Praha was great for this tourist. Can't wait to revisit. Best meal after 2 weeks in the road. Pork, veggies n beer. The perfect amount of friendliness from locals. Plus "the largest dance club in eastern Europe" built into the Charles Bridge. What more could one ask for

You could make a video of the best places to go have a beer and meet people, in Madrid it is increasingly difficult to start a conversation with someone

Last night i watched you in national UK TV with Micheal Portillo. You were brilliant.

First of all apologies for what happened in the 1938 and 1968 twice we let you down when you needed us. And thank you for the sacrifice of your airmen who protected the UK during the Battle of Britain, Liverpool being a city that you helped to protect during this time. Do you know there was a docudrama about Alexander Dubcek many years ago about the Russian invasion in 1968 and Liverpool town hall was used to represent the Kremlin as apparently it is very similar inside😮. Fantastic video as always guy’s 😂😂😂 and yes ban the costumes in Prague, although my wife and I never saw any when we were there. But did see and meet very rude tourist ‘of all nationalities’ and generally the people of Prague was very friendly and polite❤👍

Maybe you shouldn't ban the costumes, but you should charge a fee and issue a certificate for permission to wear them, haha.

if they are going to ban the costumes, then bring back the giant panda bear

Yeah ban those parties. Keep Prague classy!!!! Thank you for the video...

Valerie, great video, ... and nice lipstick ...

I am an American. For the most part, we are clueless of history .... unless it was made into a movie or a TV series. lol Many people think the US sent an occupation force to various European countries after WW II to make them our puppets. That is far, far from the truth. The Western European countries joined the Bretton Wood agreement, the US would become their security guarantor. Many countries remembered how the UK and France defended their "allies" (like Czechoslovakia and Poland). As a result, they demanded the presence of US troops on their soil. Any military person can tell you tha the number of US troops in Europe was a order of magnitude too small to act as a defensive force. That is because they were not there to defend Western Europe. They were to be a tripwire. If the Soviets decide to invade Western Euorpe, they will need to attack US troops. The theory was that even if the US politicians were willing to abandon Western Europe to the Soviets, the American People wouldnot tolerate a US politician that even hesitates to defend Europe. Failing to rush troops to Europe would be carrer suicide (and possible be suspected as a Communist spy or mole). The only reason the US does not have permanently stationed troops in the Baltic States is the belief that Russia is unlikely to invaded them (at least in the immediate future) and teh desire not to politically escalate the situation and potentially start a major troop beuild up on both sides of the border. Instead, the US is "rotating" some troops through the Baltic States. On a lighter note, a charlatan and a poet both need to be creative.

It's about having fun

It is fair. The men that have been serving for years should get relief

RPG‘s!!! Great stuff!!! Today I am watching from Dublin!!! This was really interesting. I am amazed at your ability to create new ideas for videos. Keep up the great work!1!

let them have fun

I've been to Prague five times, and each time I visited, I know how to behave myself. I have always been told to respect the people and country I visit. I visited Prague last month and saw too many British stag groups. As a British person, this embarrasses me 🤦‍♂️🇬🇧

BTW thanks to you i did a day trip to Liberec last month. loved it!

James I was the father of the Queen of Bohemis, Elizabeth. Through her, the British throne passed to her grandson, George I. The Austrians toppled her husband and they had to make a run for it Ive seen a photo of Czechs lined up in the street outside the UK embassy (right where you are standing) in Mala Strana trying to get refuge as Hitler marched in. Shaded of jumping the wall at the (West) German Embassy 50 years later

Places around "irish pubs" in Prague are pretty much no go zones, you really don't want to be there when some stupid Brits have their parties there. Our politicians should finally do something against this kind of "tourism" but they don't have balls like in Venice do actually do something.

Hey Valerie, you legend, on British tv! Just saw you with Michael Portillo on his Prague guide. Great work. Loving it xx

I saw the winged Lion, on my most recent visit but I missed the bust of Nicholas Soames. Where can I find that? Note - these videos are great, keep them coming

im over here in the USA, so I had no idea Czechia was a famous party place! Thanks, i know where to get drunk next time!! Just kidding, I love your vids, and don't forget that Hitler loved all the things conquering Czech republic got him, he got gun manufacturers and tanks and gold. The Czech army did not oppose Hitler as he took over. So there is some wiggle room regarding how much of a victim Czechoslovakia actually was. Dont forget that Half of austria straight invited Hitler in to take their land.... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occupation_of_Czechoslovakia_(1938%E2%80%931945)

WHEN PRAGUE MEETS ICELAND?

Last summer, my wife and I traveled through central Europe, including Prague. In almost every city on our trip we encountered young British men having these stag parties. It was perhaps most egregious in Krakow, PL. At 3am we heard English football chants, and witnessed young british men urinating on medieval buildings. As an American, who flew more than 12 hours and spent considerable money on the trip, this was shocking. Locals explained that for the Brits, this was a cheap (100-200GBP airfare) weekend trip to a location with cheap booze and less accountability compared to back home. This explains why many locals were relieved or even excited to learn we were Americans and not English. LOL

Well I don`t know about those parties, sice COVID/Brexit one can hear more French and German in Prague's center, than English. And if you actually hear English it's usually with American accent.

"Nicky's Family", a documentary about Nicholas Winton, is on multiple free streaming services for free. You will cry.

Ano

Hopefully the visa waiver program next year will keep them out. They should go to Blackpool instead.

I’m sorry for the behaviour of my countrymen in Czechia. The majority of Britons respect the Czech Republic and its’ hard fought freedom from Communism.

This beast is more vicious and ferocious than Himmler.

If anything is learned from history it is people learn nothing from history. A worse Holocaust is coming. Its called the Time of Jacob's Trouble.

I am here before Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 release

Thanks for this video. Wife and I are set to take our first trip to Europe and Prague is our first stop. I expect to be completely lost for the majority of this trip so you may have helped me avoid some of that. I will check out more of your guides.

2:10 That looks… cursed

Thanks Valery we willa be passing though Plzen in November. Do they have brewery tours on Saturday? Wow I looked online and tickets are Kc549?? Really?

Can you tell me what Povedal (sp) is

Yes, he had many bad names assigned by the allies, locals never called him that. He was so bad that the locals didn't want anything to do with the operation, and the brits had to train terrorists in England to perform the war crime of murdering an officer. An interesting fact is that thousands and thousands of Czechs came to see his coffin and pay their respects because he improved their lives. Historical facts.

You did not explain anything on how and what the clock shows

You have no idea what that clock really is

Great info, thanks 😊 👍

I asked for the photographic ticket when I bought my tickets just last week (April 13th) and was told they weren’t issued anymore and I could take as many pictures as I liked.

Ive been to this place you can feel the ora there very disturbing

0:55, clearly it symbolizes the "death" of the sun every night, much like most religions do. Perhaps you should further your research on the meaning of this beautiful and culturally significant astronomical clock

Hello! I am so glad we will be there at the end of April! Could you please tell me if we need to wear jackets then? Thank you for your videos!

You are so fantastic! Love from Greece 😊

Love your humor in your videos Val. I'm looking forward to my visit of Praha next month. One thing if you could tell me, I read you could buy separate tickets to take photos inside the buildings. Where would I buy these tickets, and also the Strahovsky Library. Do i need to pay for photos ? Thanks ! P.S. I just realized you said the phone is allowed for photos. Good enough.

JESUS CHRIST BE PRAISED!

and we care why?

Wonderful wow,so miss a real cafe'.

You are the best. Thank you so much💕Loved all your videos. Best regards.

Thanks for all the cool tips. 👍😊🇮🇪
