Was really simple and lovely. Boat was clean and tidy and spacious with a top floor or you can stay on the ground floor in the warmth. Top floor is better for nicer photo opportunities and feeling the wind about you. Overhead audio spoken in many languages to tell you about sights we pass.

It was a quick trip to see the major sites along the Vltava river. A good options when travelling with little kids as it’s exciting enough to keep them intrigued & short enough to not bore them. Lots of hot & cold beverage options but none for kids. Having juices, hot chocolate & food options (there is only chips & granola bars served) would be great.

I’d pre booked this trip prior to coming to Prague. Unfortunately on the day the weather was rather wet so I was a tad soaked before going on the boat and during the trip it kept raining on and off. But it was a good informative trip where you saw things you might not have done and it was nice seeing them by river. There are a couple of boats that go out around the same time as each other so the boat isn’t over full which is nice.

We were late for our time slot as the plane was delayed two hours, however they were really helpful and simply put us on the next boat. It's a basic boat journey and the commentary was poor and almost indistinguishable, however it was relatively cheap and the sights themselves were enjoyable. Drinks on board (payable) were a bouns.

Lovley boat trip with nice views. Staff friendly and considerate. Hot drinks available on the boat. The information on the tannoy about the landmarks couldn't be heard due to a table of very loud tour guides. The driver tried to tell them numerous times to be quiet which was appreciated. Good value for money!

The app is very handy as we just showed our booking and got straight on.. Easy to find and very straight forward. Great seating with or without shade. As stated our ticket was foe coffee and cake but we could have a beer or soft drink option too. However the staff were not aware of this and tried to say no just coffee not beer. They were happy to accept my mobile booking which clearly stated the options and we were given beer and cake without a problem. Be also aware that you can't see anymore from the boat than you can on foot despite the advertising but I'd still recommend it for a chill for weary feet!!

An hour well spent. I'd recommend the tour to everyone. It's a lovely experience and you can get some great photos. there is some information on board but it's hard to hear. you can sit upstairs or downstairs. downstairs has a bar and also sells hot drinks. the hot chocolate was gorgeous. A good activity to do alone or in a group no matter what age
