Unique way to see Prague

We really enjoyed our Ghost and Spirits Tour last night! Our guide, Ivana, did a great job bringing the stories to life and was both knowledgeable and engaging. The sights and stories were interesting, and we really appreciated getting to see a different side of Prague’s Old Town that we probably wouldn’t have discovered on our own. It was a fun and unique way to experience Prague, and we would definitely recommend the tour — especially with Ivana as the guide!
