Fantastic tour — highlight of our time in Prague
This fantastic walking tour was easily the best thing we did in Prague. Our tour guide Amalka is such a star — she’s a born and bred Prague local with a fascinating story of her own, so walking with her is like seeing the city and its history through her eyes. She’s super smart and friendly and our tour group was very small so felt like plenty of chances to ask questions and converse. Would take another tour with her any time!

Excellent way to be introduced to Prague
We took this private tour the morning after we arrived in Prague and found it extremely helpful in setting a foundation to build on as we spent an additional 3 days in the city. Amalka was an amazing and entertaining guide who blended historical knowledge with family stories. We learned so much and would highly recommend this tour.

The tour made the trip! 100% would tour again.
This tour made our entire trip! Brilliant tour guide Vadim took us on a perfectly-paced walking tour filled with just the right amount of fun, history, and recommendations. He pointed us towards a restaurant at the end of our tour that we'd never have chosen ourself, but it ended up being one of the highlights. He read us perfectly! Will be choosing Insight Cities for more tours in the future.

We're happy you had a great time with Vadim! He is truly a fantastic guide.
