    Fantastic tour and David’s great

    We did the ‘Old Town, Jewish Quarter and Charles Bridge tour’ in the morning with David, which I would recommend doing before this one. We liked David so much, we also wanted to join his afternoon Castle tour! It’s an interesting tour with cool architecture and stories. And again, David is a great guide who’s very passionate, engaging, knowledgeable and funny! There’s a 30 persons limit, a little break where you can also use the restroom and you get a document full of Prague recommendations. Would highly recommend.

    Great Tour and Dita Was Wonderful

    Our tour of Prague castle was a lot of fun, and Dita was an awesome guide. She even played a Czech song for us to close out the tour, which was a nice surprise.

    Kamil was a great guide

    We enjoyed our tour very much. Do take into account that you won’t be able to enter the buildings inside the castle unless you buy a ticket for that after the tour.
