The driver was so friendly and helpful and gave us a good overview of Czech history and places to visit. He even stopped on the way to the train station to take us to a viewpoint over the city where we could see the river and bridges and take some photos. When we got to the train station he carried our bags for us and took us to the booking desk where he helped to book tickets for our journey to Brno. He even waited to show us which platform the train would leave from. This was so much appreciated as I speak no Czech and was travelling with a young child. His English was perfect and manner was very friendly and professional. I would definitely recommend. This service exceeded all expectations. Thank you.
