    Tour was really nice. We have seen a lot and the guide with explanation was fun. Learned a lot. Only the bus was not comfortable. You have a quiche stop, which is too short if you really want to enter the building. Just for a quick walk and look is perfect.

    Good option to see the city with kids for two hours. We only get off the bus when we visited the Prague castle and decided to stay there for long because 30 mins was very short to visit all around the castle district. There is an extra entrance fee for every building that you will visit. Glad that we have booked in advance too.

    Quick and easy way to explore the city. It was very enjoyable. Based on the review, I knew ahead of time the 45 minutes allotted to see the castle wasn't enough time, which it is definitely not enough time as there is alot to see. However, the tour does provide the option to get on a later bus to return to the meeting point.
