Born in a small city close to Karlovy Vary, I always dreamed about exploring the world, speaking several languages and meeting different people. When I was 19, I moved to Prague and became a tour guide in Czech and German languages but my english was not good enough so I took some lessons and then spent a year in the US, one of my biggest dreams. Back in Prague, I started to guide in english but I wanted to learn more languages. So I left and spent 6 months in Mallorca island where I worked hard to learn spanish. Then I came back to Prague, able to guide in four languages and starting my own company as an independant tour guide. Since 6 years now, I have been organizing fun and original guided tours for visitors from all around the world, and it had been a wonderful experience so far. Also a singer during my free time, I sing and compose in a gospel choir and a gypsy group. Passionate about my job, I love showing the places where locals live, especially Vinohrady, my favorite neighborhood where you can eat the best pastries, hear music at every corner, and find an art gallery on every square. Let me show you the real Prague, its churches, palaces, history and unique artistic atmosphere!
