2Misleading Tour title
I have been on several Viator experiences and this one was extremely misleading. The title is Prague Castle tour . The reality is we saw two beautiful churches I signed up for a castle tour not a cathedral tour. I’ve been to many cathedrals and I prefer going to castles. We did not enter a castle. We did not hear much about a castle. Our guide was very informative about Prague and I enjoyed that part but I feel I was totally deceived by the title of this tour. I tried to contact anyone at Viator but was unable to speak to anyone. I believe I am entitled to a refund
52 thumbs up!
Enjoyed a very informative and entertaining 3 hour walking tour with Peter who is a professor at Charles University. He was very funny and passionate about the history of this beautiful city. The tour started in Old Town and took us across Charles Bridge and then up to Prague Castle. Learned so much about the city, throughout history up until today. So glad we didn't just visit the Castle on our own - we would have missed out on so much!
5Great tour of Prague Castle
Steve was a fantastic guide. He was very informative and funny. The route was crowded with other tourists and he still managed to keep the group of 16 together. At 70 we were the oldest on this tour but the pace was very manageable. We would definitely recommend it.
5Castle tour condensed
Pablo was a good tour guide. Very knowledgeable on Castle and history of Prague. This was a good booking and does not take the entire day.
2So so
Tour was to be 2.5 hours but Hamat the guide said it would be 3 hours. He was very knowledgeable however his talk was way too detailed about change in governments, religions, etc. He spoke for 45 minutes before we even started to walk. We finally got to the Palace with only 1 hour to visit. We abandoned the tour and finished on our own.
5Wonderful Castle and Charles Bridge Tour
Our guide had a very outgoing and positive personality. She had a very indepth knowledge of the city and castle. It was clear that as a local she had a pride and enthusiasm for the city and the many places that she highlighted. One of the best such tours I have been on. Her English was excellent!

About Prague
Prague's skyline of spires rises over the Vltava, with a hilltop castle, statue-lined bridge and a medieval old town that survived largely intact.
Prague Castle, one of the largest castle complexes anywhere, crowns the hill of Hradčany, with St Vitus Cathedral at its centre and the tiny houses of Golden Lane tucked behind. Below, the Lesser Town's Baroque palaces and terraced gardens lead down to the Charles Bridge, lined with statues of saints and busy from dawn.
Top-ranked sights in Prague: Charles Bridge (Karluv Most), Prague Castle (Pražský Hrad), Prague Old Town Square (Staromestské Námestí).
