Great walking tour experience! - My friend and I were in Prague for a couple nights and wanted a good way to see the city. We had our tour with Jan and he didn’t disappoint. He was knowledgeable, funny, and willing to answer all of our questions. It was our first time doing a tip-based tour and we’re definitely gonna do it on the next leg of our trip. Thanks Jan!

Makes history come alive. - Jakub was an amazing and knowledgable guide. He really knew his history and was able to make the beautiful sights in Prague even more meaningful. We didn't have time to go on the WWII or Communism tours, but I'm sure they would have been fascinating.
These guys know what they're doing! Would definitely recommend.

Easy and informative - A fun and informative tour, it’s a good way to see some of the city’s best sights. Our guide Kuba was funny and informative. A decent amount of walking, but honestly pretty easy and there were breaks for refreshments/bathrooms along the way.
