Prague famous old watch - It was amazing to be in the crowd awaiting for the watch to be 6:00 pm so the watch will start to move and the windows will be open.. I recommend visiting it if you are in Prague

Very top - I advise you to go up first thing, since the price is at 50% this is at 9:00 am, go to the front door of the office forms queue, you store it and at 9 o'clock it opens, it really is worth it

Worth your time - Our guide was excellent and very knowledgeable. He spoke great English and I loved that he showed us the good squares in honor of those who died in the Holocaust. I learned so much about the clock and I’m glad to have had the information to enjoy it so much more. Absolutely do this tour AND go to the top of the tower.

Great Way To Learn About The Clock - This was a perfect way to learn about the clock right before it rang. The guide was very informative and spoke clearly. My only complaint would be that there was no guided tour of the inside of the clock.

To see once - Famous place, worth seeing once, just to tick ✅. Interesting historical facts were provided to us by our guide. But, nothing really impressive 😕

Don't suggest this tour - I would not suggest this tour, the 20 minute guided walk from where you get tickets to tower could easily be skipped. Guide was friendly, but really don't remember anything he said. Beware, while there are TWO elevators, your ticket only let's you ride the first one. Additional charge for second. East to walk ramps to the top, if you don't use the second elevator. Views are beautiful from the top. Especially watching the packed crowd watching the clock's action.

Non-Value Added - STOP and read what you're getting. This does not include a tour of the Astronomical Clock tower. It includes a narrated walk to the clock and an entrance ticket, which could be purchased directly for about $12. I received 2 emails with location links, one to the tower and one to the tour operator's location. We went to the tower first which was a mistake, resulting in us arriving late for the "tour". In the email directions to the tour operator location said "look for the blue and white umbrella." It is a small sign with a blue and white umbrella. We were looking for an actual umbrella. The provided ticket does not include access to the elevator to the top. The guide was very soft spoken and most of the time when he was talking his back was turned.

Really Bad Experience - This one was so bad it felt like a scam. We had trouble finding the location where the tour would start as it was not very clear in the instructions. The guide, David, was incredibly rude and explained, slowly, how stupid we were. Never did get the tour we paid for. We just walked back to the clock for entry into the stairs to the top of the Astronomical Clock. If I knew how bad this would be, I would have saved myself money by purchasing the tickets for entry to the Astronomical Clock at the clock location. It's unfortunate that this was our first experience in Prague, not a great first impression.

If you want to waste time - Mandatory stop if you want to waste time. Astronomical clock: Unless you are a physicist, the only thing you can understand is what time it is. The clock is almost non-existent. No puppets or figures come out, nothing. There are only sounds and you can see figures inside the wall during the chimes, but nothing much. Do something else, it's a waste of time and disappointment.

Disappointing - This attraction, which is considered one of the most iconic in Prague, was quite disappointing as it has nothing in particular. Great as a background for photos
