I did a day tour with this operator and then this one right after. David and Jachym were great hosts! We learned so much about the drinking history of Prague, as well as modern and historic Czech beer culture. We tried a few traditional beers as well as some delicious bar food. I have a much greater appreciation for Prague and Czech beer after this, and I highly recommend this tour. Oh, and thanks for the special gift!

Marcella was a friendly and excellent tour guide with detailed historical explanations of the Prague royal family and other key points that stood out at each building interior. Tour pace was perfect and did not feel rushed - would highly recommend for first-timers to Prague Castle!

This is a must if you are visiting Prague. Great fun, great food and who doesn’t love unlimited drinks! 10/10 and they were so accommodating as there were 6 of us who booked as 3 separate couples and they managed to get us all sat together. Incredible night!

Very good tour and lots to see around the palace, cathedral and surrounds. Our guide Dana was extremely knowledgeable in her history and very accommodating. A great few hours.

Fun activity,got 2 drinks,well worth the money. No rush just chilled,went back the next day,definitely recommend.
