Best experience ever!!!! I was so scared before we started, but it was sooooo worth it! Jan was our pilot and he was amazing and knew exactly what he was doing. They picked us up on time and the starting place was beautiful. It wasn't scary at all and we had such fun in the air. If you've ever thought of going on a hot air balloon ride and you're on the fence, do this!!! The view is amazing and everyone makes you feel so at ease. You will not make a mistake by booking yourself and your family on this amazing tour!!

Calling all foodies, nature lovers, and dog people!

What do parasitology, canine operant conditioning, and haute cuisine have in common?

Petr Synek can tell you -- with the help of his beautiful Weimaraner, Nela. For the past two years, the two of them have been hunting truffles. Petr, a parasitology Ph.D. candidate at Charles University, started truffle hunting as a side business to supplement his academic work. His canine companion Nela is an excellent example of the traditional Czech expertise in dog training, which you will see firsthand as she bounds through the trees hunting for treasure.

On this tour, you will see some of the beautiful parks and gardens that Prague has to offer as Petr shows you how Nela was trained to seek out delicious, expensive fungi. You will learn about the biology and history of truffles in Europe, including right here in the Czech Republic. Best of all for foodies, you'll get to taste them yourself at a classic Czech restaurant near the Vltava in a dish prepared just for you using truffles from Petr's own stash.

If you're tired of wading through the crowds on Charles Bridge and eating tourist fare in Old Town, come walk off the beaten path and discover the funky -- and delicious -- world of truffles in Prague.

You can check out Petr and Nela on TripAdvisor as well, where you can find more information and reviews: https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g274707-d12342514-Reviews-Truffle_Hunting_Tour-Prague_Bohemia.html

During the entire trip our guide Petr was a wonderful teacher and friend, took up us from train station and transfer to the river, told many interesting things about canoeing and Czech republic, teach us to drive canoe and shows amazing places on the river!
Everything was included (thanks Martin):

- facilities to leave the luggage (van and dry bag)
- training and guiding;
- amazing beauty of Sazava;
- lunch in Cafe (free beer!);
- ride on the mountain train with breathtaking sights!

I'm strongly recommend to book this trip and to see this with you own eyes!

Easy Canoe Safari on the Sázava River from Prague

Perfect day out!

Wife and I had a great time canoeing with Martin. He took us out even when it was just 2 of us (some guides would cancel). He was very patient (we were doing this for the first time) and offered good advise when needed - you get the hang of it after some practice. The river is very scenic and beautiful, would highly recommend it. Also had an awesome Czech lunch with him and he was more of a friend rather than a guide. If you wanna take a break from the city and enjoy the natural beauty, this is something you just have to do!

Unreal

David was a brilliant tour leader! He was very knowledgable about the city's history, culture, and people, while also entertaining us with personal stories and providing a different perspective on Prague. He took great care of us (I got a flat tire and he took my bike and ran with it while I had his bike so as not to interrupt the tour) and even extended the tour by 2 hours so we could sit in a beer garden and see a couple extra sights! What a fantastic way to spend the day, Highly recommend!!

Alternative Prague Tour Review

Great tour with Tomas. He took us around more off the beaten path locations of Prague. We really enjoyed hearing about Prague from a local's perspective, including the history and places that locals go to. Next Prague visit we would definitely want to stay in some of those areas.

Thanks, also, to Tomas for sharing some of his meal during out last stop. It's rare to get that kind of hospitality and kindness during a vacation.

Overall, a great and highly recommended tour.

Highlight Experience

Martin is an awesome guide! It's more like canoeing with friends than it is with a guide. The river view is stunning and for anyone looking to enhance their trip to Prague with thrilling canoe trail, definitely book this! The river can be quite rocky, but it made for some excitement and there were no issues at all. The pick-up to drop-off made everything about this so easy and enjoyable as well. Worth the money, do yourself a favour and give it a go!

The best way to get around Prague

I was looking for something fun that would show my boyfriend and I the main landmarks and places before exploring on our own. This was beyond amazing! Sona welcomed us and Julia gave us the instructions to learn about history and Kafka. We knew how to get places without maps after this activity. I highly recommend it of you want to truly feel like a local

Great experience sprinkled with lots of cool stories!

We loved the tour in as much as it opened our eyes to the rich cultural and social context of this beautiful city. The guide was engaging, approachable and with lots of interesting things to share. An underground artist in her own right, she was the right person to introduce us to the alternative Prague. Totally recommend it!

Different to other tours

This is a great tour, that is quite different to other tours around. The tour begins by learning about the truffle industry followed by a lovely walk up Pertrin Hill watchling the beautiful Nela hunt for truffles. The tour ends with a quite nice meal that includes truffles.
Peter & Nela provide a great morning out.

Amazing unique experience

Exploring the nature side of Prague with Petr and Nela gave us a fresh perspective of the city. Petr was very patient with us when he explained how he trained Nela to hunt for truffle. Needless to say, Nela was a darling and we all loved her. Truffle hunting was one of the main highlights of our stay in Prague!
