We loved the tour! Not only were the places we visited beautiful and breathtaking, but we also got lucky to have Steve for our guide! He is an excellent storyteller with a great sense of humor. He definitely made the tour memorable and extra special.

This is a great tour. It starts by the Charles Bridge and you ride the tram to the top of the castle so saving your legs the walk up the hill. Plenty of time to move around at the castle and then you wander back down on your own to the Charles Bridge again.

Andrea lead our tour and was a fabulous guide. She explained the history so well and also fielded our questions with ease. Thanks, Andrea, for sharing your knowledge! We loved it!
David_B, Aug 2026
Andie was an outstanding guide! I speak English and she was super clear and easy to understand.
The weather was kind of brutally hot but she kept our attention every step of the way. So, just note on hot days you will be sweating.
I was stressed because I was running a bit late but found it turned out ok. The tour starts at the meeting point (in the shade 👍) for a good 15 mins or so which provides a bit of a cushion if you’re running behind. Can’t say enough great things about the tour and specifically our guide. I didn’t have a lot of time so didn’t go in the castle- which probably was very cool. Highly recommend

Our guide, a local young lady, was the best! She was energetic funny and incredibly knowledgeable. She kept our family of 4 including 2 teens entertained for the entire 2.5 hours around the Prague Castle icons.

Our tour guide was Steve, the Canadian living in Prague for many years. His knowledge of the history of the Czech Republic and all the empires and kingdoms that occupied the region was exceptional. He also knew all about the art, and the architecture in all the places that we visited. He delivered the information and entertaining, often humourous way. It was worth every penny, and even more. Best tour that I’ve ever had – ever.
Response from Host, Aug 2026

Amazing tour with a very good guide. The guide was local but still spoke very good English, and knew a lot about the history of Prague and the castle. The castle was spectacular and the price was well worth the tour.

Michael_S, Aug 2026
Touring the inside of Prague Castle with a guide is an absolute must when in Prague. It is a massive, beautiful complex of buildings containing centuries of history. There are so many people around at every turn and not a lot of signage that it would be somewhat difficult to navigate without a knowledgeable guide that can go in and out of the most important sites and condense the history.
Our guide Misha was thorough, engaging, and hilarious. She would get more than 5 stars if that was an option. We went in without any knowledge of Prague’s history and came out history buffs! Thank you for a fantastic tour Misha!!
Response from Host, Aug 2026
Thank you so much for your fantastic review! We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed exploring Prague Castle with Misha and that her knowledge, engaging personality, and sense of humor made the experience so memorable. We’ll definitely share your wonderful feedback with her — we’re sure she’ll be delighted!
It’s especially great to hear that you went from knowing little about Prague’s history to becoming history buffs by the end of the tour! 😊
Thank you for the 5+ star review, and we hope to welcome you back to Prague for another historical adventure! 🇨🇿✨
Greg_F, Jul 2026
We really enjoyed the Prague Castle walking tour with Steve (I think) our Canadian tour guide. He was very engaging and informative, he knew exactly how to pace the tour interacting well with the whole group. The Prague Castle tour is a must do in Prague the whole Castle precinct is huge and having a guide did make a difference. This tour starts next to Charles Bridge with good info about the bridge as you walk across it, a tram ride to Castle and a fair amount of walking. Tour was a highlight and Steve gave us lots of good tips about Prague as well.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Thank you very much for your feedback; we are delighted that you were satisfied with our guide, Steve!
Elize_W, Jul 2026

This is a very good, sometimes funny tour offering history and current information for Prague. The guide knew a lot about Prague and offered additional information the tour summary didn’t even touch. He was very good!

Steve was a great guide with a rich understanding of Czech history which makes you want to delve deeper into Czech historical roots. We got lost but they were generous to make sure we were able to match up with the group past the meet point to take advantage of the tour. Highly recommend

This is a long tour with lots of walking. Weather was sunny 100F and nearly intolerable. Pablo, our guide, was very helpful keeping us in the shade and keeping us hydrated with water stops to refill our bottles. He has deep knowledge of all points of interest. We definitely learned a lot on this tour. My only negative comment is that our guide was a little difficult to comprehend because of his moderate accent (note: I am from USA so maybe this is my own deficiency!).
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Thank you very much for your feedback! We are very happy that you enjoyed the tour with Pablo despite the hot weather. We hope to see you again in Prague!

Our Prague Castle tour was one of the highlights of our trip! Our guide Misha was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about Prague's history. She brought centuries of history to life with fascinating stories and interesting facts that we never would have learned exploring on our own.
The tour was well-paced, organized, and gave us plenty of opportunities to admire the breathtaking architecture and stunning views while asking questions along the way. Our guide's enthusiasm and sense of humor made the experience both educational and enjoyable.
If you're visiting Prague, I highly recommend taking a guided tour of Prague Castle. outstanding experience!

Peter from Prague was awesome! He was knowledgeable, funny and engaging. His goal was to make learning Prague’s history fun, and he absolutely achieved that. We learned so many fun facts about the city that we never would have learned just from walking around in our own. The castle, and all the other sites we saw, were absolutely beautiful and it was so nice to have Peter giving us all the history behind them. Not to mention, it was extremely hot out (100+ degrees F) during our tour, but Peter never skipped a beat. We never felt rushed and felt comfortable to ask questions and joke around with him. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Prague - it was an amazing experience!
Response from Host, Jun 2026
