- Prague Castle - Discover the fascinating 1,100-year old history behind the worldâs largest castle complex on a small group 3-hour walking tour of Prague Castle and the Royal District with an historian guide. This guided walking tour will take you to the imposing Prague Castle atop Hradčany Hill through the Royal Garden and over the Stag Moat. See the ancient buildings, that have been constructed and reconstructed in every architectural style, incorporating Romanesque, Gothic, Baroque, Rococo, Renaissance, and Neoclassical monuments. Learn about the Castle buildings from your historian guide and how these have been bombarded by artillery, plundered by marauding armies and left to deteriorate by indifferent Austrian Emperors over the years. Allow your guide to bring this history to life with their vast knowledge of the countryâs turbulent past. We recommend booking an afternoon tour if your schedule allows as the castle complex is often less crowded then.

Excellent Castle Tour with Katrin! - We had an amazing castle tour with Katrin! We learned so much history about the castle and Lesser Town that we never would have known if we had tried to walk around the castle on our own. Katrin is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. You can tell that she is very passionate about history and enjoys her job. Take this tour... you won't regret it!

The right guide makes all the difference, and Vadim is the BEST! - This was the very best tour we have ever been on! Vadim was an amazing guide, and kept myself and my 15 year old son engaged and fascinated the whole time. His knowledge was extensive, and the interesting facts he shared about Prague's history brought the city to life. I highly recommend booking this tour. My only regret is that we did the tour at the end of our trip instead of the beginning. We were disappointed we didn't get to explore the city with the perspective that Vadim shared. We'll just have to go back.
P.S. We loved the tour so much, we booked one with Insight Cities Vienna right after. 5 stars for that one, too!

Best tour of our trip in the golden triangle - The history of the architecture, nobility, emperors and religion. Our guide was very knowledgeable and personable. He shared many interesting antidotes throughout the tour. He also suggested additional places to visit on our next 2 days in Prague.

Best private Prague Castle Tour you can get! - This is one of the best tours I have ever had. Vadim is simply incredible. What makes his style so noteworthy is how he brings history to life in a way that only the best tour guides/teachers can. When you take this tour he sets the stage for the various historical times periods making sure you understand all the significant ideas of the time as well as the important historical figures. I have not felt so engaged with the history of a place then on this tour. He also knows the best places to stop for some incredible Czech beer and food.

Great Tour and Great Guide! - Vadim was an excellent tour guide! He is extremely knowledgeable and it was obvious that he did the research and knew the material and that he wasn't reading from a script. He pointed out all the little details I would have missed. He was able to answer all our questions and was very friendly and kept everyone engaged in the tour. The best part was he knew a great pub or brewery near everything! Great tour highly recommend!

Vadim and the Prague Castle - The Prague Castle and its grounds are beautiful, but unless you go with a guide like Vadim, you'll miss so much of the history and nuances of Czech culture. Vadim is smart, witty, and deeply knowledgable guide.

Vadim sees the big picture - We really loved this tour! What sets Vadim apart is the entertaining way he weaves together the specifics of the Castle's buildings and events to the whole of European history, including architecture and philosophy.
