I loved the Alchemy and mysteries of Prague castle tour with Anna. Even being a passionate for art and history myself, I lrarned so much during the tour and all in a friendly , funny and approachable way. Walking through the streets of Prague at night was an incredible experience, enhanced by the pleasure of listening to the remarkable stories about the Golem, Tycho Brache, Kepler, Edward Kelley and the kings Charles and Rudolph. Grateful also for the visit to the Strahov monastery and the Golden lane. For us as a family it was a great night!

our guide was awesome. I'm glad we went with the earlier time so we had him. He was hilarious. I couldn't believe how great his English was...I would have thought it was his first language with the minimal accent. Impressive. I'll say I had a preconceived notion about the underground tour....I assumed it would all be linked chambers. Instead it was an informational tour through the city and into three different chambers. It was very good tour and I'm glad we did it.

It was awesome, we were very lucky to have Jitka as our tour guide (I hope I’m writing her name correctly), we loved the legends and she shared interesting facts about Prague, and lots of recommendations on what to do, where to go and history about the city and the country! It was just awesome! Totally recommend it!

FANTASTIC TOUR! I feel bad because I forgot the name of my tour guide, but he was amazing! Very young, skinny, and tall man who gave us a very beautiful tour around Prague, tooks fantastic pictures and even brought some nice warm tea! Overall fantastic experience and I would do it again.

Maki was our guide, super enthusiastic, knew a lot to tell
