I did this tour early in the morning as recommended by several sites online. I started around 8 AM and the streets were empty. Definitely recommend as the streets can get very crowded and touristy very quickly. The route was accurate, the descriptions are accurate. I highly recommend voice map, which is the app in which this Tour is through. I’ve used them in many other European cities. As long as you have cell phone service, it works perfect at tracking your location. The descriptions are great and you don’t even have to take your phone out of your pocket.

I thought it was wonderful. Best $5 I have spent. Amazing that it can actually track you
Very informative and easy to follow if you have internet cellular service. We could not get the off-line version to load and play after it was downloaded.
Easy to follow self guided tour! Enjoyed the ability to go at my own pace. The Narrator was good and nice voice.
The walking tour was very convenient and easy to use. It was very informative and I’d highly recommend doing this tour to truly know the rich history of this beautiful city.
The narrative was interesting but we had a lot of issues with the app. It did not follow us and kept telling us we were lost, when we were not lost. We had to keep hitting the forward button in order to hear the next information.....but the app kept interrupting as we walked, telling us we were lost. Make sure you take the walking tour earlier in the day. When we went the synagogue was closed. The tour itself is interesting. Just make sure you have the map pulled up so you have another way to find your way in case the app does not follow you.
Absolutely useless, GPS signal didn't work, no clear directions were given We ended up turning it off after 15 minutes.
I feel we should get a refund! two of us paid and there was no way that we found to share the the code . In addition, I was able to access the first stop, however, we weren’t able to follow the map in order to get to the next site. We ended up not using it and buying an audio tour through the Jewish quarter. We are very upset with how this particular tour was handled Ed! How do we get a refund for something we were not able to use?
Learned some new facts but personally did not find this that useful as we went into the synagogues, and that part is skipped over in the tour and then it gets all annoying with the app. Would recommend if you are not interested in entering the synagogues.
Great information and great directions in the Prague Jewish Quarter. The map included in the tour was accurate and helpful.
This was a great way to learn about the Jewish Quarter! To have an audio tour with an expert but to do it at our pace was awesome. Our guide was informative, easy to follow and understand. The GPS kept us on track and would alert if we went the wrong way. Highly recommend this tour, especially since the Jewish Getto doesn’t really exist anymore. I wouldn’t want to spend money on a long tour.
I feel like a human guide would've been a little better, but this was a great option for last minute, which was our situation. We did get off track a few times. We paid to go into the synagogues which was an additional cost not associated with this tour. That was worth paying for and we did it along with this tour. When you pay for the synagogue tours. They also offer an additional tour that's audio. Since we were already doing this one. We didn't do that one. I don't know if it would have been more informative in terms of the religious aspects and significance. I do know it did not cover as much ground as this tour.
The guide was easy to understand and shared just the right amount of info so that we could learn, but not be overwhelmed.
A fun and cheap way to get a good tour of the jeweish quarter. I used voicemap before in other countries and I love the concept. You can decide your own pace (take a break whenever you want) since there's no group or actual guide present. It gives you a lot of information and the map is easy to follow (believe me, if I can keep track everybody can) I would highly recommended.
This was a great walking tour. It takes around 75 minutes, and the guide does an outstanding job of giving directions and making sure you’re looking at exactly what you’re meant to see. A lot of times, it’s easy to get lost during these recorded tours but this one gave really precise directions. I feel like we saw everything there was to see in the Jewish quarter, and we got some great stories and information. I recommend this tour.
This thorough and highly informative tour allowed me to discover the best of Prague’s Jewish Quarter. Jana is an amazing storyteller and I’ll definitely look for some other tours of hers! Well done!
Excellent directions and very forgiving if you make a wrong turn. Got more info from this tour than from previous day’s in-person tour guide.
We had heard the Jewish Quarter was an interesting part of the city to explore but we had no tour planned or had any background information. So we purchased this to get some history. It turned out to be one of our favorite things we did in Prague. Prague is best seen by foot, just walking around and exploring, and the audio guide gave us a great background to the city. We learned lots about the Jewish Quarter and the city itself. It made us feel connected to the city. So thankful we purchased this!
Removing the criticisms of the historical moment, one cannot fail to visit the Synagogues present in Prague. The most beautiful in my opinion is the Spanish Synagogue
Guida davvero completa e interessante. Ti consente di fare un tour a piedi della città con una descrizione storico artistica davvero buona. Anche il percorso è facile da seguire anche con l'aiuto della mappa mostrata sul telefono. Consigliata.
Monday through Friday 9 am to 7 pm EST
