Wonderful overview of Prague Old Town and Jewish Quarter - My husband and I booked this tour with Jason and it exceeded our expectations. There was another couple in the group, so it was very intimate and almost like having our own personal guide. Jason was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the Old Town as well as the Jewish Quarter. He gave very complete and nuanced details about the area. He had a wonderful sense of humor, which we really appreciated, and he answered questions quite well. If he didn't know the answer to something, he readily admitted it and we moved on.
I would definitely recommend Jason for his knowledge and humor.

A great orientation if it’s your first visit to Prague. - In Prague for our first visit, we booked a private tour with Jason so that we got a good orientation. Although a private booking, we broadly followed the route of the ‘Old Town and Jewish Quarter’ tour. A very enjoyable walk - Jason was informative and friendly, giving us plenty of tips to help us flesh out our plans, and took time to answer the specific questions we raised with him. We used his website/blog several times during our stay. Thank you Jason.

Fabulous walking tour - Jason gave a great tour of the city. He is very knowledgeable and personable so kept our interest on a very hot day. He showed us intricate details of what to look for when we were on our own. He has a great sense of humor and kept us entertained.

Great customized tour with knowledgeable and fun guide - Jason gave a very informative and interesting tour. One thing that we greatly appreciated was his flexibility in tailoring the tour to our needs, as we need to make frequent "pit stops" along the way. Jason was very accommodating and ensured that we were going at a pace that was comfortable for us. Jason is very engaging and a fun person to spend three hours with. We did a private tour--just my wife and I--and found the cost to be very reasonable. We highly recommend the tour. Thanks, Jason!

Great Introduction - 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.

Excellent! Great historic knowledge. Engaging! - Excellent and knowledgeable tour guide. Engaging and provided some myth busting information. Would highly recommend. He keeps the tour to 6-7 people which is wonderful and he knows his Prague history. Rewatched the INXS video Never Tear Us Apart because of the Prague and Jewish cemetery footage based on his reco!

Informative and interesting tour! - I have visited Prague before, but was traveling with family who hadn't, so we did Jason's walking tour of the Old Town and Jewish Quarter. I was impressed by the in-depth information, and learned lots of new things about Prague's history. Jason also provided helpful information for accessing various sites in the area. I booked directly on his website and also found the information he provided ahead of time very helpful (especially with navigating the public transportation). Thanks for a great tour!
