Itinerary

Make your way to the meeting point in central Prague. Meet your guide and hop inside your comfortable, air-conditioned coach.

Sit back, relax and enjoy the views as you drive past a string of top Prague attractions just as they come alive in a blaze of illuminations. and see other landmarks as you make your way to the Vltava River, where your sightseeing boat awaits.

Step aboard the air-conditioned boat and sip on a complimentary aperitif as you set sail on your cruise.

Watch the passing sights from the outdoor deck or through the panoramic windows of the cabin. Glide by St Agnes Monastery, the National Theatre and Vyšehrad, distinctive for the towering spires of St Peter and Paul Church, and after a taster of the sights, sit down to a delectable buffet dinner.

Take your pick from the selection of Czech and international hot and cold dishes, and enjoy the convivial atmosphere and accompanying music as it lilts through the cabin and decks.

Following your meal, head back to the open-air deck or drink in more of the landmarks from the cabin, including the Rudolfinum, the Charles Bridge and magnificent Prague Castle — its walls and spires all aglitter against the inky black sky.

When the time comes, return to the original start point of your tour, where your experience ends.

This was a very enjoyable boat ride. The boat itself was so high end and it felt like a very upscale experience. The food was good and plentiful as it was a self-serve buffet with servers giving you the option to purchase cocktails. There was an outdoor deck above the dining area so you can get fresh air and enjoy the views. The boat ride took us on a very long journey where we got to see the city from a very unique perspective. I would highly recommend this to fill three hours of an evening and have a delicious meal.

Roberta_S, Aug 2025

Was not able to attend due to late bus arrival from Prague. Tried contacing tour operator to no avail. Very disappointed Tried to reschedule for Sunday Aug 17 but I was told ot possible and no refund due. I am a retired 50 year travelagent who uses Viator ALOT for my clients and was very disappointed not to be able to talk to a human being regarding this.

Stunning evening

Michael_W, Jun 2025

Beautiful dinner cruise

Rachel_T, Dec 2024

Beautiful and magical dinner cruise with my partner and friends. Food was lovely, live music was excellent and the service was exceptional

Complex Arragmement to get on cruise

Cherian_T, Aug 2024

This tour is set up thru Viator thru another intermediate and then to the final tour entity. So we had to walk from the river to a third party and then back down to the river. All this may have been fine if the arrangements to get on cruise were laid out including relevant times.

Beautiful

Claire_G, Jul 2024

The 3 hour river cruise was absolutely amazing, You got to see the city at night. The food was absolutely gorgeous cooked to perfection. Staff where attentive, would definitely book again probably the nicest boat on the river

Spectacular Views of Prague

Suzanne_D, Jun 2024

This dinner cruise provided wonderful views of Prague from the Vltava River, especially on the return trip when it had gotten darker and the lights were on the historic buildings.

Upset rider

Penny_W, Jun 2024

The tour operator needs major improvement. We were sent to an information booth in a square that is no way close to where the boat was. Then we we told we had to walk 15 minutes to get to the boat. The woman gave us wrong directions and we almost missed the boat. I messaged the tour operator and asked them to call me no one called. You should just be able to go straight to the boat. We had 2 older people and spent 35 Euros to get to the booth. Then we were told we had to get to the boat. I had my tickets on the phone already. Plus we had trouble getting a Uber. It was a total waste of time.

Too long

Brian_J, Oct 2023

Dinner cruise was too long and just continually went back and forth seeing the same things for 3 hours.

Watch out for scaming!!!

Henry_W, Oct 2022

When I met with the agent in the city.He took us for a ride with city tram to the river rather than at the river directly. We were dropped off with a old and small ship rather the transpent ship that was advertised. I felt liked being cheated. It was a old narrow low ceiling,smelly ship. Af ter my complain,they finally moved us to the boat that was advertised with transparent clear top. By then We lost the window seat and got poor seating. What a SCAM. The food was less than average. The musicians were trying hard which I gave an overall 2 stars, otherwise they desered only 1 Star. Do not go to this trip. They scam you

Prague at night!!

Debra_C, Aug 2022

The boat was beautiful and the food was excellent. A lovely way to experience Prague at night. A city of lights! Beautiful!

Wonderful dinner cruise!!

Robyn_B, Aug 2020

My husband I took the Prague Night Tour and River Vltava Dinner Cruise and had a wonderful time! The boat was absolutely gorgeous and was very clean. The dining room was wonderfully cool and refreshing on such a hot day. The walls around the dining room are all glass so you have an uninterrupted view of Prague from your dining table. The food was fantastic!! It was set up as a buffet and there were so many options. The cruise lasted 3 hours and we went miles up the river so we saw so much of the city from the boat. Going through the lock was so interesting. We absolutely recommend this dinner cruise!

its a nice dinner ^^

Lovely_roo, Nov 2019

it is a 3 hour dinner on cruise. clean, friendly staff. you pay for the drink. free for food and they taste delicious. due some renovation or something, we just pass through a small circles many times. its in a closed space so its warm as i came in late october. after the dinner you can come out to take pictures. i don't really hear if there are any explanation about the places we pass as its full of people chattering, but i don't mind as i already have a city tour before. ^^ 3 hours is a quiet long time actually for me and my family, its enough for only 2 hours i guess if you just having dinner and going in circles many times >.<. but i think if you are going with friend and really enjoy talking with them that its okay.

Enchanting evening

Anne_L, Sep 2019

This was a wonderful tour in every way. The food was very good. The atmosphere was lovely. The views of Prague from the boat were amazing. We took many photos! Totally wonderful evening.

Really did not expect the boat to be so nice, and the food was amazing too! They had live music and staff were friendly, would recommend to anyone

Prague evening dinner cruise.

Sherri_B, Oct 2018

Cruise started after sunset, so it was hard to see landmarks. Nothing was pointed out. When the buffet was finally ready, all tables were allowed to go, resulting in chaos and disorder. The food was mediocre. Music was beautiful, but the cruise was too long.

Romantic Prague

Michelle B, Nov 2017

A nice evening on the water seeing Prague at night. Not as many lights as I expected but a nice evening none the less. Going under Charles bridge was a highlight. Plenty to eat in a buffet style meal and dessert.

Enrico R, Oct 2017

Value for money. I would really recommend it. If you are only after the food buffet, then this may not be for you. The food is good, don't get me wrong, but this is more about appreciating the beauty of Prague by night with her lights that reflect on the Vltava river. If you are not one to love a cold breeze on your face, take this on a dry summer's night. The sights are best appreciated on the top deck.

Maybe I had looked at too many...

Jacqueline B, Sep 2017

Maybe I had looked at too many photos of the lights along the Vitava River at night and sadly this experience didn't match my expectations. The cruise was pleasant, the food good for this type of activity and wine was well priced. The most exciting thing was going in and out of the lock in the dark.

Johanna A, Sep 2017

This tour was wonderful, had a very beautiful view of the city at night and the food was delicious. The only negative thing I have to say is that it is too long. 2 hours would have been long enough, 3 hours was too much.

ekelkis, Sep 2017

This tour was fantastic, and worth every cent! The food was good, with the ham being excellent. What really made this trip phenomenal was the sights of the city all lit up. I couldn't believe how many pictures I was took of the same places, with each one slightly different than the next. My only advice is to bring a jacket!

The cruise was nice. The views were...

Sheila P, Aug 2017

The cruise was nice. The views were beautiful and the music was enjoyable. As people noted, the food was fine. I recommend if the weather is nice to get a seat on top and just stay there. It is stuffy and crowded in the cabin where the buffet is located. If I were to do it again, I would just book the cruise and skip the bus tour. It was very short, we couldn't hear the tour guide and the tour guide provided no commentary on the boat. It was definitely not worth any additional cost for that portion.

It was nice to see the sun setting...

jacki s, Jul 2017

It was nice to see the sun setting over Prague, and get a different perspective of the city, but it was difficult to get up and down the stairs with food. And the food was not great.

Christa N, Jun 2017

The cruise on the river was lovely. The food wasn't terrible but it was nothing to write home about. The musical entertainment was OK. All in all I'm glad we went, and we had a good time.

John S, May 2017

First, this tour starts on the other side of old town from the river so you spend time riding in a bus to the river. Our small group was added to an existing tour may be normal which was already crowded. The entire outside seating area was taken when we arrived, so our group was put into a private inside dining room at the front. This room was not properly cooled and sitting at the front in direct sunlight. Prague was experiencing a bit of a heat wave and so the room was unbearably hot. It was much cooler outside however, the outside was full of other diners so there was no place to enjoy that. There was a small space on the back, but if you spent too much time there, the fumes from the engine would probably make you sick. The food was pretty good and the only reason this didn't get one star. Also the musical entertainment was very good, but the volume was too loud for a dinner cruise.

The river cruise was in the main a...

MICHAEL L, Apr 2017

The river cruise was in the main a very enjoyable experience. The pick up and trip to the river was short and limited in information given. The trip itself was lovely with beautiful views from the river of the charles bridge and the castle and viewpoint in the distance. The three hours passed very quickly. The only negative was the buffet which was not only limited in its quality but luke warm. The cake as dessert was dry and not very appetising. on the positive side the entertainment provided by the Dixielanders was great and provided very good music for all. The service was efficient from the waiters though they seemed keen on people continuing to purchase drinks and reluctant to accept that we did not want to purchase more and pay our bill. overall the trip was good.
