Although the tour wasn't what we expected - there was no systematic review of Prague architectural styles and design - it was personal and informative, and we were glad we joined it. The buildings Michael talked about were not necessarily the most beautiful ones in Prague, but they had interesting stories behind them. Michael was also very friendly and available for questions after the tour.”
