Avoid this tour operator.

Igor_K, Jan 2025
For the first time in our experience such a disgrace. This tour operator is a disgrace to the Czech Republic.

Response from Host, Jan 2025

You did not participate on this tour, so that logically you have no right to review it . You did not absolve the tour so this review is a completely irrelevant russian provocation!!! We have 4.5-4.8 average reviews rating for this tour!!!

Scary how bad the tour was

John_R, Nov 2024
Don’t go…tour guide was very boring, no inflection in his voice and a poor storyteller We left before tour was over… total waste of money!

Scary Prague

Donna_L, May 2024
Peter was very knowledgeable on gruesome history in Prague. Would love to have time to visit same areas after dark

Good activity for fun and a little local history

Lydia_B, Mar 2023
Our guide Peter was very experienced and knowledgeable and had a great dry sense of humour. Although the walk is 90 minutes it is not strenuous as there are plenty of stops to listen to the tour. Would recommend to anyone visiting.

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Dear travelers. Thank you for your nice review! We wish you all the best to your future travels.

The tour guide seemed...

Abby_O, Nov 2021
The tour guide seemed very harried and rushed. We heard a bit about the history of Prague no ghost stories. A pretty constant stream of how women are “the devil“ we almost all walked off the tour several times. Really not worth the time we desperately wanted to join some of the tours we went by where the guides actually seemed interested and telling a story.

Response from Host, Nov 2021

Dear travellers. The guide was in a rush beacause you arrived late and he had another tour after this one - so actually he had to perform a tour which normally last 90 minutes within 70-75 minutes. This was not his fault. As for devils/women, he is happily married and if he refferred women as devilish it was not his personal opinion / attitude but he qouted the medieval attitude to women - which is a hisotrical fact.

A spooky evening out! A...

Ross F, Apr 2017
A spooky evening out! A disorientating walk round the darkened streets and darker history of Prague. Guide was very friendly and was pleasantly surprised that the tour still went ahead, when there was only two of us with the guide

Gruseltour durchs nächtliche Prag

Lisa_B, Dec 2024
Peter hat die Tour trotz Dauerregen und nur 2 Teilnehmern bis zum Schluß durchgezogen. Sein Humor war sehr trocken, das muss man auch mögen, und historisch hat er uns zu Prag auch noch weitere Infos gegeben.

Response from Host, Jan 2025

Sehr geehrte Kunden, vielen Dank für Ihre nette Bewertung! ;-) Wir wünschen Ihnen Alles gute für Ihre künftige Reise! MfG Petr Maslo, Spectrum Tours

Platter Männerhumor, simple Tour ohne Besonderheiten

LenaCarolin_A, Feb 2024
Humor für Männer (wir sind 2 Frauen). Petr hat eher traditionelle Andichten und eine grobe Wortwahl. Wir haben mit einer Gruppe gerechnet, waren aber die einzigen. Die Geschichten waren relativ unterhaltsam, man muss jedoch die Bereitschaft mitbringen, verflucht zu werden.

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Sehr geehrte Kundinen. Es tut uns sehr leid, dass Sie so unzufrieden gewesen sind. Ich werde Ihre Bewertigung diesem Guide übergeben.

Schauderhafte Prag abends

Brigita_L, Oct 2023
Pan Petr ist ein super deutschsprachiger kompetenter Erzähler!!! Immer wieder gerne! Zum Schaudern in Alten Prager Stadtviertel kam sogar ein Gewitter :-) ; es hat alles komplett gepasst :-)

Nie wieder

Alena_W, Apr 2023
Leider weder so schaurig noch interessant gestaltet. Dem Tourguide hat man angemerkt, dass er keine Lust hat und dass er unbedingt im Anschluss mit Freunden trinken gehen will, worauf er mehr wert legt. Auch leider keine Kostümierung des Guides. Auch ständige Aussagen über andere Passenten wie "Die Frau ist auch eine Hexe" oder "Der stirbt auch noch" waren nach dem 10 Mal nicht mehr lustig. Kein Wiederholungsbedarf dieser Tour.

Nous avons bien aimé...

Sverine_L, Feb 2022
Nous avons bien aimé cette balade.Notre guide Anna nous a fait decouvrir Prague autrement avec ses légendes tel que le chevalier sans tête. Nous avons pu voir aussi des choses que l'on aurait jamais remarqué comme l'homme pendu de David Cerny

Response from Host, Feb 2022

Dear travellers. Thank you for your nice review and hopefully see you next time in Prague! :-)
