★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 70 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $217

Spend three hours exploring Prague Castle with a private local guide such as Nikola, Martin, Mark, Michaela, or George. See St. Vitus Cathedral, Vladislav Hall, St. George’s Basilica, Golden Lane, the Changing of the Guard, and a quiet garden viewpoint.

“Great tour in Prague! Our tour guide Michaela was excellent. She provided both historical and cultural commentary on the Prague castle complex. Her timing was perfect for us to see the changing of the guards at the palace. We spent about 3 hours seeing the highlights of the cathedral, several chapels, the palace, and the Golden Lane. If we had toured on our own, we would have spent all day here and not seen as much as we did with Michaela guiding us. I highly recommend this tour!”

“Abbiamo prenotato su Internet 5 biglietti per il tour in italiano e una volta arrivati al punto di ritrovo abbiamo scoperto che non esisteva nessuna guida in italiano. Dopo svariati tentativi e alcune telefonate all’agenzia fatte da noi ci è stata affidata una guida in inglese (avevamo prenotato in italiano perché due persone all’interno parlano SOLO italiano) La nostra esperienza non è iniziata nel migliore dei modi, abbiamo provato a richiedere un rimborso ma non è stato possibile. PER FORTUNA la nostra guida LINDA, è stata sorridente, gentile e professionale e ha svoltato completamente la nostra esperienza avendo anche la pazienza di attendere mentre alcuni di noi traducevano per gli…”
