Passionate tour of Prague bunker - My family and I joined this tour on Dec. 5. This is where we met tour guide L. who conveyed the content with passion and heartfelt conviction. He was able to give the participants a sense of what life in the bunker would have been like. He described what he lived as a young boy and teenager under the Russian regime. He was able to make us relive his experience of the past. I highly recommend this tour.

A fascinating tour - The tour is excellant and gives you a real idea of how Czechia was during the communist period following World War 2. Our tour guide Maki was very informative and could not do more to help us when one of our friends lost her phone.
This is definitely not your normal tour but is a fascinating experience!

Interesting - Really interesting tour, Stan was a great guide. I knew very little about the subject before, and it really hits home what life was like in Czech not very long ago.

Excellent tour very well delivered. - This tour is not your normal holiday walk as the subject matter is so dark and depressing. However our guide L, who grew up and lived through the communist rule, and had to flee the country after being "invited" for a police interview, made it a very informative learning experience with some humour thrown in along the way. We had not realised just how brutal and oppressive communist rule was for the former Republic but L explained it perfectly. If you want to learn about what happened in the Czech Republic post war this tour is a must and highly recommended. Thank you L.

Entertaining and informativr - We were more interested by the prospect of seeing the bunker rather than the walking tour but in the end it was the other way round for me. Our wonderful guide Maki was so entertaining and informative and whilst this did not stop inside the bunker the arrangement in many of the rooms seemed a bit chaotic. This did not prevent it being 3 hours very well spent, one of the highlights of our Prague trip

Good Tour - First, our tour guide was exceptional. Her mastery of the subject matter enhanced our experience. The actual tour sites brought us back to a time, not that long ago, when things were very different. The length was just right. The tour overall is worth your time.

Great insight, great tour - Our guide was interesting and passionate which always makes for a great tour. Although the subject matter is serious and sometimes awful, it is insightful, thought-provoking and peppered with some humour to give light relief to the event.
I would recommend this tour for anyone who cares about people, politics and history. The tour was 2.5 hours and involved fairly easy walking but with steps down into the bunker, so is not suitable for anyone with mobility difficulties.
