Enchanting Nighttime Journey - Martin D was a fantastic guide on our Alchemy and Mysteries of Prague Castle tour! His deep knowledge of the castle’s history, alchemy, and astrology made the experience truly captivating. He shared fascinating stories and lesser-known legends that brought the magic of Prague Castle to life. We appreciated his thoughtful approach and ability to create such an immersive experience during the quieter, nighttime hours. Highly recommend this tour and Martin as a guide!

Simply Get on this Tour of the Castle and City - This trip had to be one of the best we did. Martin D was an awesome guide Great tour around the city when there isn’t many … well other tourists about! Additionally, the groups are always about mid size so you can hear everything. Additionally, Marty D does slow up and watches for you Bonus in Dec as it’s dark at 4:30 so everything looks SOOO MUCH BETTER! Highly Recommended

The Alchemists' Road with Pavel - What an exciting and mind-blowing tour! As a charismatic and energetic guide, Pavel combined the nighty strolls up and down Prague's most insidious and splendid places (churches, corridors, palaces, THE castle, narrow streets and hidden spots) with a gripping blend of history, architecture, alchemy and cultural insights. Small groups make great talks and we also enjoyed a wonderful foggy sight of Prague from the castle.

See Historic Prague in a Different Light - We loved our nighttime walk with Allen, a very amiable and knowledgable guide who kept us interested during the entire tour with tales of Prague's history. We covered a good bit of ground, starting in Old Town Square and finishing up at the Castle, but Allen kept the pace very relaxed and was happy to answer all of our questions, which often lead to some amusing (and occasionally chilling) anecdotes. There's nothing like walking around the Castle grounds at night, especially with someone who knows all of its secrets. Highly recommended for those who have seen the usual sights but want to experience something more.
