillaume
French teacher turned local
Known as Will, Guillaume is our addition from France. This former high school teacher literally absorbed the Czech culture. He quickly learned the notoriously difficult language, found the best local food, and gained extensive knowledge of beer. His insight into Czech history, combined with teaching experience, comes in handy on his tours. When he’s not guiding, he will be off practicing yoga or hiking around the Czech Republic and the surrounding countries.
“Will was phenomenal. He brought Prague to life.”
Vojta
Engineer from Ostrava, beer explorer
From the industrial city of Ostrava, Vojta arrived in Prague as an electrical engineer. He used to enjoy work-related adventures in Norway, New Zealand, Italy, and England, but the arrival of his daughter transformed his lifestyle. In his free time, Vojta engages in sports like swimming, running, and tennis, immerses himself in books, and explores new varieties of beer. On gray days, you’ll find him wandering through galleries or traveling with his daughter.
“Vojta was a fantastic guide who knows the art and science behind beer making.”
