Brilliant guide and experience - I had a great experience. Lenka was brilliant, very knowledgeable and patient with me as I am not 100% fitness wise. She was very accommodating and supportive. Lenka was very enthusiastic about Prague and its history, which was contagious. I can't recommend Lenka, and the experience overall, enough. 5 stars all round.

Wonderful Experience - We were visiting Prague and we had only two days, this tour gave us exactly what it promised: we got to know the best of Prague in a short time. Since we were short on time, we wanted to see the best places and also have time for ourselves. The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommended!

Perfect tour to know Prague - This tour was exactly what I needed while I was in Prague. I was only for two days and wanted to know as much as possible but also have time for me to wander around. The tour started at the meeting point and given I was staying in the center it was no problem to find it. I got a free coffee before the tour, which was a nice touch, and then the guide Lenka took me through the center to Prague Castle. It was a sunny day and I didn't mind the walk. In short, I got to see all the interesting and main points in Prague in 3 hours and it gave me enough information to be on my own for the rest of my stay. Highly recommend this tour.
