Martin, the ideal tour guide - The most memorable part of the tour was our guide Martin. Many tour participants probably would not have liked his style of guiding, but he was my idea of the perfect tour guide. First, it was a small group. Instead of spending time on the microphone while we were being bused from Prague to Kutna Hora, he gave the tour a more personal touch by talking to participants in small groups. When we got to our various stops, he gave a small talk on what we were going to see, shared any historical facts or legends in connection with the site, and then gave us about 25 minutes (which was perfect) to explore on our own. I, myself, do not like being herded around in a group nor do I like being bombarded with information over the course of an entire tour. However, he was always available to answer any questions we may have had.

Impressive & informative tour - This was a really good and nice tour through Kutná Hora in a small group. We were picked up directly from the hotel. Martin was really nice and explained a lot to us. At the end of the tour we went to eat in a traditional restaurant. The trip is highly recommended :)

Great afternoon day trip with lots of local history from our guide. - St Barbara church and it’s history, the walk through Kunta Hora, and the Czeck countryside outside of Prague.

Kutna Hora - The tour was a great opportunity to get out of the city and see the Czech countryside. The town of Kutná Hora provided some fascinating venues including the rather creepy chapel with all the human bones. (Somebody had too much time on their hands!) The magnificent cathedral was beautiful but sad to learn no one uses it today. A walk around the village allowed for a few more sites plus some free time although there wasn’t much to do or going on there. Our group was small so easy to manage. The guide was very nice but it was hard to hear her talking in the van. Both she and the driver were very accommodating. I noticed a nearby town that was on my family tree. They drove us there to take a quick look.

Worth a visit. - Kutna Horą is worth a visit. Sedlec Ossuary is truly unique. There is a little bit of walking and we were lucky with fair weather. We could have a better guide though.

Good Transportation but light on facts, history and content - Good transportation. Some confusion on pick up and drop off. Bathroom situation not well thought out. Some locations seemed to lack significant content around the place, history, politics etc. Not fully transparent. Probably go with another company to Kunta Hora which is a town rich in history and cultrue.

Not that satisfied - Okay tour. Lovely town! Beautiful and picturesque. Guide didn't have much patience with the group and wasn't as fluent in languages.

Disappointing tour and tour guide - This is our first experience with this company and it was rather disappointing. We admire that our guide is multilingual, but waiting until she finished explanations in three languages for the group of 7 people took too much time - the tour was supposed to be in English, and everyone in the group spoke enough English to understand the basic information that she was providing. To make it worse, she did not have any consideration to do it on the bus instead of keeping the whole group under the pouring rain and gusting wind. While the rain was not under her control, the choice of the location where she was giving us general info certainly was. She knows basic facts about Kutna Hora but her presentation was not impressive. Lastly, we were dropped in the city instead of bringing us back to the hotel. My advice is to use a different company.

Dissatisfied - Was picked up 30 min ahead of time at the hotel, the bone housing was seen at Max 5 min. The guide did not go into the churches and explained, was not driven back to the hotel, was dropped off at the station, so I had to walk to the hotel there from 10-15.
