Great Tour - Oscar was a fantastic guide. He really committed to the character and was a wonderful storyteller. It was really interesting getting to learn about the Prague of the Medieval Period

Night watchman experience - Really interesting ! David took us back through time so we could relive the night watchman’s experience. He was dressed in similar clothes to the watchman and carried staff and lantern . Explained a lot of Prague history and even though it was dark and showery all added to the atmosphere of the gruesome life lead by the people of the past .

Excellent tour with Thomas - I thought I had signed up for the Nightwatchman tour, but evidently had signed up for the plague doctor in error. However, we absolutely loved the plague doctor tour! It was unexpectedly funny, super informative and interesting. Thomas clearly has a gift for acting and storytelling. He made this experience exceptional. Both my husband and I really enjoyed and would recommend to others. Fascinating topic and delivery with Thomas.

Entertaining and Informative. Great guide. - Lovely experience. David was fantastic as our nightwatchman bringing in the history of the city as well as some personal anecdotes to make the tour very interesting. The tour was a very small group of about 7 and David was very clear and entertaining during the tour. He also gave us some tips to navigate the lovely city of Prague. Definitely recommend.

Excellent tour with great history - We enjoyed this tour and the history. Thomas was very knowledgeable and entertaining. My teens said this made them want to do more "touristy things."
