Exceptional tour & experience - My husband & I braved the blustery weather with Jan & others in the week that Czech Republic went from 70 degrees to low 30s. (It will be back to 70 once we leave.)
Being cold was miserable but his knowledge & narrative of a town he so clearly loves warmed our hearts & filled us with incredible sights & insights too. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Jan & highly recommend this very charming & informative tour.

Great tour - Jan was a great tour guide. Had some good stories. We only had a couple of hours, and we were group and a little late but he was able to accommodate us.

A good walking tour of CK - A good tour, informative and sprinkled with humour. We did the castle tour earlier with Mathew and he was excellent, hence the tour with Jan was much easier as the castle tour also partly covers the town of CK. Jan is easy going and open to questions / suggestions / interaction.

Tourist trap - NOT FREE - Very misleading name - FREE.. it is not free. You are expected to pay. First thing they will tell you is that you should pay. People book it through their web page and then they will find out it is not free when they get there. Classic scam.
