Hi Martina,
Just a short email to thank you for the great afternoon you organized for my parents. They told me you showed them a lot of Prague in just one afternoon. They also found you very funny and considered. So thank you so much, I will recommend your Trabant Tour to anyone I know who goes to Prague.
Kind regards, Sanne Kanters

Hey Martina,
I wanted to thank you so much for such an amazing experience! Hunter and I had so much fun with you and just love the city! Sorry about today that we didn't end up getting to meet up with you. We slept in late and went wondering around the city I didn't have my phone and by the time we got home it was late. I want you to know that you have 2 friends in Los Angeles and a place to stay whenever you want to come and I will be your guide.
See you soon I hope!

We had a fantastic tour in Salvador the Trabant on our trip to Prague. It was great to see the city in this way - travelling around in a part of history! We saw many sights that were off the beaten track as well as the main tourist attractions. Martina our guide was very knowledgeable and pointed out things to us we would never have seen on our own. The tour was extremely well priced and added a personal touch to the trip as we were on our own and not in a big tour group. We would definitely book another tour with Martina when we return to Prague - maybe even the witch and ghost tour!

From picking us up from our hotel, to dropping us off again, we enjoyed every minute of our trip and learnt much about Prague from the seats of Salvador!
Kind regards,
Nicola

Having never been to Prague before I had no idea of who was trustworthy or not and was looking to book my brother 'stag do' which is an event you must get right!
I decided to book through Martina at 'Art of Your Travel' and was really impressed from start to finish.
Martina and her team booked all the activities for the 3 days we were there including all the transfers between our events(they were all on time and with friendly guides).
The whole weekend went like a dream with no problems at all thanks to Martina.
Martina and her team are very reliable, efficient and friendly as well as being trustworthy.Anyone wanting to book should book through Martina and I would be happy to reference her and Art of Your Travel in the future.
Once again Martina, thank you as you made the whole weekend run perfectly!

STAROPRAMEN BREWERY VISIT, PRIVATE BOAT TRIP, GO-KARTING, 3rd June 2009

Notes from a vacation, read here
Anyhow, if you're ever in Prague, I can't recommend enough that you hire Martina Gregorcova as a personal guide. For the equivalent of about $30 an hour, she'll take you around town in this magnificent relic of Communism, Salvador the Trabant, with a chassis made almost entirely out of fiberglass and an engine that requires you to pop the hood and pour oil in to the tank to fill up with gas:
Martina is easily the funniest, most free-spirited, and most openly opinionated guide I've ever encountered, and I've encountered a number. To call her a unique individual would be an understatement. If you want an unvarnished, unsanitized view of Prague as opposed to the stock and sanitized view promoted by the big tour companies with their mammoth buses, you couldn't do much better than to drop Martina a line.

Hello!
Just to let you know Mum and Dad had a brilliant time and want to go back in the future!

Martina brought a very energetic and knowledgeable blend of history, art, architecture and modern culture into our tour. I really appreciated the way she tailored the time available to best match our varied interests. Well worth the cost. We learned so much in our short time with Martina.

Private sightseeing tour of Prague in Trabant 601, 19th of January 2009

Martina,
I requested a Slovak speaking guide for this first trip to Praha. It was a lot of fun talking in my native tongue with you as well as, for my wife's sake, in English.
You definitely know the City and the little known features you pointed out made the walking tour very informative and enjoyable. The dinner and pub tour was extraordinary. Not only did we have beer and goulash in the brewery of a monastery but drinks in a tavern with skulls in the ceiling and fire dancers outside.
My wife and I thank you for the ride in the Trabant, a once in a lifetime experience and I do mean once. Great time. See you in Krakow.

Take care and hope to see you soon! Next time I'm in Prague you are getting the first call!
Take care, All the best! Moe

14th August 2008, Architecture tour in Trabant

My wife and I recently signed up for the Paranormal Pub Crawl along with 2 of our friends. Martina was our guide and we had a great time! She took us to several "haunted" pubs and told us in great detail what ghosts are said to haunt them. While walking between locations Martina was also a wealth of knowledge about the history of Prague itself. I would absolutely recommend this tour!

Hi Martina,
On July 8,2008, my "travel buddy" Vicki and I were in Prague, and due to recommendations from some of our Ca.friends, that had done a tour with Martina last Oct., we went on a "customized" tour.....combination, Pub crawl, Ghost Trail, sightseeing tour with her. We had such a FANTASTIC time, and saw things we would have never found on our own, or with a "conventional" local guide. We got a fun ride in her "Trabant", we walked, we took public transportation, and the Funicular. We visited local bars, Reon's Gallery, the Charles Bridge, and LOTS OF WONDERFUL sites in between.....had a GREAT TIME!

Anyone that gets to Prague, I highly recommend you contact Martina, for a wonderful experience, you will never forget!

Sincerely,
Nancy Oliver

6th of June 2008, walking tour of Prague

Hi Martina,
just wanted to say a big THANK YOU for being such a wonderful tour guide.
Seriously, I find the experience with you so vastly different from other tour guides I had in prior trips elsewhere. I have to nail it down to your energy, enthusiasm and knowledge of Prague. The run-of-the-mill tour guides could never match your uncanny ability to get me interested in the history, culture and most importantly, the tale and stories about Prague.
I think I feel a certain attachment to Prague, thanks to you. Keep up your energy.

TRAVEL WITH MARTINA GREGORCOVA IS THE BEST!!
I was lucky enough to meet Martina when she was the tour guide during an international congress I attended in September 2007. I only spent an afternoon in her company, but during that short time it was apparent that her knowledge and passion of and for Prague and her country is enormous.

I went back to Prague in March 2008 and made sure that I booked Martina to spend time with my friend and I during my stay in this wonderful city. At my request she customised a day tour which took us throughout the city highlighting those particular areas in which we were interested. We then spent another afternoon and night with her where she, again, customised a tour of other areas of interest in the city.

What impressed me most about Martina is that she doesn't just recite words from tourist guides or books. She has sufficient knowledge about the city that she is able to chat informally as she guides you through the city and yet give you such a depth of information, both historic and anecdotal. This is not a rehearsed tour - this is a tour which is filled with worthwhile information and she is quick to determine your exact interests and makes sure that she satisfies this as well.

Her maturity and insight is also a wonder. I would recommend Martina to anyone who visits Praha!! Your trip will simply not be worthwhile unless you view this wonderful city with this very knowledgeable and professional tour guide!

14th March 2008: private whole day walking tour of Prague and on the 16th of March: ghosts and beer tour.

Praha, May 2008
Martina is not a very good tour guide for:

• Bus loads of seniors citizen that can not walk more than several city blocks
• If rigid schedules are to your liking
• You don't like surprises
• Your shoes are uncomfortable

But...
I would stongly recommend Martina:

• If you want to have fun
• If you want an experience that you will remember for a very long time
• If you can hoof it for several miles
• If you like flexibility
• I'm still smiling and I have been back to the States for several weeks
• If you like unique personalities
• If you want a bit of communist history, try a ride around the block in a Trabant (bring spare parts)!

Satisfied from Ohio,
Darrell May 2008

ciao Martina, Krakow was good really!!!!!.... anyway far behind comparison with your personal guide:)))).... Thank you for arranging the pub crawl and trabant tour in Krakow, I let you know when I'm back in Prague!

9th of April 2008: Krakow Pub Crawl and Trabant Tour

Martina we had a fabulous time with you. The pub crawl was so much fun, we never would have found all those great clubs and bars to go to and you were so easy to get along with and so so helpful with all your ideas for our big group! And then the ghost tour was fantastic you showed us the parts of Prague that we hadn't yet experienced and managed to keep a group of 13 eighteen year olds riveted with all your stories- very impressive. Your charisma and crazy sense of fun made it all the more worthwhile and we are so grateful to you.
Very jealous of your car it's very cool!
Anyway most of us will be in Prague again in July/August for a couple of days while we tour Europe so I'll let you know and perhaps we can catch up.
Thanks again,

The Art of Your Travel helped make our trip to Prague. We didn't have to waste any time looking for cool bars and clubs or arranging excursions, because Martina took care of everything and showed us exactly where to go. She even coped with the banter of 25 drunken lads on a stag do brilliantly!

Dear Martina,I hope this e-mail finds you happy and healthy. I want to thank you again, so very much, for the wonderful time you showed my family. Gloria, my grand mother is not easy to please, as you can probably see, and she was thrilled and happy with her time in Prague. She enjoyed 2 half days waking tour with you very much and made proper documentation of all you showed us! Jackie was thrilled and happy as well, and she really enjoyed her Pub Crawl, and will be including that in her face book I am sure. You will be hearing from her in a couple of days once she gets back into the US. Thanks again, and we really appreciate it! My Aunt Sandra and her friend Brenda will be here on the 18 of July, so I am sure we will be in contact with you again!!! :) Thanks again so much for your patience and tolerance and for showing them such a lovely time!!!
Have a great day,

Hi Martina-We just got back last night. We referred a couple from Savanah, Georgia to you that we met on the train to Vienna. I hope that they called you. Their names were Marshall and Helen. The rest of our trip was great but we wished that we had a Martina to show us around those other cities. Let's keep in touch. I'll send you a copy of the LA times article when it is published. Remember what Andy and I said; You are a great talent. Thank you again for a memorable visit to, what is now, our favorite City.

Hi, its John-Paul here the stag party from Rotherham you took around Prague on Friday. We would all like to thank you for an excellent trip, we had a great time and enjoyed our pub tour and how you managed to fit in the history of Prague , whilst we were on the crawl. A few of us brought some "Bechorovka" home to give to our friends and tell them the stories. What could we do more then have cheap beer, a great city and a fabulous guide like you. Would you be able to send us any of your pictures??

Hi Martina!
I'm so happy to hear from you! How have you been?
You know, I lost your contact information that you gave me, shortly after I left Prague, and I was so disappointed because I had always wanted to be able to send you an email and say thank you for showing me around. My trip to Prague was one of my favorites, mostly because I had my own personal tour guide! I remember buying cans of beer and hiking up to that huge monument on the hill outside of the city (the one with the horse). Well, again, I'm so happy to hear from you and will definitely pass your information along to my friends who also travel a lot.
Take care, and talk soon! Christine
