Easy to book, find, and super interesting. - What a great, informative tour. It not only provided a perspective of WWII from the Czech point of view, but also an experience below the streets that was amazing. The WWII collection of artifacts put history right into our hands - amazing. The tour guide was super knowledgeable and did an excellent job. Really learned a lot and greatly enjoyed the tour!

knowledgeable guide, great experience - Knowledgeable guide who was passionate about the subject. We saw his collection of memorabilia before going to the church and crypt which has a small display about operation Anthropid. We watched the film first which I'd recommend doing too.

Prague Perspective of WW2 - Great tour. You don't normally think about Prague's involvement in WW2 so learning about the war from another perspective was very interesting.

This tour was fascinating... - This tour was fascinating & the information shared was so interesting! It was fabulous seeing the real artefacts & hearing some of the stories behind them - what they were & who they belonged to. Going to the actual site of where the men from Operation Anthropoid hid made the tour. It was also fabulous that there were only 2 others on this tour so quite an intimate tour! I would suggest as it was an extremely cold day, the first 30 minutes when we were stood in one place listening to the history & information to set up the tour & get the background information could of been done around a table in a coffee shop to stay warm & make the beginning of the tour more comfortable!

Excellent, but went on a little to long - Very informative, but when we went into the cellar, the talk went on for way to long. So much information to take in , it was a a struggle I appreciate it's a informative tour but could have done with cutting half a hour off it . The tour guide was very knowledgeable and passionate about the subject
