Very knowledgeable and the right length of time. Our guide was great and kept us on time. Recommend it.
The tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly. The group was pretty small, so we had plenty of opportunities to ask questions. The guide knew a good deal of Prague history.
We booked Ivitsa because he doesn't do large groups (<10). This way you can interact with the guide and you can actually hear/understand him/her. Ivitsa is a nice approachable guy who knows a lot about Prague. He tells the story in a captivating way and shows you interesting places you would otherwise not go to. We booked the tour of 2 hours. It was very interesting. We highly recommend Ivitsa.
