ABOUT ANDREA
... sharing information on history, art and architecture with clients but also showing Prague and the Czech republic thru the eyes of us, Czechs. Just - do not forget, I am one of us, locals!:)
I passed a year-long guiding course by Prague Information Service and got my official tour-guiding licence in 2000. I am officially certified as a guide in the Prague Jewish Town and Museum, too. I passed several other courses, trainings and I believe the continious studying and learning is the way how to be a real expert and added value to my clients. I got my Master´s degree at Charles University in Prague in 2006.
I like fun and I take tours easily.
Please, do not hesitate to ask any further questions or send email to book a tour with me. All my recommendations, I share with my clients, are my recommendations based on my experience - and I check (especially cafés and restaurants) very oooften :).
