“Incredible Tour! Clara our guide was very down to earth, engaging, funny, knowledgeable and she was very passionate about history. She is a local and was able to weave in personal stories and anecdotes that made the tour very interesting and gave a good impression of life under communism. The bunker was very cool and the historical information was digestible and relevant. Clara gave us time we need for a break and even took us to the supermarket when we needed some snacks and showed us some retro Czech chocolate bar brands that have survived capitalism !

He was so well versed in the history of the Czech Republic and really helped us to put together Czech’s past from before WW1 to the present. He answered all of our very many questions and showed us parts of this beautiful city either marked by locations where brave residents had changed history or where history had happened.
