A private guide, storyteller, and proud local of the Moravian Karst – that’s me! I was born just a few steps from the deep forests and mysterious caves of this beautiful region, and I’ve been exploring them since I was a child. The Moravian Karst is not only home to more than 1,100 caves, underground rivers and gorges, but also to the stories and quiet connections that most visitors never get to see. It’s wild and peaceful, dramatic and gentle – and it’s only 30 minutes from Brno (yes, that close!).

I believe that to truly understand a place, you need more than facts – you need context. That’s why I don’t just guide tours. I open doors to hidden meanings, family memories, and forgotten tales. I love when people start to feel the landscape, not just see it.

So whether you want to walk through ancient castles, sail an underground river, or just breathe in the scent of the mossy forest floor – I’ll tailor the walk to your rhythm, your curiosity, and your sense of wonder.
