Working Out The Cast Of A Tourist Guide To Love
When you're tracking down who was in A Tourist Guide to Love, the first thing to know is that this is a 2015 Netflix romantic comedy filmed on location in Prague. The production is relatively small-scale, so the cast list isn't massive, but tracking it down can be slightly annoying because the title doesn't perform especially well in search results. You'll often get pulled toward unrelated travel guide content or other similarly titled productions instead of the actual film you're looking for. The film stars Anna Galvin as Kate, an American travel writer who ends up in Prague with her boyfriend and his family. She meets Tom (played by David Suchet) and eventually gets involved with his son Martin, played by David Anders. The rest of the cast includes Tereza Srbova, Jirí Sesták, and a few Czech actors who appear in supporting roles. It's not a big ensemble piece, so the main names you'll care about are those three leads. I spent probably twenty minutes last year trying to find the full cast list for someone asking about this exact film. What happened is that IMDB doesn't list it under that exact title prominently — it shows up, but the page is buried among similar-sounding entries. The workaround was going straight to IMDB and searching by the original Czech title or by the director's name, Petr Václav. That pulled up the correct page faster than any other method. Once you're on the right page, scroll past the top-billed names down to the full cast section, where the smaller roles get listed with character names attached.
One thing people usually miss when looking for this kind of information: the production is a co-production between the US and the Czech Republic, which means some of the cast members are primarily Czech actors who may have very limited filmography credits outside of domestic productions. If you're trying to track down a specific supporting actor, checking Czech film databases like csfd.cz alongside IMDB will give you significantly better results than using a single source. I learned that the hard way when trying to identify one of the background characters — IMDB had almost no info, but a Czech forum thread with stills from the film and name lists solved it in about five minutes. The film itself ran with a fairly modest budget, which you can tell from the cast size. It's essentially a two-hander romantic comedy with a Prague setting doing most of the heavy lifting atmospherically. Don't expect a large ensemble or surprise celebrity cameos. The real draw is the location work and the chemistry between the leads, not an impressive cast roster. If you want to verify anything I've said here, the most reliable single source is IMDB's page for the film. Cross-reference with the director's official filmography if you need deeper cuts. That's about as solid as it gets for a Netflix original from 2015.
