Absolutely a wonderful experience. We had signed up for the tour through our hotel (Dominica) a month ago, they had us set up for the next day after our arrival. Pickup was exactly on time at the hotel and we were escorted to the Old Town Square for Bus pickup.
The bus took us to Prague Castle to start the tour where were broken into language groups. Our guide and escort for the day was George. While the kickoff in the drizzle and fog was uneventful, George was an incredible guide. He was able to provide a graduate level seminar on Prague, Czech, Central European and world history from Roman Empire until today. He left no subject untouched and no question unanswered. All woven into the stories on the 36 sites we visited, a timely boat trip, great atmospheric lunch at U Pavouka’s, and a wrap up at the Franz Kafka House.
If this is your first time to Prague such as ours, or if you’ve just been a casual visitor, find or make the time for this tour. It goes far beyond a look at the city. I think it helps to understand some of how the Czech Republic came to be and the historical fabric of Prague and the Republic.
Thank you George for your incredible effort and our fellow travelers made it a great day.
