Excellent guide! The guide was very knowledgable about the castle and Prague. Would recommend her to others
Hate to give this Review but we had very bad experience with this tour . The Guide was very unprofessional .He give us any time to see any thing he was just keep walking and 3 to 5 hr tour time he finished it in 35-40 minutes and left us with one institution to visit our own . I complained to Viator they were not helpful.
