September 2016 - Helen provided a wonderful guided tour of the Austerlitz battle sites over 5+ hours with pickup and drop off in Brno. She is knowledgable and engaged in Moravian history.

We contacted Helena asking her to show us the Moravia wine country. She planned a full and exciting day. Helena is the kind of person you feel you have known forever, like a childhood friend. She was excited to show the wine country and took an interest in what we wanted to see. She set up a tour for us in a chateau, was able to negotiate a better price in a wine cellar and took us through an exciting wine festival. Without her we would not have known where to go and what to see. We were exausted at the end, and certainly satisfied with the day. I would highly recommend Helena's services to anyone looking to go off the beaten path to learn about the Movaria region.

2016 I was visiting Brno for work and wanted to see some of the local area outside of the city. Helena offered a great one day itinerary, taking in some great sights that might be off the beaten track for anyone not familiar with the area. First was the wonderful Baroque church at Krtiny and this was followed by a trip to the Punkva caves, including some astonishing stalagmites/tites and a gondola ride through the water. After lunch, a visit to the delightful Poerta Coeli, and lastly, the Gothic Pernstejn castle. Helena put together a wonderful trip, knew loads of interesting facts about the region and was great company - and she found a terrific place for lunch! I would definitely recommend her for anyone wanting to explore South Moravia.

Helena,
We have now been back from our trip to Central Europe for about two weeks - enough time to not only adjust to the time zone, but also to reflect on the trip, our mistakes and our decisions well made.
There is no question in our minds that asking you to help guide and drive us around Southern Moravia for a few days was the single BEST decision we made in our entire three week trip through Poland, Austria, Hungary and the Czech Republic. Our days spent with you, seeing villages like Bonov and Brtnice, Telc and Trebic, as well as walking in the footsteps of Mahler at Kaliste and Jihlava were wonderful at the time, and only better now in memory. Your historical knowledge of the Moravian countryside and your language skills made the sights we saw and the people we met come alive - from the elderly lady in Bonov, to the farm family in Rasno, to the fisherman outside Dacice.

cont. of the previous TESTIMONIALS:
Having you guide us this spring taught us a valuable lesson that we intend to follow on all our future travels. Spending time in the big cities like Prague is worth doing, and can be done pretty well by yourself even if one only knows English. But to really experience a country, you must get out of the big cities and find a local, English-speaking guide to help you navigate the smaller towns and villages, where there is truly so much to see and do.
If anyone tells us that they are going on a trip to the Czech Republic, we will be sure to recommend that they contact you for help. AND we hope to return to Moravia ourselves in the next few years and once again call on your services. And don\'t forget: if you ever get to the New England region of the States, contact us so we can get together with you and show you a bit of our country.
Best wishes to you,
Gene and Margaret Pokorny Jaffrey, NH USA
