We had such a lovely time on our Prague walking tour! Our guide was wonderful and shared so much interesting history about the city. Finding the meeting point was a little tricky, but once we got started, we really enjoyed every minute!
The tour guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. Enjoyed the entire experience. Prague is a beautiful city.
Great work Viktor! You have an extremely deep understanding of Prague history. Thank you for a very personalised tour. Viktor’s delivery and organisation is outstanding! Well done Chap!
Jan our tour guide was excellent, a great mix of knowledgeable history of Prague but also intertwined with humour and interesting fun facts. Prague was incredibly busy but Jan made sure we were placed at the best locations for beautiful ohotos and especially at the clock when chiming. We paid a small fee to book and then paid Jan for his time and expertise , this could be done is cash or card. A must do tour of Prague -especially with Jan as your guide
The tour guy Jan, his English is great, introduced Prague history.... but there are too many people for one group. He was a little hurry later on.
Guide Dita was amazing, and shared lot of interesting information about the city, and on each key spots.
Dita was amazing! Knowledgeable, funny, friendly, engaging - loved it! The walk, stories, buildings - highly recommend!
Jan is so knowledgeable and approachable. We loved all the information bytes and how proud he is of Prague. Thank you Jan... highly recommend this tour!!!
Just the right length of time to get all the facts, good sized crowd, entertaining guide
Daniel was a excelent guide on this tour
Kuba was super informative and passionate, and has some great jokes up his sleeve :D !!
Kuba, our guide, was very pleasant, funny and knowledgeable! It was my first time in Prague and even though I had already been to the spots , learning the story while revisiting them made a huge difference! I recommend it.
A really interesting and enjoyable tour. James provided just the right mix of fact and entertainment.
Dita our guide was amazing! She is so knowledgeable, funny, and pleasant. We squeezed a lot in to the 2.5 hours, including some lovely local anecdotes and tips on language and food. We finished up with a sing song at the lennon wall with Dita playing her mandolin. Well done!!! Highly recommend.
Book this tour early in your Prague visit! There were some great tips about local attractions, and the introduction to the city made it much easier to get around for the remainder of our stay.
I booked this tour via Tripadvisor operated by Real Prague Guides (~$21 each for 6 people). Imagine my surprise when we arrived at the meeting spot, only to find a guide from 100 Spires City Tours and everyone else was on a FREE walking tour. Our guide Katerina was excellent. At the end of the tour, everyone else was asked to voluntarily/optionally pay what the tour was worth. I spent most of the tour feeling angry, and like I was scammed. I only hope that a large portion of the $126 ended up with the guide or at least with 100 Spires City Tours.
James was a super good guide. Great stories and took the group nicely. 10/10
This was a really comprehensive tour of old Prague. The guide -Hana- was really knowledgeable and informative and kept everyone together on a busy day. Totally recommend as a great first morning in Prague
Really get to know the city and the guide was great. Prague is amazing Architecture came to life - not to be missed
Lucy was knowledgeable and engaging throughout, providing insight that you can't find in a guide book. Well worth it.

An excellent introduction to Prague by a very knowledgeable and interesting guide. Well worth the time.
Jan was an extremely inspiring and energetic guide. I have been on many tours and he is definitely one of the best.
Great morning. Glad we started early so that later you can go back and explore more. First, make sure wear comfortable walking shoes. No doubt the stone walkways can be havoc on you legs and feet. Now let's get down to the trip. Great history and stories. The views were beautiful and don't forget to snap some photos. The stop at the clock was wonderful. Continued thru old Jewish district. Very informative. Cross the bridge and Lennon wall. Our guide spoke clear English. Very responsive towards questions. So much to see no doubt 2 hours is not enough. We did go back and retrace our steps to view a few missed areas. Thumbs 👍 up.
Probably the best walking tour I have been on in Prague. Informative, right walking pace for all, fun.

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Jakub. Booked it on our first day and it provided an excellent overview of the history of Prague as well as many great tips for the rest of our visit. Jakub was proud to show off his city and really knew his stuff! Highly recommend and a great value!
This was an amazing tour and I learned so much from it about the area. It is always better when the tour guides give their personal opinions on some locations rather than quote from script. My guide was great!
Jay was great! Enjoyed his story telling throughout the tour. There were other solo travelers and it was fun to meet everyone.
Jan was a fantastic tour guide. The walking tour was almost 3 hours long and we learned so much about the history of Prague. In addition, he provided us with great tidbits on places to go and things to see during our time in the city. We have done many walking tours during our travels, and I have to say that this was the best ever!
Fantastic guided tour with the most important sights of Prague. With a lot of extra tips for the rest of the stay. Specially to mention our guide Lucie that has an extremely good competence about the city and the history that really makes the trip.
Our guide Jay was very knowledgeable and the tour had just enough information about Prague, the history and all the main sites. The pace was just right. We returned to take better photos early morning the day after without the crowds.
