Amazing walking tour in Prague - Our guide was Daniel and he was fantastic. A really great way to see the city and get your bearings, I would recommend doing it at the start of your visit to Prague as it gives you a great idea where you want to spend your time during your stay. Daniel was so proud of his city and explained the history in a really interesting way. He was very passionate about his city and made the whole walk so enjoyable. It’s 2 hours 45 mins which goes really quickly and at a good walking pace. It’s great that you pay a tip for the tour based on what you think it was worth at the end. I would highly recommend.

Amazing, thrilling and cultural tour. - I, along with my family had the pleasure of experiencing a tip-based tour of Prague led by Real Prague Guides on 26-Oct-2024, and it was truly one of the highlights of my trip. Our guide, Petr, was fantastic. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable about the city’s history, architecture, and culture, but he also had a witty, engaging style that kept the entire group entertained from start to finish.
The tour covered many of the must-see spots around Prague, including Old Town Square, the Astronomical Clock, Charles Bridge, and a few hidden gems that we would have missed on our own. Petr had a knack for bringing the city's rich history to life, weaving in stories about medieval times, communist rule, and Czech legends, all with an added touch of humor that kept things lively.
What made the experience particularly enjoyable was Petr’s ability to adapt his storytelling style to fit the group’s energy. He encouraged questions and had a fun, laid-back approach, making everyone feel welcome. Despite the tour being tip-based, there was no pressure to rush or upsell; Petr’s genuine love for Prague and passion for sharing its stories were clear from the start.
I’d highly recommend Real Prague Guides, especially if you’re looking for an informative yet relaxed and entertaining way to explore the city. And if you’re lucky enough to get Petr as your guide, you’re in for a treat!

Unsure - Wasn’t sure what to expect as we’re not Jazz lovers. Food good, lovely chilled relaxing atmosphere and staff were amazing. Oh and the prices of the drinks onboard were no more expensive than other places. Good value for money

Worthwhile tour to get an overview - I joined this tour as the first thing I did in Prague, and it helped me get an overview of the city, visiting many of the famous sites, and the tour guide gave us a few hints about other things to do and see in Prague. Even after splitting into two groups with two guides, I was in a large-ish group of about twenty people. There are many other walking tours in Prague stopping at the same buildings or street corners, and some streets are so busy and noisy, that it felt a bit crowded, that we were getting in the way of other people. I would have preferred to skip a couple of the very well known spots like the astronomical clock (that I knew about and could visit myself at a quieter time) and visit a few more lesser-known spots instead, that only locals know about.

Good, but big group and a bit long - There were more than 30 people in the group instead of just 8 as promised. At 2 1/2 hours overall a little too long. The 3 Euro booking fee obviously did not count, so clear request for tips (?)
