Karolina was a very enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide, gave us lots of info on the history of Prague. This tour is perfect to get an overview of all the main tourist sights. Feels a bit rushed at times but you get to take in most of Prague in half a day so definitely worth it if you’re short on time.

Nice guide, even if not everything was always super understandable. In some places I would have liked more explanation. But all in all very good tour to get to know Prague. It was ok for the kids (8 and 13), but not quite as ideal. Because it's also long. And appeals more to adults. Everything went quite quickly, no waiting times. However, I would have liked to have seen a little more of the castle. The stay there is quite short. You should do this again. Guido also gives lots of tips on what else to look at. By ship to finish was great! However, the bus is quite narrow.

The bus tour wasn't that exciting, it was more of a feeder ride to the castle with a small detour. But when you look at the overall package, price and time, it was all within the range. Recommended as a first overview of Prague.

The tour gave you a taste of all the main sights in Prague. Tour guide was excellent; informative and friendly. It would be a good idea to do this the first day you arrive in the city as then you can decide which spots you might want to explore in greater depth.

A very complete experience to get to know the key points of the city if you don't have a lot of time available, our guide was exceptional telling us the history of the city, the castle and the old town, the only thing I would have liked is that they left us more time in the castle to tour it all, time is a little tight.

Great tour guide. But on the boat ride we could not hear anything the recorded tour audio was saying. Luckily our tour guide came to check on us and told us what we were seeing.
