Our host Jachym was superb from start to finish. Doing all three tours (Old Town, boat cruise, Castle) made for a long day, but we had plenty of time to stop off for a beer or two and to have some lunch along the way. Overall can’t fault it. Jachym’s knowledge of Prague was seemingly endless, we’ll do more tours with this team next time we come visit. Thoroughly recommend, a "great deal" value product.

Tour guide was extremely informative and nice. She answered and explained all our questions and made us smile. The underground and dungeon was also very interesting to see. Also loved the details put in the dungeons like the skeletons, torture equipment etc.

Fabulous and historically interesting with a knowledgable friendly guide who was engaging and chatty and very knowledgeable about Prague. The time went really quickly, very informative and highly recommended

Fun activity,got 2 drinks,well worth the money. No rush just chilled,went back the next day,definitely recommend.

Zach was an amazing guide and time just fly by. I really recommend this activity!
