Awesome Historical Experience - Very knowledgeable guide who provided a very informative personalised tour. Martina was easy to deal with and went out of her way to ensure that I had a tour packed with many highlights. I will definitely be doing another tour with her in the future. It was certainly worth every cent. Awesome

Great guide, great tour, great memories - I went with a group of friends, one of whom has previously been to Prague and had enthusiastically spoke about what a great guide Martina is, and he's absolutely right. Martina's an enthusiastic, engaging, and knowledgeable guide who's very passionate about the history of Prague and Operation Anthropoid. You'll have fun while learning a lot about an incredible moment in Word War II/Prague history. Highly recommended, and already thinking about our next visit to Prague where we will no doubt book another tour with Martina's company.

Great tour and awesome guide. - Again. Martina delivered a great tour. We opted for the Operation Anthropoid. I’d recommend watching the film if you decide to go. Anyway it was great way to spend several hours in Prague and learn about this incredible piece of history. I honestly had no idea of the incredible bravery that each and every one of these men carried out. Truly humbling. Martina was extremely knowledgeable on the history and I would not hesitate to recommend her service. Thank you so much. We enjoyed the drink afterwards and look forward to seeing you in the future. Cheers

On the path of Operation Anthropid with Martina - What a day. We were collected from our hotel by Martina and her trusty Trabant 601. The day was spent at various sites around Praha with Martina explaining the importance of each location and the critical part they played in the Anthropid Operation, the aftermath and the Nazi reprisals. Martina's knowledge about the operation and the passion she displays in imparting this knowledge makes this tour very special and not to be missed. Her knowledge is only surpassed by her humour and irreverence. I cannot imagine doing to tour with someone else. The bonus was driving around Praha in "Paris", Martina's Trabant that I was fortunate to drive. A simply fantastic day. Děkuji Martina. Vychutnejte si Vegimite

Anthropoid tour wonderful experience - My daughter went on the Anthropoid tour with Martina recently. It was a fantastic experience into Prague's WWII history and modern Czech resistance. Martina, is a fantastic host and so knowledgeable and passionate about the subject whilst driving her beloved Trabant (I want one) to some unusual parts of the city, not seen on any other tours. She brought to life the stories of Czech heroes and the brave people who fought tyranny and oppression during that period of history. Some of the stories are heart-breaking but must be told and never forgotten. The Trabant is brilliant and I had been in one before, but Martina did let me have a drive in this one, and absolute delight and the look on poor Martina's face was priceless. If you want a truly memorable experience in Prague then take this tour. Martina is amazing, a delightful person and very kind and thoughtful. Thank you Martina
