A nice overview of the city of Prague.
This is a nice introduction to the city of Prague led by Tomas. We chose to do this tour late afternoon after we arrived. Our guide was fun and informative. He did not dive into historical detail which was fine with us as we had other tours planned for following days..

Excellent tour with Jarmila
We had an excellent experience with Jarmila as our guide. We were super late for our tour but she waited for us and spent extra time with us, even though she could have easily cut it short. Very knowledgeable of Prague and Czech history with many personal insights to make it more interesting. She was very funny and we were entertained the entire time. Went to the major sights but she also showed us some off the beaten path locations. We got some great recommendations for dining and shopping that we used on the remainder of our trip. Would recommend Jarmila to anyone wanting a terrific tour.

We got an immediate a excellent contact with this marvellous guide. Jarmila is an excellent guide and a very nice and interesting person who I really loved. She not only informed us about the city and its story but also about daily life and personal experience. We saw several of the main places and streets in the city. The best was of course that we made it just in time so see the performance of magical clock of the city hall. She also took care of my wife that was very tired this day since we left home at five o’clock in the morning. I can recommend this tour and especially Jarmila.

Very Good insider view of Prague
We decided to go our own route instead of the normal tourist ones. Learned quite a bit about old Prague. Gordon was quite ready for us with facts etc. Was well worth it, thank you!

Inexperienced guide
Sympathetic Pavel showed us the Charles Bridge, the venue of 1989 demonstrations, the old square etc.
A straightforward review, but the guide needs more training, especially in English, it is not good to put the full word “like” in every sentence (at least).
Not especially knowledgeable either.

I expected more
Booked tour for my French family to get to know Prague during their first visit. The guide is not local so little knowledge, little information about places of interest, pity. I expected more from this visit.

Great tour. We will do kick start tours in every city from now on.
Lokey was great. He allowed us to change up the tour last minute so we wouldn't double up on anything with our big group tour the following day.
He was knowledgeable, energetic, and thoughtful.

No experience
Can’t say, we didn’t get to go. We arrived to LHR this morning and shortly after leaving the passport e-gate I lost my passport. I contacted the provider to let them know that we couldn’t get there and to see if we could reschedule. Unfortunately the guide was not willing to help us out. Just added insult to injury. It was also my husband’s 65th birthday.

Great introduction to Prague
We had a great Kickstarter tour In Prague with Mesh. It was a
fantastic start to our few days there. I loved the way that these
tours are private so Mesh could adapt it to us. We learnt a lot about
the city, its architecture and its history including the Nazi and
communist periods. He gave us tips on what else to see; what to avoid/
be careful about; when would be the best time to go to visit some of
the popular sights to avoid the crowds, and pointed out the remaining
recommended sites not covered by this tour. He even gave some filming
tips to our wannabe youtube blogger teenage son. And the best way to
buy and eat a trdelnik. Thank you Mesh. Fully recommend and the food
tips proved excellent.
