Picturesque Prague: Visit the Old Town of the Czech Republic's capital
[{'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 17, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "So this was my 2nd Amazon Explore tour and WOW, What a ginormous difference! The first was basically watching our guide walk down a busy (different) city street with the occasional turn at a point of interest, IF the technology worked.\n\nToday was visually and audibly clear. Gorgeous weather. And MARK, our guide, was PHENOMENAL- my husband and I booked a group tour, but no one else selected the same time so we had a 1:1. Mark asked why I picked this tour and when I said the astronomical clock, he ensured we arrived on the hour. (He made my whole day!) This entire experience was a great because he was engaging and personable, knowledgeable and entertaining, AND rather then give us a run of the mill tour- he customized it to fit our desires (Architecture, history & a tad of culture.) My husband had traveled to Prague 25 years ago and I've never been. Mark's tour showed my husband what had changed and gave me a glimpse of a city that looks like it comes straight from a fairytale. We have 2 more tours scheduled for Prague and we cannot wait! After we disconnected, we both said we felt like we were visiting a friend, who was showing us the local sites. Thank you Mark, see you very soon!"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on July 13, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'We started off in a quiet square, then onto the busier Old Town Square, and finished at the Municipal House. We learned about a 600 yr old astronomical clock, Jan Hus, sneaky and beautiful artwork on the side of buildings, and many other picturesque cultural places. Our tour guide, Katerina, was professional and very knowledgeable. Highly recommended!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Took a virtual Prague walking tour with Mark on 7/16/22, and the experience was absolutely amazing! Mark navigated the city and made it super interesting, sharing pieces of history that there was no way I would have learned if I had been in the city physically. He was patient, kind, and sincerely wanted to make this a great experience - he succeeded! It was also interesting to see live the crowds - or lack thereof - and the way people interacted with our tour guide. I highly recommend this tour! Thank you for providing me a little window into your beautiful city!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Loved seeing all the beautiful buildings and hearing the history of each.

He filled the tour with stories of art, architecture, people and religion. He was a terrific host and a great introduction to the virtual tours. This was my son's mother's day present to me and I am so appreciative of having had the experience to walk the old town with Mark."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Great fun tour.

Nikola was a delightful host - very knowledgeable, interactive, and went at a very good pace. I really enjoyed what I learned from her, and the additions of maps, photos and music made for a fully immersive experience. Highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to spend an hour in a completely different location with a completely delightful host. Can't wait to get back to traveling so I can visit in person and take a tour with this company. In short - loved it!"}]
