Out of this world experience - If I could rate this experience with 6 stars, I would. On 26 March my friend and I joined the night walk with Anna, if I remember right. She is absolutely the very best. She is English, no doubt, and her English is soooo beautiful. She’ll catch you, and she will take you on a journey to the darkest stories of Prague. She has a wonderful way of storytelling, she must have a lot of experience or maybe she has a profession in that area. The stories are lovely, and so very vivid and alive when told by her. She’ll take you by the hand and let you experience Prague in a completely different way. We absolutely loved it. Also, she was dressed as if stepped straight out of Victorian times, with beautiful little details. It suited her perfectly. Absolutely fabulous, a once-in-a-lifetime experience and we felt very lucky to have joined this wonderful tour. Thank you!!! And so sorry for this belated review!

A few laughs, spooky history, and a fabulous guide - I appreciated the small group led by George, our guide, who actually got us involved in the storytelling. We had a nice views of Prague at night and enjoyed the spooky stories with a lot of laughs sprinkled in. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants something a little different to do in Prague at night.

Great storytelling and great locations. - We had originally booked on the Alchemy tour, but this was cancelled due to low numbers. The tour company got in touch well in advance and offered us the ghost tour instead, which we accepted. Lara our guide was a fabulous story teller and told so many interesting stories about the buildings and locations in Prague, it really brought the city to life. I would definitely recommend going on this tour.

The tour was very good,... - The tour was very good, the guide Lara in a period dress was very artistic and expressive.
Still there are minor concerns:
- The lexicon of the tour was over-advanced. I understand that it was done for the artistic effect, but the audience of English-speaking tours are seldom native English speakers, usually they are people who just couldn't find a tour in their mother tongue. I, being an ex-teacher of English, understood such words as "crawling", "lingering", "protruding" etc, but almost no one else in the group did. I heard people talking, and they were just bewildered and could not grasp the meaning of the stories.
- The stories are way too long. Some of them took up to 15 minutes - during which we were just standing and trying to get what it is all about (see my first note about the language). It would really serve well to shorten the stories, make them maybe less literary and posh, but more interactive and vivid.
Thank you :)
