 The name “Precious Legacy” Tours was inherited from the name of the international exhibit of Czech Judaica that travelled throughout Israel, The United States, and Australia in 1983. The Czech Republic boasts one of the largest collections of Judaica in the World. The extraordinary number of items from Jewish life were preserved by the Prague Jewish Museum after being confisicated by the Nazis during World War II. (Award
 
Of particular interest is the fact that the Nazis allowed for the preservation of these items so that they would serve as artifacts of what Hitler hoped would be an extinct race.

Mr. Talisman is available for individuals and groups in North America who wish to build a suitable itinerary for their visit to Central Europe.

Our travel agency is committed to making sure that both the casual visitor as well as the experienced world traveller can take full advantage of what the city has to offer. We accomplish these goals the simple way: by providing our visitors with not only the most competent, trained and licensed guides, but also by making sure our visitors' every need is met with competence and a smile

To come to Prague is to take a centuries-long step back in history, to stroll among epochs of remarkably preserved architecture in colours, designs and textures only mimicked in other places around the world. Prague is the destination of choice for millions of visitors who come here each year to see the ancient Jewish Quarter, known as Josefov, founded before the year 1000! Imagine, to see first hand the oldest continuously-used synagogue north of the Alps; a cemetery which is like an encyclopaedia of history, one tombstone older than the next, stacked against each other in a sight which amazes, haunts and reminds the visitor of the importance of understanding how history unfolded. The Jewish Quarter is also home to the Jewish Museum, a complex of five former synagogues housing one of the world's largest collections of Judaica - our Precious Legacy.

Similarly, Prague's vast array of national museums, collections, and the Hradcany Castle complex (once the seat of Bohemian kings and the Holy Roman Empire, today the Castle houses the office of the President) are major attractions and a delight to the eye. The Castle grounds feature the "Golden Lane", an unforgettable cobblestone alley lined with three-quarter sized-townhouses dating from the 16th century. Former residents of the Golden Lane have included soothsayers, alchemists and even writer Franz Kafka (The Metamorphosis, The Castle, America...), who stayed on the Golden Lane for two years in a vain attempt to find peace in the busy city.

We are in the business of making sure every visitor in our care will get the very most of their visit to our city and country. We are pleased to be able to say to ourselves at the end of every working day that we have succeeded if we are to judge by the accolade we receive from clients who have even become our friends over the years we have been in business. On that note, we look forward to welcoming you to the Czech Republic and helping to provide you with an unforgettable, wonderful experience!


Entirely Yours,
