Sarka's tour of Velvet Revolution and Communist Era - Sarka is brilliant and fun to be with. We spent three half days with her, After the castle tour and a tour of the Jewish quarter which were very interesting, Sarka created a tour for us based on our interest in 20th century Czech history. She created an experience which we will never forget. Her love for her country and pride in her country's history make her the perfect guide for any visitor to Prague. She brought the Velvet Revolution to life with our tour of Wenceslas Square. We visited many historic sites from WW11, and post WW11, the Prague Spring and the Velvet Revolution. Truly an unforgettable experience.
