Guided tour made the castle tour very boring.
The Castle grounds are beautiful but the guided tour was boring. Our guide was Irene, and she did not speak English very well thru her thick Czech accent. Lots of stops and just standing listening to her barely audible voice explain about every brick and stone dating back to the 13th century. It would be much better to keep the tour moving instead of so much standing and listening to non pertinent details. I recommend going solo with an audio guide if you can. That would afford a much more enjoyable experience.
Oh and by the way.....the bus just dumps you at the castle. You are on your own to get out of the castle grounds and make your way back to the town square or for the optional boat. This is quite a distance, so be prepared for extensive walking and stair climbing.

Well guided by the crowds
- all target points are absolutely overflowing. Even the nice guide can't change that. But it leads you through the masses
- Start and bus ride to the exit point a bit hectic

Dear Martin,

Read the blurb carefully
Knowledgeable and effective guide - thank you. However, take heed of the end of tour information - it is on the blurb, but easy to miss - you are left at the top of the castle hill to make your own way back down into town - two trams to get to the boat trip. A lot of walking and self-organisation required, which some less mobile people would struggle with. The coach bit of it was actually just transport up to the castle, not the tour I expected. Again, perhaps I should have paid more attention when I booked it before arriving, so this is not supposed to be a moan, but hopefully helpful information for other people.

Wonderful tour!!
Such an interesting tour! Our guide was just lovely and did a fantastic job!! Really enjoyed it! At end, we were able to explore the shops (great little cafe there if you turn left where you come into the shops).
She gave great directions on how to get out of there & get back over to Old Town. But instead of going across first bridge you come to, turn right, walk about 10 minutes & you can get to the Charles Bridge and cross there!

Prague Castle Tour and Boat Ride Combo
Overall, we found the tour of Prague castle grounds adequate. The guide did not know that the castle was closed when we stood in line, and we had to return after the tour was completed to tour the castle.
The boat ride was quite good.

Bad choice
This tour is only for castle and around area. The guide girls speak too much.. and we watch only few
Operator response
Dear Georgios,
thank you for your review. We investigated the situation and as we heard you left the group at the castle at the beginning of the tour. Yes, as it is written at the description of the tour, it is Prague castle interiors guided tour and you got ticket for the boat.
Hope you enjoyed your trip in Prague anyway.
Best wishes,

Prague Castle with Lucie of 100 Spires City Tours
The 100 Spires City Tours seeing Prague Castle with Lucie although on a very cold rainy day was an interesting experience. Despite the poor weather Lucie battled through the elements to provide interesting facts about the castles history, timed the visit to include the changing of the guard and pointed out many significant features which we would have missed. Very worthwhile if you want to understand an important aspect of Prague history

Abandoned at Golden Lane
A bit disorganized in the beginning. I am in a wheelchair and although there were people getting on a small bus, the guide had my husband and I wait, saying another bus is coming that would be for the tour. He was wrong.
The guide told some interesting stories and was extremely helpful with the logistics of the wheelchair while in the castle. However there are 2 things- First, the boat for the cruise was quite a distance from the castle. We were left on our own to find our way there. For the cost, there should have been a bus to take us from the castle to the boat. Second, the guide literally abandoned us at the Golden Lane instead of at a train station as advertised. Getting out of Golden Lane was an adventure. We didn't know where we were going and it was difficult to navigate the very irregular cobblestones of the Golden Lane. Once we finally left the castle grounds, we found a taxi and just went back to our hotel, forgoing the river cruise.
Operator response
Dear Vicki,
thank you for your review. We hope you anjeyed it anyway despite written issues. As we have written in the schedule of the tour, the tour ends at the Golden Lane and after that you can take a cruise anytime, anyday by yourself.
Best wishes,
