Great night tour of Prague with a twist - My family (kids 15,11,8,5) had a very nice tour with Martin! We liked the tour focused on interesting facts about rulers and his scientists and advisors. My children thought the stories were very interesting and stayed entertained the whole time. Martin had a wealth of knowledge and a smooth delivery! We learned a lot of interesting stories! The cathedral view at night was well worth it too! *caveat this was pretty hilly walking and stairs. We took my 65 yo mom who has had a knee replacement and she struggled. In retrospect, we should not have taken her.

Beautiful at night - Very fun to wander the castle at night. Pablo was very knowledgeable and the lack of tourists was magical. Fun to hear some things you don’t hear on a regular tour

Knowledgeable Tour Guide - We had a great time with Martin D. on this walking tour. Our group was only 4 people, which made for an intimate experience. Walking the Old Town in the evening was perfect, since it allowed us to have a spacious, almost private view of the landmarks we explored. Taking this tour during off-hours allowed us to easily view places we may not have known about or thought were not worthy of a visit. Our guide, Martin D, was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and patient with us. We wish we could book all future walking tours in Prague with Martin D!

Ghost tour with tour guide David. - The tour was fascinating! We accidentally booked the german tour instead of the english one,but we could join the english group with no problem. The tour was about 2 hours long,but time flew away fast with our amazing tour guide, David. Will 100% go again in our next visit to Prague.

Lots of fascinating stories - Martin D was a great tour guide! He was friendly, patient and knowledgeable. I was particularly interested in the history of alchemy, so this tour was perfect for me. Martin told us lots of fascinating stories about old Prague, and his English and explanations were very clear. I highly recommend this to everyone who is interested in the history and legends!
