Great Introduction to the castle area - This was a great introduction, especially to the castle area. Jana was so wonderful and knowledgeable. Really enjoyed it. We took the 2 hour tour and ended up at the castle. We were then able to explore on our own as Jana provided tickets to the major sights.

fantastic guide, worth every penny - Our guide was fantastic--being a native Czech, he was so informative and provided so much rich information and history that really brought the whole city to life, not just the parts that were on our tour. Even with technical difficulties with the microphones, he was wonderful!

Great tour on our first morning in Prague - Jana was very friendly and knowledgable. There wasn’t a big group and we were given additional ideas for things to do during our trip.

A must in Prague - Hannah was perfect! Her major in art history really enriched our tour, and you can tell how passionate she is about this city, she even brought posters of the dinasties to explain the history to us. Just want to say thank you one more time.

Nice but... - I thought the tour was perfectly fine and our guide did a good job keeping the tour moving and was interesting to listen too. However, the wording of the listing was confusing. We thought we were getting a guided tour of the interiors of the castle including the ticket. I think you need to have a look at your listing from the perspective of someone looking to book the tour. It says walking tour with interiors....

buy your own tickets for Prague Castle - This was a waste of money. Just buy your own tickets to get into Prague Castle complex. Tour started at east end of Charles Bridge.
