A definite must-do! - So glad we did this when we were in Prague back in May. So easy & we loved having 2 options for the tour… outskirts or city center. We did it all! Well worth the $$, which really wasn’t very expensive at all!

Average Experience - Some interesting history provided and good to see some of the sites away from Old Town. However buses often sat for ages waiting for connections - quite boring. Commentary quite sparse - could have provided more information. Bus stop at Main train station very difficult to find - should have given some directions as complex very large.

I don't recommend it. - It's not worth it at all. The local bus costs a lot less and does exactly the same. In addition, one of the worst disadvantages of this is that the service ends too early (I think at 17:00, although I don’t remember well), which means that very soon your ticket no longer serves as a bad thing; especially if you went to a distant place. The audio explanation is obvious and repeated at times. The good thing is that it is available in about 20 languages, including several Asian languages, which is fine with me so that no one is excluded; however, they could give more detailed data, curious facts or a more complete story. We paid for a ticket that included a boat tour and that was fine; very nice despite being simple. Of course, the guy who served the ticket booth was extremely friendly and charismatic, so it felt like a good service at least in that.

BEWARE - BEWARE don't lose the paper ticket they give you. We had a 48hr ticket but misplaced it on day one and they wouldn't accept the voucher I had on my phone. No paper ticket means no ride.

Incompetent staff and useless website/online tickets - Useless service and online tickets are only a voucher. You still have to go to stop one of the blue line to get a paper that is then your ticket. Bus leaves while you do this exchange. Impolite staff. They warn on their website for false ticket vendors and scams but the scam is "sightseeing prague" itself.

Don’t do it!!!! - Don’t bother this was the most lame bus tour I’ve been on catching my bus to work is more entertaining I have awarded one star for the boat trip which was very pleasant but the bus tour is a total washout. We have taken lots is city tours in many different places and they are usually a great way to get to know the city, but not this one save your money.

Just no. - Often the buses seem okay in the cities I've been to. Even though they get half-bad reviews. But here in town it's almost a waste of time, and at least a waste of money...

Rip-off - Please don't. Just a rip-off. The information in the audio guide is terrible and pathetic. Here is an example of a bad review: --- **Review: 1/5** I am extremely disappointed with my experience with City Sightseeing Prague. The tour was chaotic and poorly organized. The audio guide barely worked, and when it ran, the sound quality was miserable, so you could hardly understand anything. The buses were crowded and the seats uncomfortable. At the stops we had to wait a long time, and there was hardly any helpful information about the city or its sights. The service was also disappointing. The staff were unfriendly and unhelpful. Questions were either ignored or answered impatiently. Moreover, the price for what was offered was far too high. Overall, this was a waste of time and money. I can definitely not recommend this tour and advise everyone to choose another way to explore Prague.
