What To Expect

Steeped in more than 1,000 years of history, Prague serves up a layer cake of ancient, medieval and contemporary sights that make it one of Europe’s greatest cities for sightseeing.
Bursting with Gothic, Romanesque and Baroque architecture, cobbled squares, grand museums and buzzing shops, all set across a patchwork of districts, wide avenues and medieval lanes, one of the best ways to explore is on a hop-on, hop-off City Sightseeing bus that saves you the hassle of finding own way around the sights.
With your ticket, board your open-top, double-decker bus, let the sights roll by and hop on and off at any of the seven stops as you please. Discover the cobbled streets of Prague Old Town, view the majestic Charles Bridge and perhaps hop off to admire the handsome Mala Strana district or at Hlavní Nádraží station to view its striking Art Nouveau façade. 

Hop on and off to create your own sightseeing itinerary or stay aboard for a full loop (roughly 1.5 hours), taking in the sights as you listen to the illuminating onboard audio commentary.

 Your City Sightseeing ticket also includes a 1.5-hour walking tour of Prague Castle, a 1-hour walking tour of Prague’s Jewish Quarter, and a 1-hour cruise along the Vltava River. Choose to take any or all of the daily tours during the 48-hour timeframe of your City Sightseeing ticket, joining them at the set departure points and times.
Delve into UNESCO-listed Prague Castle to witness its palaces, churches and courtyards; see the synagogues and landmarks of the atmospheric Jewish Quarter, and admire Prague’s riverside sights from the water as you cruise along the Vltava and listen to the interesting onboard commentary.

Overbooked and disorganised.
Hayley_C, Mar 2024
Company overbooked the buses. We arrived early for the first bus of the day, to then be told it was overbooked, so we had to wait over an hour for the next bus to come, then when it came we had to push through the crowd to get on. The bus does do all the sites and the commentary was good.

Great way to see the sights - hop on hop off bus
Wendy_G, Feb 2024
A good way to see the attractions of Prague with information whilst you travel around - friendly driver and assistant.
The bus drives past two time.
andy_b, Jan 2024
Being at a bus stop, and the bus went by two different times and did not stop.... Best part was the boat. But overall it not worth the money
A great overview of Prague
Anne_E, Dec 2023
A very good way to see the main points of interest in order to then decide where to visit on another occasion or to just hop off at a place of interest
Great way to start the trip
Darrell_C, Nov 2023
Whenever I visit a new city I always begin with the Hop on Hep off bus. It is a great way to get an orientation of the city and get a feel for the places where I want to return and spend more time. This is a great way to have the city introduced to you. The bus allows you to jump off (Which I did) and spend a little more time exploring befor coninuting the tour.

Yuliya_P, Oct 2023
The guide was on the phone for a while speaking other language. The bus stops are not well designated. The schedule is not followed. Poor organization
Response from Host, Oct 2023
Dear Yuliya, Thanks for leaving a comment. We are sorry to read that our ticket did not adapt to your necessities. We will take note on your thoughts to keep improving our service. We hope that despite all, you were able to enjoy the city of Prague. Kind regards, Customer support agent
A comfortable way to get your bearings in a new city
Judy_B, Oct 2023
Very good assistant on each bus. Timing good. Boat trip was a definite plus. Clearer signing on bus stops would help
Response from Host, Oct 2023
Dear Customer, Thanks for leaving a review! We are happy to hear that everything went smooth and that you enjoyed the tour. Hope to see you back soon! Yours sincerely, Customer support agent
The narrative on the bus...
John_B, Aug 2023
The narrative on the bus was horrible. We have used hp on hop off in many different places and it was great. We didn’t get off the bus at any stops because we were scared we would never see them again. We had to wait almost an hour each dayjusttogeton the bus
Response from Host, Aug 2023
Dear Customer, Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience with us, it means a lot to us. We would like to apology that the hop on/off option ended up not being the best experience possible, we will take notes on your thoughts and use them to improve our service.

We hope to see you soon in Prague or any of more than hundreds of our destinations. Kind regards, Customer support agent.
Waiting for our refund......
DrMonica_F, Jul 2023
Waiting for 3 hours for the bus not to ever show up. River cruise- waited almost 1 and 1/2 hours.... nothing.... this is unacceptable.
Buy tickets directly from tour company!
Sandra_F, Jul 2023
Had to travel to tour company kiosk to exchange the ticket info Viator sent for an actual ticket so that wasted over an hour of our time which was limited. Buy directly from the tour group!
Response from Host, Sep 2023
Dear Customer, First of all, we want to thank you for your opinion. We are sorry that this was your perception of the tour. We take note of your comments to continue improving as much as possible and continue to guarantee a great service to all our customers. Kind regards, Customer support agent
Skip this hop-on, hop-off bus tour.
Karyl_V, Jul 2023
We waited for a good 30 minutes on 6/7/23 for a bus to come around to our pick-up location. I was hoping for a live tour guide but we were given ear buds to listen to a below average recording of what we were seeing, often not sure of what we were supposed to look at during the tour. It was warm on the bus and I wish we wouldn't have done this tour. I've done so many awesome hop-on, hop-off bus tours around the world with live guides and have always enjoyed them. Not this one!
Response from Host, Sep 2023
Dear Customer, First of all, we want to thank you for your opinion. We are sorry that this was your perception of the tour. We recommend our customers to check the bus frequency in our website in order to avoid long waitings. In this case, the frequency is 30 minutes. Also, note that, as detailed in our web, this tour included audio-guide. We take note of your comments to continue improving as much as possible and continue to guarantee a great service to all our customers. Kind regards, Customer support agent
Disappointing Service and Overpriced
Thomas_V, Jul 2023
Bus stops are not well signed and very difficult to locate. The ‘Blue Line’ bus attendants are unfriendly and there were more people than seats. Need to add more blue line busses in high season. You could be left waiting up to 1 hour to get on a Blue Line bus. Prague old city is very walkable, not that large, and this service offers very poor value for $$. While Hop on/off is excellent in many countries, I recommend avoiding this service in Prague
Terrible
Vicki_S, Jun 2023
The staff at stops were rude and having to go to the main office was ridiculous. We found it difficult to find a stop and thought it was a waste of money
Under-delivered
Denise_R, Jun 2023
Long delays, most guests had to request head phones and brochures when boarding. Stood for over an hour at a stop to switch from green to red line, but bus never showed up. I eventually bailed. You’re better off using the team, metro and a self-guided tour app
Great Bus Tour of Prague
Jay_H, Jun 2023
Great bus tour of the city of Prague. Audio ear buds gave good information (in 23 language options) and was well coordinated with the drive. Only downside was that the side windows would not open on the single level bus that we were on. It was hard to take photographs through the tinted windows. Found out latter that they had a two level open top bus option, but that was not an option at the location where we boarded. Recommend this city tour.
Great way to explore
David_S, Jun 2023
I was on a short trip and had just one day to explore Prague. This was a great way of doing it. You can get alight at any of the stops where you want to explore a bit more, and then just get back on the bus again.
I had a problem with my...
Michelle_M, May 2023
I had a problem with my ticket as it did not state that it is for 48 hours. Our trip on the bus was thus delayed by at least 30min. The lady at the kiosk where I had to get our tickets gave me the roundabout. After I have shown her the email and ticket she still requested I contact viator. Eventually after some time she contacted someone who confirmed the 48 hour ticket. After that we had an enjoyable tour.
Good HOHO with boat ride
Robert_B, May 2023
Good experience, had 24 hr pass with boat option. Hoho was as expected and ran pretty much on schedule. Really enjoyed boat ride. J
Disappointed in the line because we had to wait so long.
Kathy_A, May 2023
We had to wait for over an hour in the morning to catch the bus. Should start at 9, not 10:30. There was only 1 bus for the red line. No benches to sit on to wait. Need to identify the number of the stop on the sign which should be distinquishable from the other hop on hop offs & city bus lline.
Better than expected.
Janice_P, Apr 2023
Finding the right first stop was confusing and frustrating. As a single woman with limited physical stamina, it was also unnerving. City information office gave me the map for the competition. There weren't signs at 90% of the stops. Inspite of the idiots hotdoggging on electric scooters the bus driver carefully and patiently steered through their shenanigans. Fatima was a doll. At the end of the day she walked me to the right tram so that I could navigate to my hotel. As it turns out, the last stop was closer than where the city information office sent me. The maps are almost useless because the street names aren't printed clearly and pictures of the site is plastered all over the place. As with most Hop on Hop off tours the commentary doesn't always match the actual location at the time.
