A captivating tour mixing history, mythology, and atmosphere. A wonderful evening, walking through the city and seeing it in a different light (or shadow). Lara was an incredible guide and storyteller. Highly recommend it to anyone!

Scott led us on an inspired storytelling tour through the parts of Prague we would not have seen and the legends we would not have learned of. Highly recommended

Our tour guide (story teller) Scott was amazing!! Every story was told with passion and super engaging. Definitely recommend.

Never found the meeting point!

Kristin_A, Oct 2025

We never found the group. We looked and looked. We were in a random group for a bit and then that guide said we were not in the right group. So we went back to our hotel. I have used Viator all over Istanbul for the last three days… all were amazing! And today we are using Viator again here in Prague for another tour. I’m hoping this does not happen again for the rest of our tours throughout Europe.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Dear customer, we are sorry you did not find the meeting point, however we are not at fault for that. We had many other visitors joining us on this tour. Also you could have contacted us before the tour starts and we would helped you to find the meeting point.

Kennis_D, May 2025

Fine. One of many tours going at the same time - all seem to be going to the same spots. Our guide was fine, but had obviously memorized a script, and had odd pauses that often took away any momentum to the story.

Cool stories that give a...

Francis_M, May 2025

Cool stories that give a bit of depth to what you’re seeing, and flesh out the stories in the city. Tour guide was great. Thoroughly recommend.

A Fantastic Ghost and History Tour!

Grant_W, Apr 2025

A wonderful way to spent an evening in Prague! Our story teller was fantastic and was dressed in a beautiful Victorian gown and hat thar added to the ambiance. You’ll get history and context you wouldn’t any other way!

Prague tour

Timothy_C, Mar 2025

Our tour was in Prague. George was phenomenal!!! He's a great storyteller. We had a variety of nationalities in our group, and he related to each even pulling in their cultures to some of the stories. He dropped pop cultures references in, adding to the humor. HIGHLY recommend this tour, especially if you're fortunate enough to have him as your guide/storyteller.

Cesar_G, Mar 2025

Guide will not wait for you to take pictures. I took 1 minute to take 2 pictures and the group was gone.

Response from Host, Mar 2025

Hello! This was an unfortunate situation happened by accident. The guide did not notice you stopping behind. If you would have asked they would had waited for you. You could also contact us and we would have offered you to go on the next tour.

Good fun

A fun Haunted Tales with Charisma – A Must-Do Ghost Tour!

Rida_T, Jan 2025

I always make it a point to book ghost tours whenever I visit a new city because they’re so intriguing and interesting. But oh my god, this experience was on another level! Our host’s storytelling was absolutely captivating..he brought so much charisma and energy that it stood out from all the tours I’ve done before. He was funny, engaging, and his ability to weave the stories was truly a 10/10. Highly recommended!! it was such a fun and unforgettable experience!

The tour was amazing. Georg is the best guide. He knows a lot about the city and is funny, you can tell he loves his job. We had a great time and learnt a lot of interesting things about Prague and its history.

Lara is great

Anna_K, Dec 2024

Lara is a great story taller. Despite a cold weather we stayed till the end. Was really interesting and we googled the stories, was all true :)

Dull as dull can be

Benjamin_G, Dec 2024

Discovering parts of Prague previously unseen. The church of St James was at least authentic and inspired a subsequent visit for a photo opportunity

Response from Host, Dec 2024

Dear customer, we are sorry to hear that you did not enjoy the activity. We would like to offer you a free participation to the same tour or another tour have with a different guide. Best wishes, Mysterium Tours

Excellent!

Rhian_H, Nov 2024

Superb evening, with great ghost stories, well worth the money. If you want a different perspective on this beautiful city this is highly recommended.

Eyal_K, Nov 2024

Eally interesting stories, told in a unique environment at night, while the walking around is not too long and really easy

not at all scary, but very entertaining and fun storytelling evening!

Sarder_K, Oct 2024

Initially it was a bit difficult to find the place (google maps did not help, the descriptions on the event page did), and we took our time to identify the guide. But he was very good in story telling and kept us entertained throughout. We visited 4 or 5 places and heard the stories associated with those places, which was good fun (he is very good in storytelling). I wish there were a few more stops and stories, that would have been really brilliant!

Spend your time doing something more worthwhile.

Maria_h, Sep 2024

Absolutely waste of time. This was a story telling tour about people who have died. Nothing spooky about it. No mystery about any of it. No chills no nothing. Just boredom. I was done after the first story.
