When something travel-related is recommended by Rick Steves, one expects it to be good. Katerina Svobodova was nothing short of excellent: she oriented us to Praha, and, learning of our interests, made this great city's history relevant and interesting to us; she also gave us fantastic suggestions about where to go and what to do for the rest of our time there. Her passion and knowledge are obvious, but what makes her one of the best in her field is her ability to read her guests well and adapt content and delivery accordingly: we had her for eight hours and there was not a moment when we felt bored or that it was getting monotonous or pointless. Hiring a guide can often be an expensive mistake, but if you can find someone like Katerina Svobodova, it will be the best travel investment you make!

Fantastic tour! We found PragueWalker in the Rick Steve's travel guide and had Katerina as our guide. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the history and culture of Prague, but was also able to provide first hand experiences of the changes the country has been through in her lifetime- living under communist rule as a child, the Velvet Revolution, joining the EU, all the way through how the city is recovering once EU borders reopened. The tour was personalized both in what we asked to include in the tour (an overview of the city with some additional details), as well as spoken by a person who loves their city. She was even great at answering any questions my son asked, and when we were done, she gave recommendations for follow up activities based on our interests and places to eat. We usually do an overview tour when we travel to a new city, but the personalization PragueWalker can do as a private tour was so much better than any of the group tours we have done!

We enjoyed wonderful touring with Prague Walker during our 5 day visit to Prague in July. We had previously scheduled this tour for 2020 but ..... :) Planning our tours with Katerina (the owner) was very easy and she was very helpful and accommodating to our requests. Tereza was our tour guide during our two 1/2 day city tours as well as our fascinating "road trip" to the charming city of Cesky Krumov which we highly recommend. Tereza was a fantastic guide providing detailed descriptions of the city and its deep-rooted history. Coming from AZ and its associated "hellish" weather in the summer, we had fantastic weather during our visit which added to the overall experience visiting Prague. If you are visiting Prague, you cannot go wrong using Prague Walker.

We have travelled to Prague a number of times and Katerina is hands down one of the best guides in Prague! She is so knowledgeable about her homeland and is so happy to share her personal experiences in the context of locations of interest all while being interesting. I have been with many guides who, while extremely passionate and knowledgeable, can go on a little. Katerina has mastered the balance of keeping her party interested all with good humour and personal anecdotes.
She will also go out of her way to personalise an experience and definitely knows how to cater to an audience.
Would highly recommend for all types of people, from couples to families with children and groups!!

Katka met us at our hotel. She was on time, warm and engaging. She began by telling us some great historical facts about Prague and the Czech Republic in general. Then we set out walking (some of the time we took the trams) and we saw Prague Castle, Old Town Square, the Charles Bridge, and St. Vitus Cathedral. The highlight was the Astronomical Clock, which we were able to watch the figures dance as the clock struck on the hour. Katka is a true professional who knows her city and enjoys what she does. we can't thank her enough or recommend her more highly.

Katerina is so enthusiastic and knowledgeable about all things in Prague and Czechia. She is an historian and anthropologist and, adding her personal experiences, really brings it all to life. We did two half day tours, one day focused on the Castle complex and Lesser Town and the second day on the Jewish Quarter, Old Town and New Town. It was very informative and we learned so much about the history of this beautiful city. We were glad to have a private tour guide instead being part of the large groups that we saw as we walked. We highly recommend Katerina and Prague Walker.

Just returned from a 23 day European vacation and by far one if not the highlight was the three+ days we spent touring Prague and Pilsen with a very talented Katerina Svobodova. We arranged the details, for the most part, with Katka prior to arriving as to what we were interested in seeing and doing and she adapted our tours exactly to our liking. Well spoken and easy to understand she made the tours seamless. We stopped for rest or food when we needed, she taught us the public transportation system so we could easily traverse the city on our own if we chose and her knowledge of the history of Prague and the Chech Republic was astounding. She speaks many languages and is just such a pleasant person to be around making us feel so comfortable in our new surroundings. We would highly recommend PragueWalker and Katerina if you are lucky enough to visit the charming city of Prague.

Our experience with Prague Walkers was virtually perfect. Martina, our guide, was charming and very knowledgeable. She shaped our tours (two consecutive half days) so that they matched our interests and capabilities. She was completely flexible in making seamless adjustments in our itinerary on the fly. We felt throughout that we were touring Prague with an old friend. We highly recommend her and Prague Walkers.

Wonderful, memorable tour of Castle Town and Prague Castle. I was most fortunate to have Katerina Svobodova as my personal guide. She is so incredibly knowledgeable but also friendly and delightful to be with. Far exceeded my expectations. The tour was the highlight of a trip that had many highlights. Prague is an incredible city--even more beautiful and interesting than I imagined.
I very highly recommend Prague Walker. Not only was Katerina outstanding, but every aspect of booking the tour was thoroughly professional: Quick confirmation emails, thorough and accurate descriptions of what to expect, prices and payment methods clearly laid out, timely pick up at my hotel lobby. A must if you travel Prague, which itself is a must!

Katya led my wife and I on a wonderful all day walking tour of Prague in advance of the beginning of a river cruise tour. After hearing the details of what we would be covering the next day on our "official" tour, Katya created a great itinerary that incorporated some of our suggestions from reading guidebooks but also included fun and offbeat locations that only a local would know. She even adjusted the itinerary on the fly when she identified things we enjoyed along the way. Impressive knowledge of history and architectue, conveyed coherently in English. Katya helped us fall in love with her adopted home. She also graciously took pictures along the tour.

We have a mixed group of English speakers and German only. Does the guide know German?

Most guides are polyglots. Just let PW know your requirements. They will accommodate if at all possible. They used to put brief guide bios on the website, if they still do, just take a look at their quals- impressive!
