Amazing churches, very knowledgeable guide!!! - This was a very enriching tour during which we learnt lots of interesting facts about varied religions. Mostly I liked the Holy Spirit curch (Armenian apostolic church)!! Incredibly spiritual atmosphere there!! In the other churches as well. Very recommendable experience for those who are interested in religion and science of religion as the guide (Martin) turned out to be really a knowledgeable professional.

Outstanding experience, would gladly do it again - The best tour guide you could possibly have in Prague. He was polite, well-educated, flexible, and agreed to do our tour on very short notice. Such a great experience. Due to our requests, it became a church history tour. We visited several very old Catholic churches and cathedrals, several churches where Jan Hus used to preach, saw the Jewish quarter, etc. Just cannot thank the company and the tour enough. What a great day in Prague.

We had a fabulous guide, Peter. A... - <p>We had a fabulous guide, Peter. A history graduate of Charles University, he was incredibly knowledgable about Czech history and the place of the different religious movements in it. He also helped us understand why Czech people today are generally so antagonistic towards organized religion. Peter was flexible and organized the tour around our somewhat eclectic interests.</p>

Religious history tour from a modern, post-religious Czech - It was very interesting to hear the perspective of a relatively young Czech on the religious history. He was very knowledgeable, and shared a great deal of information, but also shared his own experience and cynicism about the relevance and of that history to his own life.
We toured on a Monday, and many churches were closed.

Religious History of Nation that has “seen it all”! - We likely expected too much from this tour. My wife and I are both lay pastors, have spent time on the mission field, taught on the subject of CHRISTIAN CHURCH HISTORY and my wife has a BA & MA in Biblical Studies. In addition, we have been to Israel on tours 10+ times. We were especially interested in the pre-reformation era history of Jan Huss who challenged the Catholic Church and was martyred 100-years before the reform movement launched by Martin Luther in 1517.
The reality is that while the Czech Republic has a rich but checkered Christian History today those who have lived through the Communist era are not religious & our guide reflected that sentiment as reflected in these recent statistics:
Religion in the Czech Republic (2021)[1]
No religion (47.8%)
Catholicism (9.3%)
Other Christians
(2.4%)
Believers without
religion (9.6%)
Other religions (1.2%)
Undeclared (30.1%)
It was “interesting” to experience a “Religious Tour of Prague” from a guide that claimed to be an atheist… but was an accurate reflection of religion in CZ today.
We went back to Bethlehem Chapel on our own where Jan Huss preached in Czech to the people of Prague from 1402-1413.
