Good range of food. Lovely boat and attentive staff. Bit disappointing not to get a coffee at the end of meal with dessert and to be charged for that. Minor thing but surprised not to have a coffee included at end of meal with dessert. Band were good if you like jazz. Really pretty at night to see the lights of Prague. Worth doing.

It was ok, we took de De luxe places in front of the boat which I can only recommend because of the views you have and the relatively quietness compared to the middle section. Food buffet was ok, what you can expect in these circumstances. Staff was very friendly! What was annoying were the lights inside when it was darker outside. You couldn’t enjoy the views as you only saw the reflection of the lights inside and the people sitting inside. After asking twice to please turn down the lights, they were dimmed, a bit better, but still not perfect. So taking pictures of Prague by night is not doable inside the boat

Lovely way to see Prague at night. Beautiful boat with a glass roof, friendly staff and delicious food served as both a hot and cold buffet. We had a window seat so saw lots of amazing sights and went up to the outside Upper deck which was gorgeous. Drinks were well priced and the service was efficient and attentive Brilliant live band played for us which was really lovely to listen too. I'm not keen on the fact travellers were smoking on the upper deck. I had assumed it was non smoking vesile but it didn't ruin the night.

Dinner on Vlatva is what you need after a hard week! Of course, there are a lot of tourists around at this dinner, and it's a little noisy, but the view is just magical! We couldn't enjoy the music, the accordion playing was drowned out by the buzz around. As for food and drinks, the prices for drinks are very affordable.

It was a lovely calm experience , the band were excellent and the food good. As a lone traveller however, it was not for me, a shorter more focused boat trip would have been better, it was full of groups and couples who knew better than me about the boat!

It was a very informative and interesting city tour. Prague is a beautiful city and Irina knew how to convey a lot of history in a charming and competent way. The tour was very entertaining. On the way stop at the Lobkowicz Palace Restaurant + Café for a hot drink and the very best homemade apple strudel in Prague. For lunch there were dumplings with goulash and the boat trip on the Vltava brought everything closer from the water's perspective. We recommend ! Thank you and thumbs up!

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

For anybody looking to see the best that Prague has to offer, the Vltava River has to be experienced. The longest river in the Czech Republic, the Vltava River is home to a variety of cruises. 

Sometimes there’s just nothing like taking a relaxing and serene boat cruise to make the most out of any sightseeing trip. Today, we want to provide you with an idea of what cruises on Vlatava River entail and what you can expect.

Types of Cruises on the Vlatava River

A large variety of cruise options are available for you on the Vltava River. This includes a variety of shorter trips that only take up a small part of your day, to full-day excursions that combine boat cruises and guided Prague city sightseeing.

Let’s take a look at some of the cruise options available on the Vlatava River.

Lunch and Dinner Cruises

The Vlatava River is the perfect place to take a lunch or dinner cruise, with plenty being offered. For instance, the Vlatava Riverwalk with lunch on an open-top glass boat makes for the perfect midday adventure, complete with awesome sights and even better food. 

If you’d rather see the river and the surrounding area by night, the Crystal Dinner cruise is another fantastic option, one that has you enjoying a three-hour buffet on a modern and stylish boat.

Short Sightseeing Cruises

For those who just want a short sightseeing trip, there are plenty of these options available too, with the 45-minute sightseeing boat trip to Devil’s Channel being one of the most popular.

If 45 minutes isn’t quite enough for you, try the Prague River Boat Cruise and Guided Tour, which lasts for 90 minutes.

Guided tours like these are great for people who want to learn about the history of Prague while getting interesting tidbits of info about all of the sights.

Evening Cruises

For a romantic experience with your partner, an evening cruise is recommended. An evening cruise has you meandering down the Vlatava River while the surrounding area is illuminated by city lights. Evening cruises generally don’t last that long, but they make for the perfect option for a quick trip on the water.

Wooden Raft Cruises

One of the most exciting types of cruises on the Vlatava River is the wooden raft cruise, of which there are a few options to consider. 

For instance, the Cesky Krumlov Advent Wooden Raft River Cruise has you taking a quick 30-minute trip on a unique yet modern wooden raft along with guided commentary. 

A wooden raft tour is a fantastic option for anyone who enjoys a more rustic approach to sightseeing and boat cruising.

All-Day Cruises and Tours

For those who want to take in as much of Prague as possible, going on an all-day Vlatava River cruise and Prague city tour is the way to go. One great example is the six-hour Castle and Jewish Quarter Tour with Cruise and Lunch. There are also half-day guided bus and walking tours of the city, culminating in a peaceful cruise on the Vlatava River.

Duration

Just as there is plenty of variety in terms of Vlatava River cruise pricing, there are also various durations for these cruises.
