How Dronte Boat Rental Started
The Story of Founder Míla Pražák
My paddling journey began at the age of 13 when I set out for a river trip on the Ohře with Tesla Strašnice for the first time. We paddled in heavy military boats, and it rained almost non-stop for 14 days. Still, the river enchanted me, and since then I have spent every summer on the water.
At the age of 20, I founded the paddling club VTO Dronte, where I led children to a love of paddling for 15 years. Gradually, I established the boat rental Dronte s.r.o., which expanded across Czech rivers as well as the Slovak Hron.
Dronte Boat Rental Today
In 2019, I decided to hand over the management of the individual rivers to my best collaborators:
- Dronte Ohře s.r.o.
- Dronte Berounka s.r.o.
