Very informative. Jason explained things well and has great stories and good sense of humor. We learned about the history of Prague as it changed regimes multiple times. 2.5 hours went by quickly.

Jason was great, very knowledgable and personable and the tour was very informative. The small group was what attracted me to this tour and it was definately the right decision, 6 people only made it feel personal and easy to hear and ask questions. Highly recommended.

    Jason told us so many things we would not have otherwise learned about Old Town and the Jewish quarter of Prague. This was a great walking tour and we covered a lot of ground. Note that you don't go into any sights.,

    Great Information in a beautiful city

    Scott_S, Jun 2026
    We spent the morning with Jason, who was incredibly well versed in the City history, religion, politics, and general information related to Prague. We were very impressed and loved the very small group as it helped with interactions along the way. This is a very highly recommended experience!

    Excellent tour

    Our guide Jans was an English man so it was very easy to understand him. Jans was very friendly and had an excellent knowledge of the history of Prague.

    Walk through culture and history

    Srebrina_W, Dec 2025
    James was incredibly welcoming and friendly from the very start. He was engaging, knowledgeable, and made the experience truly enjoyable. Despite the very cold weather, the two and a half hours flew by. To top it all off, the tour inspired me to read a few Kafka short stories afterward, helping me fully immerse myself in the culture.

    Great Introduction

    Ann_T, Aug 2025
    This was an informative introduction to the old town. Jason is warm and knowledgeable and it was an enjoyable morning. And unlike many tours that say they are ‘small’ this one was enabling lots of interaction with our guide. Highly recommended.

    Great tour. Loved the small group. We covered a lot of Prague and learned more about the Jewish history

    I really recommend...

    Alex_F, May 2025
    I really recommend Jason’s tour of the Old Town and Jewish Quarter! He is clearly super knowledgeable about Czech history and culture, and the structure of his explanations and the overall tour design was very clear. We learned a ton and felt like we had a good sense of the place around us in Prague after participating in Jason’s tour. He was also entertaining and created a nice group atmosphere, chatting with us a bit and recommending different places to eat, drink, and visit along the way. If we could have only taken one tour during our time in Prague, this is the one I would take.

    Highly recommend!

    Jeff_D, May 2025
    Our guide Jason was excellent! Small group of 6 people made it easy to ask questions and hear him while we walked. Very informative and interesting tour, would highly recommend the tour and Jason in particular.

    Jason was a fantastic...

    Courtney_B, Apr 2025
    Jason was a fantastic guide with so much knowledge and passion for Prague’s history. I was the only person booked on the tour and he still went ahead with it, sharing so much information not just about the history, but also things to see and do in the area and places to eat. Highly recommend this tour.

    Excellent tour of the Jewish Area

    John_M, Apr 2025
    This was an excellent tour with excellent guide, Jason. He rattled off excessive dates with details. One would think he was historian. He wove together the fabric of time that surrounded the area in which we walked. He was impressive.. He wasn’t Jewish nor was the tour for those seeking a history of the atrocities done to “the chosen”. But it was an excellent tour and guide!

    Absolutely amazing...

    Katherine_K, Apr 2025
    Absolutely amazing experience! Jason was phenomenal. So funny while also informative and he did a wonderful job of tailoring the tour to our interests while also giving us the info we wanted about Old Town and the Jewish Quarter. Can’t recommend the tour enough!

    Great start to your visit!

    Christine_B, Mar 2025
    Jason was very accommodating. I was the only person scheduled for the tour and yet, he still agreed to host me. Very informative and interesting tour. Good for people just getting acquainted with the Old Town area. Lots of history of the area not always known to people outside Czech Republic.

    Jason was an awesome tour...

    Sami_S, Dec 2024
    Jason was an awesome tour guide — we truly learned so much! He was extremely knowledgeable and even shared helpful tips with us. This tour was definitely a highlight of our trip!

    Great Guide in a Great Place

    Sarah_S, Sep 2024
    We had a lovely walk with Jason. His knowledge of history, architecture, and holes-in-the-wall made our visit special and savvy to the area. We enjoyed getting to know him and his connection to the city. We wished we could have another tour with him!

    Excellent tour

    Erica_G, Aug 2024
    Jason was wonderful. We learned so much about Old Town and the Jewish Quarter. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get a feel for this beautiful city

    Prague 2.5 hour tour

    Jennifer_T, Aug 2024
    Jason was excellent, friendly, engaging, and made the story of Prague real. He took questions and made the small group tour feel personal. Highly recommend!!!

    Very good small group tour

    Michael_M, Apr 2024
    Our guide, Jason, was knowledgeable and seemed to enjoy what he was doing. The small group size was great- much better than other large group tours I have taken in other cities

    Engaging and Authentic

    Bailey_L, Jan 2024
    A really educational and unique tour that offers a lot of local knowledge knowledge, beautiful sites and engaging content.

    Jason is brilliant

    Kelly_B, Nov 2023
    Jason is a 27 year resident of Prague. With this he brings a personalized touch to his tour. He was engaging, full of insightful historical and present info. I highly recommend his tour. You won’t be disappointed.

    Hi Kelly, many thanks for reviewing and for choosing words like engaging and insightful. I just show people what I find interesting and I'm just lucky that others seem to find it interesting as well.

    john_w, Oct 2023
    Our guide, Jason, was exceptionally knowledgeable. Enjoyed his sense of humor as well. Very nice to have the small group.

    Response from Host, Dec 2023

    Hi John, yes, small group, sense of humour (British) and knowledge where required makes 2.5 hours go really quickly. Thanks for taking the time to review.

    Best small group tour with knowledgeable guide. Definitely recommend.

    Judy, Oct 2023
    Jason was a great guide who was very knowledgeable on Prague’s history. He walked at a reasonable pace and stopped to explain the sights. The small group of 7 was a definite asset and would recommend this tour to anyone travelling to Prague.

    Response from Host, Dec 2023

    Hi Judy, yes, a rare group of 7. Basically this happens when I have 5 on the tour and a couple wants to join. Still the smallest group in the city for a scheduled tour. What you learn on this tour sets you up for exploring the city. Thanks for the review.

    A real gem of a tour, or should I say “garnet” of a tour!

    Aparna_H, Jun 2023
    Jason gave an amazing tour, rich with history and details. We thoroughly enjoyed it and left knowing so much more about Prague. We highly recommend this tour. Thanks, Jason.

    Response from Host, Jul 2023

    Hi Aparna, people are often overwhelmed with information during the tour so I reinforce the bits that I think you'll find interesting and we build on those as we go through the tour. And of course "Garnet", mined here in the Czech Republic and birthstone of January. Thanks for taking the time to review.

    Do this tour on your first day.

    Julie_P, Jun 2023
    Jason is full of energy and good spirits. He provides interesting information and great tips to enhance the rest of your time in Prague.

    Response from Host, Jul 2023

    Hi Julie, yes, people use me either as an introduction to Prague or to answer questions at the end of the trip. Even if you've explored the city on your own you'll still learn new things with me. Thanks for reviewing.

    Excellent Old Town Tour

    Gaynor_R, May 2023
    Jason was a superb guide and made the walking tour very informative and his knowledge of Prague, and of the Jewish Quarter made the tour a great experience. Thank you.

    Response from Host, Jul 2023

    Hi Gaynor. It was my pleasure to show you around. 2.5 hours packed full of interesting content, hidden stuff, tips and tricks. Thanks for reviewing.

    Great overview of this area of Old Town

    Sheryl_g, Apr 2023
    Jason shared his knowledge in an interesting and easy to understand way. I booked for 2 a couple of hours before the tour and he ran it with just us.

    Response from Host, Jul 2023

    Hi Sheryl, since I started the tours I always said that Monday to Friday even if only one person books a tour I will still run it. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for reviewing.

    Wealth of knowledge and super friendly

    Erin_S, Apr 2023
    We had a lovely time and learned a lot on this walking tour of the old town of Prague. We ended up being the only two in the group for the day so we had a bit of a private tour! Jason has lived in Prague for years and had a really good grasp on history and culture from the 10th century all the way through til modern times. We felt comfortable asking lots of questions and asking him to explain things we were more interested in. It was really cold so he even showed us a spot to stop for some coffee mid tour! We booked through Viator, but of course they take a cut - contact him directly or through his website to book!

    Response from Host, Jul 2023

    Hi Erin, I do the tours down to minus 10 degrees C so it's not surprising some will request a short warm-up break especially if there are only a couple of people. But the tour did not end there did it. We usually have a chat about life in the city and my early experiences here which people may remember more than the tour!! Thanks for taking the time to review.
