Eva was a great guide. Extremely knowledgeable and fun to talk with and learn from. Highly recommend both the tour and Eva as a guide! Just a phenomenal experience.

Great private tour

Philip_N, Aug 2026
The tour was great. It’s a private tour, so it was just our family of four. Our guide, Nicola, was knowledgeable and friendly, and and kept the kids engaged with quizzes and searches along the way. Highly recommended.

Prague Castle Tour

Great tour and Natalie was an outstanding guide. She explained everything in great detail, easy to understand detail.

Private tour is highly recommended and well worth the price

Stacy_Q, Jul 2026
Our guide was very professional, knowledgeable, and maneuvered us perfectly through a busy morning. We enjoyed our tour, and learned a lot. The experience met our needs for a private tour, while exceeding our expectations. We highly recommend our guide as she was very engaging, and answered all our questions!

Great Experience

LES_O, Jul 2026
Eva was excellent and made sure we saw all amazing parts of the castle (Eva knows the best spots for photos and views) including the changing of the guard. We had 3 generations in our private group and never felt rushed and easy to ask questions. She made sure we had a great experience at the Castle! Thanks Eva!

Well worth the money

Linda_L, Jul 2026
Great pace and level of detail. Lots of interaction with guide to customize our experience. Felt like we got much more out of the experience by hearing stories not just facts.

Eva was an absolutely wonderful tour guide for our Prague Castle tour! She is an incredible storyteller who truly brought the history of Prague and the castle to life. Her knowledge, passion, and engaging personality made every moment interesting and enjoyable. We learned so much while still having a great time. Thank you, Eva, for making our visit such a memorable experience — we highly recommend her to anyone visiting Prague!

Tour with Gunther

Cheryl_M, May 2026
Günther was an excellent tour guide with extensive knowledge of Pragues history. Great day exploring the castle, cathedral and surrounding area! Highly recommend!!

Perfect day!

Meghan_N, Apr 2026
Our tour guide knew everything there is to know about her home town and the area we toured. We loved her! She even showed us where to go after the tour and walked us to the restaurant she suggested. 10/10

Perfect Way to Experience Prague Castle!

Rachael_M, Apr 2026
Our tour with Eva was absolutely marvelous. She was very friendly and knowledgeable, providing so many interesting tidbits and insights that you can't get from just walking around the complex on your own. She showed us around the entire complex, and when we still had additional time, she walked us down to Lesser Town and showed us some sights around there, too. She even gave us a superb recommendation for lunch with really delicious, authentic Czech cuisine. I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone and everyone planning to visit Prague, and if you get Eva as your tour guide, you will be in for a truly memorable day!

Alois was fantastic — we...

Alois was fantastic — we were lucky enough to have him as our guide again, and he made our Prague Castle tour such a great experience. He is incredibly knowledgeable, thoughtful, and easy to spend time with. He customized the pace of the tour for our group, which we really appreciated, and made the history feel interesting without overwhelming us. Prague Castle, St. Vitus Cathedral, Golden Lane, and the palace areas were all so much more meaningful because of his explanations. If you book this tour, ask for Alois — he is excellent.

Outstanding introduction to the fascinating and complex Czech histor Y

Diane_B, Apr 2026
Robert was fantastic. On a very busy day at the Castle, he provided an excellent experience. He had great and interesting knowledge of the history of Czech royalty, and the many political and religious factors that shaped the palace and its policies over centuries. The 3 hours flew by. We asked a lot of questions and Robert was so enjoyable. Highly recommend.

Fantastic Guide!

Scott_W, Mar 2026
Fantastic experience! Our tour guide was the best - extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Went out of his to accommodate us. Thank you!

Great Tour Guide!!

John_H, Feb 2026
What a terrific experience. The Prague Castle is impressive and steeped in history. And the whole experience came alive because of our wonderful guide, Eva. She was a wealth of knowledge and a very pleasant and personable individual. We felt immediately at ease with her. By the end of our tour she seemed like just another member of our family. She gave us a great lunch recommendation and made herself available if we had more questions during our trip. I cannot recommend this tour, and Eva in particular, any higher.

Best tour of the trip!

Heather_J, Jan 2026
Our guide Teresa was incredible. She customized the tour to our interests, had so much knowledge about the sights and neighborhoods and it was wonderful getting to know a local. She also knew how to maximize our tour so we spent as little time waiting in lines as possible.

Personalized trip with kids

Priya_R, Dec 2025
It was a very cold day to visit the castle but yet we enjoyed it, all thanks to our tour guide Pavel. He was not only informative but also patient to answer all the questions the kids asked. We were 3 families with kids aged between 9-11 years, We recommend it!

GREAT tour with Tereza!!

Leanne_J, Dec 2025
Tereza was incredible! She communicated the challenges we had as it was Christmas Day and she adjusted her schedule to make our day wonderful.

Prague Castle Tour

It's a private tour of Prague Castle. Our guide Natalia is excellent. She is very kind, very knowledgeable, intelligent and friendly. The Cathedral is amazing. Don't miss this tour.

Had a wonderful...

Ben_S, Oct 2025
Had a wonderful experience with Matej. He made an overwhelming maze of buildings and streets a breeze to visit efficiently and provided lots of interesting historical information, both inside and outside the structures, as we walked. He was friendly and kept offering to take our pictures at all the best viewpoints. We couldn't visit the Old Royal Palace owing to government events, but he thought quickly and replaced that stop on the tour with Queen Anne's Summer Place, which had a nice garden and a view overlooking the places we had just been. He guided us back across the river and deposited us at the doorstep of a perfect lunch spot that he recommended. He answered all our questions and helped us plan an itinerary for the next day of our trip. Even with all the research I did ahead of time, he told me of interesting places to visit that were not on my radar. He not only made this particular tour great, but really helped the next day of my trip be better too. He texted us throughout the day, giving us the names of places he told us about or recommended. I definitely recommend this tour - doing it on the first day of your trip would really set you up for a successful visit.

Private tours are worth...

Patrick_F, Oct 2025
Private tours are worth the extra money. We had an outstanding time with Anna. She is very knowledgeable and answered all our questions about beautiful Prague.

Worth It!

Karen_K, Sep 2025
We had already completed the 6-hour Prague Walking Tour, but wanted more time in the Prague Castle. Eva met us early in the morning before general openings; she was very entertaining and knowledgeable. Enjoyed our three hour private “insider” tour.

Great tour

Amy_S, Sep 2025
Matej was a great guide full of knowledge and knew his way around the area and avoided crowds. He went above and beyond. Wonderful tour must do.

This was a great tour....

Wayne_S, Sep 2025
This was a great tour. You get so much more out of a private tour. Eva was a fantastic guide. She not only gave us a tour of every building within the largest Castle complex but also a sense of the people past and present. Did you know that King Wenceslas from the Christmas song was really a Duke? It was little tidbits like that which was so great. Eva’s personality really made the tour great.
