This was a really great private tour, that offered flexibility. Filip was an awesome guide. We stopped by a Saturday market in Pilsen before walking around the old town square. In between the brewery museum and the Karlstejn castle we picked up some local food and drinks. It was a really chill. I had a great time! Would recommend!

Stepan did an incredible job, very knowledgeable and accommodating. We booked a private tour; we were the only couple on the tour, and he made the experience totally worth it. The castle is beautiful and Pilsen is a fun walk.
Totally enjoyed our day with Nikolai going to Karlstejn Castle and Plzen. Nikolai was very knowledgeable about the history of the sites and made extra efforts to ensure our day was a great experience. 5-star rating all the way!
I spent the day with Juraj who took me to Karlštejn Castle and Pilsen. We had time to do the basic tour of the castle and admire the views from the castle and surrounding areas. Then we took a scenic drive to Pilsen where we visited to Pilsen museum and brewery. We ate a very good Czech lunch and had time to look around the gift shop where I purchased some beer glasses, and then walked around the town square. Juraj was very knowledgeable about the histories to the castle and Pilsen, and he was very accommodating the whole day. I would recommend this trip to everyone interested in Czech history, beer, and beautiful Bohemian landscapes.
Beautiful castle! Make sure to see the castle well. And we took a tour of the underground tunnels in Pilsen, which was interesting.
The castle was amazing and had so much history! The little village leading up to the castle had a lot of nice little shops for gifts, food, etc. And visiting Pilsen was a nice break from busy Prague! Our guide as friendly and had a lot of great information for us about the castle, about Pilsen, and about Czech culture in general. Would recommend this trip!
Amazing time. Filip was amazing, easy going , knowledgeable and fun! The town of Karlstejn is absolutely gorgeous! Keep in mind that the castle is close on Monday but you can still see the outside and stroll down the street! Pilsen is nice and the brewery very fun to see and the beer delicious. Highly recommend that tour specials if you are short on time and want to see those 2 sights !!!
