Nice castle tour
Started off slow as the driver was 20 minutes late in arriving due to local traffic. Only eight participants on the tour so we went in a mini van. The van was comfortable enough. Driver was friendly and made up some time getting us there. When we arrived, is about a 1-1.5 kilometer walk uphill to the castle. You can take a cab most of the way, but we all chose to walk. Once there, we were given a guided tour of the castle, which was quite informative. Castle is nice enough but not grand by any means if you have seen many castles. Nice view over the countryside and village below made for good pictures. Overall good place to visit and tour took about five hours total (not four).

Never again
Usualy have great experience with viator joined few tours in different countries ... this time 4.9. it was really poor,badly organised, even we went with owner and was just three of us, late departure, poor english, comment everything around the route not connection with Karlštejn or time of Karl IV, in Karlštejn first was his breakfast,and working calls, tried to push us do earlier tour in czech language with audio reason was he need to be back in Prague at 2o'clock, didn't offer us choises of tours in castle ( it was not clean what our tm ticket included) didn't order us money back...REALLY DISSAPOINTED

Historic and important site
Some tours on Viator dont go INSIDE the castle. That is a mistake. Grey Lines gets you to the castle and inside to enjoy its magnificence. Trust Viktor and his team. He is native Czech and is customer focused. You can count on him.

Disorganized company but our driver was really nice
We reached the meeting point about 10 minutes before the agreed upon time. The lady responsible for dispatching the people to the multiple tours seemed confused and disorganized. We were a bit worried about our tripl.
However, our drive took charge and once we left, about 30 minutes late because of all that confusion, everything was great. He was really nice and made sur that we were comfortable. Overall, we enjoyed our trip but it could have been more organized.
I would not book with Grey Line again but I would like to thank our driver Allen (not sure that's how he writes his name haha) for his professionalism. He really is the reason this review is not lower.
