Good on you own tour with introduction - Do some research. There are so many places to visit and each one has a ticket associated. We had a ticket for 4 areas and enjoyed all. Guide was informative and spoke good English. You can spend a whole day here. Advice go early or late. It is very crowded

Experience as advertised - This experience was just as described..blue umbrella in front of the church necessary to get actual tickets and very good overview..but no real skip the line experience as there is only one line…you need to use the QR code on tickets to get free audio guide and headphones or ear pieces necessary to hear due to large crowds

Great visit! - Great visit. The only wrinkle in the experience is they don’t tell you initially where to pick up your tickets. I spent plenty of time waiting in the cathedral line, then realized that the voucher wasn’t good enough, then went to the ticket purchase line then had to be told to go outside and look for a man in a blue umbrella, who had hand me my tickets . Once the tickets were in hand, the experience was lovely.

Exciting and interesting visit to Prague Castle - Interesting and funny introduction to the history of Prague Castle by a friendly young guide. The whole castle complex is spectacular and definitely worth a visit!

Farmer catchers only - It's all about queuing up to buy tickets ... You have to queue at the end of the queue just like that, the whole thing brings zero advantage... At the cathedral it was about 1 hour . I bought online, at the handover they told me he can't find my pre-order... THAT AT 60 EURO.... Hands off...

Not what was expected - Very disappointing that a tour that is advertised as a ‘’ skip the line tour’’ is actually no such thing and you have to join queues to gain entry to the 4 places that you do have access to. Queues ranged from 50mins for the Cathedral to 20mins for the Palace!

Misleading Description/Deceptive Advertising - This was a "skip the line" with audio tour which was not the case and misleading to inexperienced visitors which most are since this is not a place most would return regularly. Admission tickets were distributed with no waiting but guests had to wait hours to enter the venues that the tickets admitted one to. The English "intro " was very entertaining but again, not informative of the procedures or exactly where things were located. We accidentally entered the palace gardens which were stunning and a welcomed respite from the huge crowds and long lines. In addition to the large crowds and lines, the cathedral was only opened for two hours the entire day which rendered it impossible to visit. We ended up giving our tickets to a local and inviting her to enjoy since we were not able to and they were good for a second day. This did not help our situation since we had a train to catch! The outside of the palace and view from the hill were beautiful but we did not use any part of the tickets we purchased. Very disappointing...

Not skip the line; Limited to 4 of the 10 areas - This is not skip the line. Rather, it’s skip the TICKET line, which was the shortest line in the place. The rest of the lines were long and we had to stand in all of them. Also, there are ten possible things to see and this ticket only allows you to see four of them.
