Anna provided an excellent introduction to Prague covering history, architecture, and legends. We enjoyed the walk. Great to try public transit up the hill to the castle with a pleasant walking descent through a vineyard with outstanding views of the city. Anna’s enthusiasm for Prague makes the time fly by. Enjoyable boat ride at the end.

Our tour guide, Jana, was phenomenal. She was extremely informative and displayed interest in her clients. Jana spent five hours with us (before leaving us to take the river boat cruise) patiently explaining Czech history and answering our questions. She was attentive to all of us and made sure we were always engaged. We highly recommend this tour--and if you are fortunate enough to be led by Jana, we are confident you will thoroughly enjoy the experience.

Great History Lesson of Prague

Maggie_N, Sep 2026
What a great tour! Buma was engaging, knowledgeable, and considerate. I saw and learned things that I would never had experienced on my own. I highly recommend this tour.

Great way to learn Prague history

Deanna_J, Sep 2026
Ross was great!! Very informative. Lunch was in the Old Town Square, very good with lots of options for traditional Czech food, vegan, vegetarian, etc. Boat is through a different company; nice views but could be a +/-. Highly recommend this tour group!

Worth it!

Teresa_Z, Sep 2026
Worth the time and money especially if you want to hit all the major spots. Our guide Jane was terrific. Very knowledgeable and allowed our group to go on the first boat because the tour was running about 20 minutes behind and we had another excursion planned after. It was worth the time and money if you want to see the city.

Most picturesque city in Europe!!

DAVID_G, Sep 2026
This is a phenomenal tour. It’s a full day tour which ends in a boat ride. That further explains many detail details about some of the things you have seen in some you have not seen. Our guide was fantastic. Her name isJANNA.

Exceptional Tour Guide and Organized Tour

Joy_C, Sep 2026
Ross was an excellent tour guide! He was very knowledgeable and shared info all along the way. It was also cool to hear his personal stories about growing up in the country. He also knew exactly where to stand to see the clock and the changing of the guards, without a long wait to save a spot. Also, this tour was exceptionally organized! They give out headphones so you can hear what the guide said. It made all the difference on a busy day of tourists on Saturday. Also, they make sure to have you see all the highlights, and the place for lunch was a great restaurant and quiet spot to eat, even on a busy day because they reserve you a booth.

Wonderful Walking Tour of Prague!

Brittany_P, Sep 2026
Ross was a fabulous tour guide! Incredibly knowledgeable, and made the day fun! Loved learning about the beautiful city of Prague and its history. 10/10 would recommend!

Vicente_V, Sep 2026
It is very informative. It also entails a lot of walking and may be challenging for those who have difficulty in walking like me. But Ross, our guide, had been amazingly patient with me. He is very knowledgeable and I really appreciate how clearly he told us the complicated history of Prague and the Czech Republic.

Ross was an excellent guide. The historical facts he shared were interesting and held our attention. Great way to see the sites and decide what you want to further investigate on your own.

Prague is 😍

George_G, Sep 2026
It was a wonderful tour! The beauty and history of the city is wonderful to see and hear. The host, Ross, was super nice and the depth of his knowledge is truly impressive! The lunch was fantastic and fun ending the tour with a boat ride. The tour lasts about 10,500 steps so that might be a negative if you have trouble standing or walking.

Malissa_T, Sep 2026
Very informative. It covered alot of the old town. Lunch was all right. The guide was very good. Very good for your 1st day.

D&D do Prague

Dale_M, Sep 2026
There is a lot of walking, but it is moderate pace and lots of stops. Our guide Ross was amazing. First of all, he spoke excellent English and was easy to understand (unlike some of our previous tour guides). He was extremely knowledgeable and he peppered his talks with occasional humor. You will see everything on this tour. And hopefully you'll get Ross!! He was awesome!

It is the best of Prague and more.

Alvin_T, Sep 2026
We loved the whole experience. Learning of the history of the people layered with knowledge of the architecture and the various languages was enlightening. Ross kept a tight ship with enough rest breaks but a good pace. Be ready to do a lot of walking but the meal and beer at the end of the tour was perfect. You can also relax on the boat ride of the scenery to end the tour. My wife made a suggestion to bring spare earbuds. They provide a good audio receiver to hear Ross our guide but bringing your own earbuds to plug into a regular audio jack will make you able to hear better. Overall an awesome experience.

Booma was an awesome...

David_R, Sep 2026
Booma was an awesome guide. Not sure how she has that much information in her head! Highly recommend, especially if you’re looking for detailed history on Prague.

Great tour, Ross was excellent

Donald_D, Sep 2026
Ross was great. Highly recommend. He is very knowledgeable and courteous and is easy to understand. Best walking tour in the 4 Capital Cities we visited. Sights are amazing, history fascinating. Note: the lunch is 4 hours in at about 2 pm so bring a snack if need be.

Thomas_M, Sep 2026
Tomas was a great tour guide. Knew all the historical facts of Prague and having lived through the communist times had a unique insight. Pace of tour was good and lots of rest points to take photos along the way. Lunch was decent Boat tour was good too. I didn't do the Charles bridge museum so can't comment.

Prague guided tour and river cruise

Naomi_T, Sep 2026
Excellent tour, guided by Ross who we found to be extremely knowledgeable, friendly and attentive to everyone’s needs. He had a great insight into Prague's history, architecture and culture. Would certainly recommend the tour, we thoroughly enjoyed it and learnt so much about The Czech Republic Thank you

Wonderful tour, wonderful guide

Rosemary_T, Sep 2026
Ross our guide was wonderful. He is a passionate Czech and gave us a great overview of history, cultural and historic sites and interesting facts about the Czech Republic in the past and current Czech lifestyle. His explanations were very clear and he gave me opportunities to sit along the way. The time went incredibly quickly. Great tour, great guide. I would recommend it and any tour Ross gave.

Prague unoacked

william_k, Sep 2026
This tour will give you all that you need to get a grasp on Prague. Our tour guide Booma was exceptional. I really like how she explained the difference between how she saw the Soviets and how her parents saw them.

Great Tour - Fantastic Guide

Sarah_B, Sep 2026
Great tour. Tour guide, Tomas, was very knowledgeable and tried to accomodate the needs and interests of the group. I personally wouldn’t bother with the boat tour if I did it again. You don’t really see anything that you haven’t already seen on the walking tour. Lunch was great. Service fantastic in the restaurant and I think everyone would be able to find something from the choices available.

Very informative

Yvonne_M, Sep 2026
This was a very informative and long tour. Russ was our guide. I would suggest you bring a bottle of water as we did not stop for lunch until 1:30. Wear good walking shoes.

A delight

gary_s, Sep 2026
Booma was wonderful! Excellent guide and very knowledgeable. She really knew her stuff. It was so sad it comes to an end at the boat cruise. Keep her please, she is a delight! Walking for five hours is tough. So be ready. But you see everything

A Day in Prague

Cheryl_S, Sep 2026
Ross was our guide and he was great. Love how much of the history we learned from a true local. He knew the places to go to avoid the crowds and always made sure we had some shade to stand in. There is a lot of walking.
