This was a good...

This was a good introductory tour of Prague Castle. Our guide, Mikal (Mike) was very knowledgeable and willing to answer everyone's questions. His restaurant suggestions at the conclusion of our tour were very helpful. He spoke quite quickly at times, making it challenging sometimes to catch everything he was saying.

Prague Castle Tour Including Admission Ticket - 2.5 Hour

Andrew_P, May 2026

This tour is a worthwhile one to do

Michael was very entertaining and knowledgeable. At 2.5 hours this was a long tour. We also had an older couple who had to pull out early as they could not handle the walking required so be prepared. There is a lot of information shared in this tour and probably too much to keep my attention at all times. Worth doing
