A quick but very pleasant little tour. The ticket comes with a drink and a snack, which makes for a peaceful boat ride (smaller group than some of the other tours, maybe a max of 15-20 people) around the river. The audio guide points out some interesting history associated with the Charles Bridge, old town, River, lesser town, etc. Meanwhile it’s fun to explore the river and a small little canal as well. Boats leave every 15-20 mins so it’s easy to fit into your schedule.

Very nice cruise. Welcoming staff. The ticket office for the exchange of tickets is very easy to find: next to the church, a large "museum" sign with stairs. Boarding is done behind the building where we pick up the tickets. You can choose your drink from 3 choices then we will give you a snack + headphones for the audio guide which is available in French. I recommend

It was relaxing and we got a good idea of the history of the Charles Bridge and landmarks of Prague city. We get a beverage and little snack(ginger bread /icecream bar) with audioguide. The boat is vintage style look so you get the experience which is better than other high speed boats. You get a ticket to Charles Bridge Museum which was not so fascinating for me.

Nice tour overall. Very limited in area covered. Basically just does a few loops around Charles Bridge. The complimentary drink and snack was nice and so were the headphones we were given to listen to the audio in our language. Information shared was also interesting

A nice little tour along the river. Short enough free beer and ice cream. You get to see the canals and the main events from the river. def recommend if you don't have too much time. The ladies at the ticket office were extremely rude when we picked up the ticket, really felt like a computer says no situation.
