Our guide, George, brought all the sites in Secrets of Secrets to life! Loved that he read passages from book while at the actual sites!
Response from Host, Nov 2026
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was a pleasure showing you around Prague and exploring the fascinating locations connected to Dan Brown's The Secret of Secrets. We're delighted that you enjoyed hearing excerpts from the novel at the very places where the story unfolds, as well as discovering the rich history, mysteries, and hidden treasures of this beautiful city!
If you can only do one tour in Prague, then do this one! Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable, so kind, and a lot of fun. He incorporated Dan Brown’s book in such a seamless way that makes me excited to read it on my way home. You don’t have to read the book before the tour. The tour itself covers so much history and ground (you start near the Prague castle and end near Old Town). Our guide had so many great stories about the history of Prague that will definitely stick with us. We always do Viator tours when we go on vacation, but this is by far the best one we’ve done in any country.

Thank you for taking the time to share such a lovely review! We had a wonderful time showing you around Prague. It's great to hear that you enjoyed following in the footsteps of Dan Brown's The Secret of Secrets, especially hearing excerpts from the book at the actual locations featured in the story. We're just as happy that you enjoyed getting to know more about this beautiful and fascinating city!
George provided an excellent tour! I really enjoyed hearing the passages at each site! Great tour, thank you!
Response from Host, Oct 2026
Thank you very much! We aim to please!
Our guide, George, was very knowledgeable and provided interesting details on historical sites beyond just the Dan Brown connections. I think the tour would still be excellent without reading the book (The Secret of Secrets), but it’s probably more fun if you have. George is entertaining, friendly, smart and fun. Highly recommend!
Response from Host, Oct 2026
Thank you for your kind words and excellent review! It was a genuine pleasure introducing you to the wonders of Prague. We're especially happy that you appreciated the readings from Dan Brown's The Secret of Secrets at the locations that inspired the story. Sharing Prague's remarkable history and fascinating secrets with our guests is always a pleasure.
Our guide, George, did a great job of connecting the book and the history. I learned a lot on the tour and enjoyed the other travelers.
Response from Host, Sep 2026
Thank you very much, it was lovely to have you with our group, walking around the sites of this beautiful city.
Very detailed and extremely knowledgeable! We learned so much but he was very entertaining (so it didn’t feel like school). Highly recommended if you liked the book.
Response from Host, Aug 2026
Thank you for your kind review. It was a real pleasure guiding you through the city of secrets, sharing with you passages from the book by Dan Brown.
This was a fantastic tour! We had a great time, seeing Prague through the eyes of the secret of secrets. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and very kind to my daughter (she has a big Dan Brown fan). The tour is highly recommended and works for mixed groups of fans and non-fans. Kni
Response from Host, Aug 2026
Thank you very much! It was a pleasure having you on our tour. We’re especially happy to hear your daughter had a great time - she is by far the biggest Dan Brown fan we’ve had so far. We truly appreciate the recommendation, and we hope to see you again in Prague.
George is an excellent guide with charts, pictures and a copy of the Secret of Secrets marked to share pertinent passages at various sights. One thing out of his control was the record breaking heat of the day but he does have that insider familiarity to keep us in shade as much as possible. We really enjoyed learning more about the history and important events of Prague’s past, learning more about the symbols George pointed out along the way, and finding the facts and the artistic license points in the Dan Brown book.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Thank you very much for your lovely review. We are delighted that you enjoyed your time with us. Despite the Prague heat, we found some shade, took our time, and had a wonderful morning exploring the city’s cobblestone streets together.
Great walk around the city. Lots of fascinating information., whether you’re a Dan Brown fan or not. Really a great value!
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Thank you for your kind words and for taking the time to write this review. We are so pleased that you enjoyed the tour. It was definitely a hot morning in Prague, but staying in the shade helped us make the most of a beautiful walk through the city’s historic cobblestone streets.
Took the Secret of Secrets inspired tour, the tour was a perfect mix of the book, symbols, history and storytelling. Wish history lessons in school were this informative and entertaining. In 3.5 hours, I fell in love with Prague and couldn’t wait to learn more. George was friendly, witty and full of knowledge. Would take additional tours with this guide.
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Thank you sooo much for your nice review. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your time with us and that we were able to make your holiday a memorable experience
This tour was our favorite experience in Prague! George is a charming, knowledgeable historian who combines the history of Prague with the mysteries of alchemy, symbolism, and numerology referenced in Dan Brown's book, The Secret of Secrets. While strolling through major locations in the Castle District, Old Town, and the Jewish Quarter, my husband and I were immersed in the magic of Prague as George read short excerpts from Secrets and focused on details such as signs, carved motifs, and visual clues. At the end of the tour, he shared a final secret...a hidden underground tavern where we enjoyed the most delicious meal of our vacation! This is a tour you do not want to miss, even if you haven't read Secret of Secrets! Please don't hesitate to book...It will exceed your expectations!
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you very much for your kind review. We are very happy to know that you enjoyed your experience. PS: Yes, the restaurant was amazing, maybe it should be added to the tour? :)
Exactly what we were hoping for and a little more! Very pleasant stroll through the landmarks of the book with some history intertwined.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
It was a genuine pleasure to guide you through Prague and share some of the city’s hidden stories and secrets. I’m very glad to hear that you enjoyed the experience, and I hope the memories stay with you long after your visit.
A great way to start my trip exploring the secrets of Prague. George is an excellent guide and came very prepared to show you the history of Czech. Even if you don’t read the book, you will still be able to understand the story behind the architecture. He turned up despite the rain and was very gracious to take some photos for me. I very much enjoyed his tour and now I am more willing to finish reading the book with relevance references after the tour .
George is an outstanding guide! Very pleasant and caring. We saw some of the major locations from the book and George read some passages to put them in reference and then provided more detail about the locations. I highly recommend the tour!
We went on the Secrets tour and it was absolutely fantastic. Our guide, George, was incredibly knowledgeable and engaging, and even my 7-year-old enjoyed all the stories. It was surreal to stand at the actual locations and see the scenes unfold in real life. A particularly lovely touch was George reading short excerpts from the book at each site, which really brought the experience to life. We also visited a charming coffee house where he even played the piano. An unforgettable experience—highly recommended. Thank you!
I read new Dan Brown book (in Czech) and then I saw this tour and oh my god it was fantastic! The guide read parts of book at different places and it was so cool, I could imagine I was in story. He also told so much about Prague mysteries and I was like enjoying it so much. For sure recommend!
An absolutely wonderful tour—the guide was very friendly, explained everything perfectly, and had a wealth of knowledge. What's more, it was all very entertaining. I highly recommend it!
The guide was very friendly and knows a lot. He talked about Dan Brown’s book and the history of Prague. Perfect morning tour.
