The boat trip was a nice relaxing trips between bridges, there’s waiters too take your order while you sit and relax having classical music playing. We enjoy the experience and the following day we booked another experience on a smaller boat which was a great trip same company.
Very smooth ride in the electric boat with plenty of seating on the top deck. Staff were friendly when taking orders for drinks but our order was totally forgotten and we only received it 5 minutes before we disembarked! Audio guide was through a speaker but we couldn’t hear it due to other passengers chatting. It was good to see a few of the large buildings from the water but again couldn’t hear what they were. The boat only goes up and down a section of the Vltava river due to the wier but it was a relaxing 50 minutes.
Very romantic experience late at night. The value for money is quite good with a 50 minute boat trip around the river, with an audio guide explaining what you’re looking at. Staff were friendly and helpful and our boat wasn’t too busy though I saw others on the water that was packed so if you want a more intimate experience go later at night (we went at 9.40PM). Only downside is that the bench seats were REALLY uncomfortable but not unbearable.
Totally unnecessary! The boat travels back and forth between some of the bridges. Not worth the money at all!
Great way to see Prague via the river. Informative and very relaxing Recommended
Really nice experience especially when the sun goes down. The staff were all kind and helpful. One of the cleanest tourist boats I have ever been on. Would definitely recommend it when in Prague
2 hours of cruises to discover Prague in a way other than on foot, nice, very beautiful boat, pleasant staff, you can eat and drink there. It would be even better if they offered audio guides. We did not regret it with a beautiful sun.
Merci pour votre agréable retour. Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié la croisière, le bateau et notre personnel, et nous prenons bonne note de votre suggestion concernant les audioguides.
It was nice newer boat. Staff very nice and friendly and prompted table drink orders. Very short cruise. The boat can only go so far up and down the river in a very short distance due water locks. It was nice. You are the river for about 45 minutes. Total 50 minutes
I never got to do it when I was in Prague for the first time, so I'm really happy I've finally seen Prague from a boat perspective. I couldn't hear the audio, which is a bit sad, but still, the experience was fun and relaxing. Thanks!
Thank you for your kind feedback. We are glad you enjoyed the relaxing boat perspective of Prague, and we are sorry that the audio was difficult to hear during the cruise.
Took the 50 minute tour. A very modern electric boat with floor to ceiling viewing windows for great views of Prague. There was also an upper viewing deck too. A table service for drinks was also available during the short trip. Commentary in several languages was provided with an interactive map available via QR code to add more info if you wanted it.
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We are glad you enjoyed the modern electric boat, the views of Prague, and the commentary during the cruise.
