Worst tour I have ever done. Waste of money.

William_n, May 2024

This was one of the worst tours we have ever been on. Three locations. The first one we a cellar in a bar and he showed us where the water raised to some years ago. Told us about how the land had to be raised because of the flooding. The second and third location were next to each other. These had been filled with old looking torcher tools plastic skeletons. This tour was more suitable for a ghost tour but again a very poor one at that. This was a total waste of money. Nothing to do with any history of Prague. Don’t waste your money and time on this tour. Give it a big thumbs down.

Good tour

Judith_P, May 2024

The guide was excellent and the tour was interesting. The only negative thing was the man with a deep voice who was translating for someone, and it made it difficult to hear the guide.

Brilliant Tour

Maureen_D, May 2024

Excellent tour, guide very informative. Well worth the money. The Dungeon must be my favourite part of the tour.

Be prepared to play “Wheel of Misfortune “

Margaret_M, May 2024

Very interesting tour. The tour guide, Maki, was informative with both the Old Town facts and legends as well as the tunnels. I was saddened to discover that only three sites currently exist to tour.

Lauren_P, Apr 2024

We lucked out and had a Sunday evening with just four in our group! I think her name is Elis or was it Alice? 4/28/2024 at 5:30 pm was our tour. She was charming and engaging and prepared. It’s a great way to see a little history!

Informative and worth the money

Emma_B, Apr 2024

Very informative. Amazing tour guide (Milos) Definitely worth the money and trip out. Get to see the areas of Prague you don't usually get to

Fun experience! Recommend

Amanda_K, Apr 2024

There are 3 underground parts the guide takes you. The guide is very friendly, funny and outgoing. During the tour she made sure the group stayed together and warned about the low doorpost.

Unique experience.

kianafatahian, Apr 2024

Our guide was wonderful and very knowledgeable. My only note- the guide had a very thick accent which made it hard to understand at times.

Loved it!

Ashley_D, Apr 2024

Veronica our guide was hilarious and excellent! 90 minutes, perfect length, learned a little bit about the city while seeing some awesome caverns along the way! 100% would recommend!

Hokey "dungeon" tour not worth the money

Mark_P, Apr 2024

What was billed as a "dungeon tour" really should have been called the Prague basement tour. We visited three separate locations, one was a basement of an old house, and two were pub basements that were used for storage. Although the ancient floors and walls could appear to be from a dungeon, they are not. They are simply very old basements with props such as skeletons, torture devices, and a taxidermy tiger!? placed in them. Our guide did her best to sell it, but it was just too hokey. The tour was cheap ( @$24 per person) so I told my wife before it started not to expect too much. We were still disappointed.. This tour would be a hard pass for me.

Exceptional

Annmarie_P, Apr 2024

Charles our tour guide was exceptional. His narrative was educational without being tediously boring. Not sure if you can select your guide, so consider yourself lucky if you get him.

Dungeons

Rachael_H, Apr 2024

Lots of historical information about Prague, very interesting. Difficult to find the meeting point and was late. Very easily moved us to the next group which was excellent.

Very Enjoyable!

Patrick_G, Apr 2024

Surprisingly good. Very entertaining! Maxim was a great guide and a true historian. This tour offers a lot of medieval history.

Amazing tour!

Teresa_C, Apr 2024

Mikaela was excellent! Entertaining and informative. We got to see secret stairs and hidden doorways that we would never have found on our own. Loved it! Highly recommended.

Just about ok for an hour and a half tour

Emma_C, Apr 2024

It was OK. Went to 2 different underground parts in the old town. It was just interesting … no more.

The tour was just not...

Jens_H, Apr 2024

The tour was just not good. First of all the dungeons were just 3 different basements and half of them were filled with fantasy stuff. 70% of the time you walk through the streets. The tourguide does not wait on the entire group when the guide gives informations and a lot of the informations are really random and off topic like facts about pricey food or the most expensive street in Prague. I can't recomend it especially not for 25$.

An education in Prague!

Claire_G, Apr 2024

We had the pleasure of having Maki as our tour guide. Excellent English and a good sense of humour. Really brought the history of Prague to life and I learnt a few new things too. A real pleasure to be part of the tour on our last evening of Prague. Thank you!

Great Experience

Marina_K, Apr 2024

It was a great guided tour and Maki did a wonderful job in keeping everyone engaged. There were a lot of interesting points.

Grand tour!

Chloe_L, Apr 2024

The whole tour was AMAZING! Who knew that this tour would take us under a pub to an underground castle? It was truly amazing to see the city as it was a century ago below the city as we know today. Tom was fab. He was really knowledgeable about the tour and answered all our questions with ease. For anybody humming and harring about this tour, please book it! You won’t regret it and I hope you have Tom as a guide!

Terrific tour!

Susan_S, Mar 2024

Our guide was wonderful. He made if fun and informative. We learned a lot about the history of Prague which was an added bonus.
