Beautiful city, unpleasant people, unsociable and unfriendly. Beware of card payments with unexpected increases beyond the unsolicited tip

If anything was unclear, please contact us. We always strive to offer a transparent and pleasant experience.
This was a great tour and really good value for money. It was very informative and it takes you to parts of the city that you may not otherwise have gone to. Our tour guide Phil was brilliant, very knowledgable and able to answer any questions we had. Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone with an interest in the subject
Super interesting tour and worthwhile for anyone who wants to understand more about more recent history. Did the tour on Remembrance Sunday which felt even more poignant.
Tour was cancelled 25 mins before beginning by phone, due to the guide being taken ill . I hope he or she is ok after such a sudden illness.
I attended the WWII and Communism Tour. I appreciated very much the explanation by the local guide, Adam. His broad knowledge allowed him to explain very complex concepts in a few simple words. Moreover, his eloquence was so powerful to convey the drama and the emotions of those times. It has been for sure a full immersion in the tumultuous past of this great city. Thanks, Adam and thanks to Discover Prague for such an awesome tour! Last remark, a bit disappointed regarding the beer tour because you need at least two persons to be able to book it.
Thanks for taking the time to leave us a great review! We are happy to hear that you had a great time on your tour with Adam, he is very knowledgeable and as a company, we pride ourselves on making sure that everything runs smoothly and people have a good time. We wish you all the best! Kind regards, Discover Prague Tours
Our Tour Guide, Zach, was truly awesome on this World War II & Communism Tour. He shared his immense and profound knowledge of historical events in a way that not only informed us about many facts but also related them to us in a manner that permitted us to intuitively understand them. I left not only knowing what had happened but also why, who had done it for what reason and what people thought about it. In particular, I have to say that as a German I find that his explanation of how the Nazi Party rose to power in Germany was much more sensical and comprehensible than any that I've ever heard in my school. I absolutely loved Prague even before I participated at this tour, but afterwards I felt like I had barely begun to scratch the surface of this wonderful city's very soul and that it permitted me to not only love but admire it. Booking this tour as an extracurricular activity together with a classmate was my absolutely best decision on the entire school trip. It has played an important role in my decision to, one day, definitely come back to this city. I am definitely recommending this tour and our genius Tour Guide to anyone and everyone!
Thanks for a great review! We are happy to hear that you had a great time with Zac, he has lived in Prague for a long time and loves to share the knowledge he acquired with people on his tours. We wish you all the best and hope to see you in the future! Kind regards, Discover Prague Tours
We thoroughly enjoyed our WW2 and Communism tour of Prague. Our guide Tony was excellent ... so informative and everything told in such an engaging, interesting manner. He was able to answer all our questions and added in information on Prague today. A top rate experience which I can highly recommend.
Thank you for your review! We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your tour with Tony. He knows this tour very well and people really love to take it with him. Thanks again and hope to see you again in the future! Kind Regards, Discover Prague Tours
We booked this tour due to a mutual interest in the Second World War...There was quite a bit about Prague and it’s connection to the war and its resistance that I was unaware of and also about the history of Communism in what is now the Czech Republic. Adam was our guide for the tour and is easily one of the finest guides I have ever had the pleasure of spending time with. Adam was informative, Knowledgeable and humorous when the moments on the tour would allow for it. I found him extremely pleasant and would thoroughly recommend him and the tour to anyone!!!
Thank you for your feedback! Prague is rich in the history of those times and many people are unaware of the events that happened here. Adam does a fantastic job of delivering this information to all our guests and people love how he delivers the tour. Thanks again and hope to see you again soon! Kind Regards, Discover Prague Tours
I thought this tour was excellent and incredibly interesting. The tour guide, Adam had a good balance of solemnity and humour: 2 and a half hours went by extremely quickly. The church where the assassins hid was incredibly moving. Here we moved around the museum independently, as requested at the door. I can only imagine that the review complaining that the tour guide left them didn't understand this. Well worth going on.
Thanks for taking the time to leave us a great review! We are happy to hear that you had a great time on your tour with Adam, he is very knowledgeable and as a company, we pride ourselves on making sure that everything runs smoothly and people have a good time. We wish you all the best! Kind regards, Discover Prague Tours
Adam was a knowledgable and amiable guide, open to any questions and who really connected us with the city through his own and family's experience. I recommend the tour for people already seriously interested in the era. Thanks Adam!
