Michal was a great tour guide and a very caring person. He gave great insights on the culture and history of Cesky Krumlov, and was really accommodating when we wanted to stay a bit longer during the end to walk around the town. He was open to other questions relating to the town and was very knowledgeable. He also offered us a chance to visit a brewery and try a local beer. We had a wonderful private tour with Michal who went above and beyond. We would 100% recommend this tour with Michal.
The tour was wonderful. It was beautiful. The town was lovely. Our tour guide was exceptional. He was very knowledgeable and took his time explaining everything. He gave us free time to explore on our. Just a wonderful day.

Petr was an excellent guide to chesky krumlov. We had a fantastic trip and he made the trip for my family and I even better. I highly recommend him
Michel was an absolutely awesome and engaging tour guide! From the very beginning, he made everyone feel comfortable and welcomed. He was incredibly easy to talk to, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience both fun and informative. The tour was very well organized, and you could tell he truly cared about making sure everyone had a great time and learned a lot throughout the day. The transportation was also excellent — the van was spacious, clean, and very comfortable, which made the travel relaxing and enjoyable. Český Krumlov itself was absolutely breathtaking and truly felt like stepping straight into a fairytale. Every street, building, and view was stunning. This city is an absolute must-see if you are visiting the Czech Republic. I would 100% recommend this tour to anyone and everyone. Between the incredible destination and Michel’s outstanding guidance, it was easily one of the highlights of our trip!
This private excursion for 6 of us was everything that we had dreamed of and more! Our guide was super informative and flexible. When we wanted to stay longer in Cesky Krumlov and forgo another stop, he made it happen. The cute historic restaurant at which we had luch by the river was just perfect! He even found a bakery for us when we stopped in Pisek to view the oldest bridge in the country. It was a perfect day!
This tour was one of the highlights of our entire trip. Český Krumlov is stunning — from the fairytale-like castle to the winding streets, the breathtaking views, the delicious local food, and the charming Christmas market, every part of the town felt magical. Our guide, Michal, made the experience unforgettable. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and customized the day exactly to our interests. The itinerary was perfectly paced, and we never felt rushed. Lunch and snacks were great, and the private transport made everything easy and relaxing. If you’re visiting Prague, this tour is an absolute must. It’s the perfect way to explore Český Krumlov with a guide who genuinely loves what he does. 10/10 — highly recommend!
This was our second day trip with Michal in as many days. I highly recommend booking with him, he provides a wealth of knowledge and always tailors his trips to your preference. We hope to come back and will absolutely book another day trip with Michal if we do!
Our driver/guide, Michal was absolutely wonderful. We had a relaxing drive out to Cesky Krumlov, while Michal described some of the sites we passed as well a brief education of the significance and history. The castle and the grounds were beautiful followed by a traditional lunch at a restaurant in a medievil house. We had some time on our own to explore this enchanting little village before heading to our next stop. For us, it was a visit to the fairy tale castle of Karlstejn. Michal was highly knowable and we enjoyed hearing about the history of the Czech Republic. We would highly recommend this trip for couples or for families.
We had a fantastic day with Michal! He picked us up at our hotel in a beautiful mercedes van, delighted us with interesting stories and facts about his country during our 2 hour drive, and then continued with a terrific history lesson during our visit in Cesky Krumlov. He had a wonderful rustic lunch spot picked out where we dined right beside the river. Bonus side trips on the way back to Prague! Very knowledgeable , fun, reliable. Thank you Michal!
