The tour in Český Krumlov is a must do when in Prague. The Prague Bus Tours team was great, both our tour guide and driver. Our tour guide, Gustav, always had something to say in every corner of the town and we found this very interesting and valuable and made us appreciate the experience much more. The private van was also comfortable and spacious.

Our tour guide Alex is a very responsible person and he was very helpful when I had some problems during the day trip. He also had well knowledge of the historical sites. Highly recommended!

Lukas was exceptional. Extremely knowledgeable about the Town and the history of Czech Republic and surrounding areas. He has a wonderful command of English.

Michaela was so nice and professional. We enjoyed the whole trip and the town is very beautiful. It's worth the visit! Top driver as well

The team leader is very kind and detailed. The only downside should be that the return trip did not to go the toilet.
