Great Walking Prague History Tour - This was a great way to cover a lot of ground and history with Prague. Allen was an excellent guide, with a deep knowledge of Prague history. He also has a unique perspective as an American that has lived in Prague for decades. Be prepared to walk a lot -- but that's the best way to experience Prague!

Amazing tour of Prague castle!! - Allen is extremely knowledgeable! He even has an iPad where he shows you a map and explains more in detail the history of the area you are in. He took us to areas of the castle I had not seen in my previous tour. Plus, he pointed out the gardens in the castle which was very neat to explore on my own time after the tour. Allen also recommended a great place to eat and drink a monk monastery brewery which was excellent.

Excellent Prague main attractions tour - Hi, Allen was out tour guide and he did a comprehensive tour for his explaining the intricate details of the history and Prague architecture. He went a step further and gave more context about the different rulers and the evolution of Prague and its beautiful buildings. He never rushed and was patient. Highly recommend this tour! Please note that this tour covers a scenic boat ride in the Vltava river but does not cover the interiors of the castle for which you need to go on your own or book a separate tour.

What a great way to experience Prague! - We had a fantastic time on our tour with Vojta! He was not only incredibly knowledgeable about the city and its rich history, but also brought a great sense of humor that made the whole experience fun and engaging. His deep insights into the castle and surrounding area gave us a whole new appreciation for Prague. We truly enjoyed the tour and would highly recommend Vojta to anyone looking for a guide who’s both informative and entertaining!

Lovely tour of Charles bridge, Prague Castle and River cruise - Christof was our tour guide on Sunday 6th July at 1.30. To say it was only his 2nd tour on his own, he was a fantastic historian, with very good English. We were in a group of 4 with 1 other couple and had really enjoyable afternoon looking at Pragues historic landmarks, including a river cruise and visit to Prague Castle, and Charles Bridge.
