Prague City Tour Reviews

1. Prague In One Day Private Tour

If you’ve only got one day to experience the enchanting city of Prague, this private, 7-hour tour offers the perfect balance of iconic landmarks and local secrets. Unlike standard group tours, this personalized excursion takes you much deeper than the surface understanding most alternatives offer.

If that sounds like what you’re looking for, check out the Prague In One Day Private Tour, with the flexibility and intimacy that instantly sets it apart from the rest. Start things off with a convenient hotel pickup in the morning, eliminating the hassle of having to book separate transportation or finding a meetup point.

As it is completely private, it’s literally just your guide, you, and whomever else you’re traveling with. Your transportation is a car, which just feels more comfortable as you don’t have to deal with bumpy buses packed full of people.

The itinerary is personalized according to you and your party’s specific interests, so no two itineraries are going to be identical. For example, if you’re looking more for a tour that focuses on architecture, you’ll perhaps see the Astronomical Clock and the Old Town Square, the Charles Bridge, the Strahov Monastery, and Prague Castle.

Maybe you’re a history buff who wants to explore Prague’s different eras – you’ll see the Jewish Quarter, the Powder Gate, the city center, etcetera.

If you’re unsure, you can always ask for your guide’s recommendations, as they have practically an endless supply of them – no matter what you’re interested in. They’ll regale you with all kinds of fascinating historical accounts and anecdotes, keeping your attention right from the very beginning.

2. Grand City Tour on Scooter in Prague

I absolutely love Prague, and while there’s something to be said about the connection you feel with a city when traveling by foot, it’s not always conducive to efficient sightseeing.

Combining something like the increased speed of an electric scooter with the open-air, portable benefits is really the best of both worlds and allows you to see much more and in added comfort than you would by walking. If you’re short on time or have a packed schedule, travel the cobblestone streets in style with the Grand City Tour on Scooter in Prague.

This 2-hour experience is easy to fit into a busy itinerary and that’s only facilitated further by the fact that they have plenty of different start times available throughout the morning and afternoon.

Start off by meeting with your guide and get fitted for the right scooter and helmet, going through a safety briefing and riding lesson to ensure everyone feels confident before setting out. The eco-friendly, fat-tire electric scooter is easy to ride, a load of fun, and perfect for tackling the city’s diverse terrain (it can get quite hilly!).

With little to no effort, you’ll find yourself gliding through Prague, taking in the opulence of Prague Castle, the history and visual enchantment of Charles Bridge, and the historic Old Town Square, without breaking a sweat.

The large tires make it stable and smooth over the cobblestones, where traditional bikes or walking can be a challenge, and the seat means that you don’t even have to stand up while sightseeing!

We got to see famed sites like the Charles Bridge, the Old Town Hall with the Astronomical Clock, and Prague Castle, but also got to check out plenty of places off the typical tourist path.

I really enjoyed relaxing a bit in Petrin, seeing the neo-renaissance glory of Rudolfinum, and a bit of the famous art at the Franz Kafka Museum. If you really want to see a ton of places (and get photos taken by your guide!), this is definitely one of the best choices for you!

3. Best of Prague Walking Tour and Cruise with Authentic Czech Lunch

If you’re looking to uncover the hidden gems and iconic landmarks of Prague all in one go, this next tour is one of the most comprehensive. The 6-hour Best of Prague Walking Tour and Cruise with Authentic Czech Lunch is a thoughtfully curated experience with a personal touch.

This isn’t one of those cookie-cutter tours that just ticks off the list of landmarks – it’s about experiencing Prague like a local. The tour starts out at 10:00 am by the Charles Bridge, and I appreciated that it wasn’t too early and was able to grab a coffee and pastry and sleep in a little beforehand.

We started off by walking along the bridge towards the Lesser Town crossing the river, learning about the history of the bridge and the different sculptures that line it. We then boarded the tram (ticket included) up to the famous Prague Castle, where we went on an educational walking tour through the grounds and learned all about its varied history.

After our interesting time at the castle, we crossed the river again to the old town Stare Mesto, where we got to learn about the history behind the Jewish Quarter, see the synagogues, and a bit of its quirky artsiness.

With all that venturing around, we appreciated sitting down at a cozy pub for a delicious Pilsner and typical Czech lunch, which was hearty and a great way to try something new. After fueling up, we took a (very welcome) walk back to the river, which was nice for walking off all that tasty food.

We arrived at the Charles Bridge Museum, where we had complimentary entry and took us through the history of the gorgeous structure and how it links the Old Town with the Lesser Town.

As an architecture nerd, I absolutely loved this little museum filled with exhibits that feature original artefacts, miniature models, replicas, and many more interesting details. Overall, this is the perfect way to learn about Prague’s history in just one day!

4. Best of Prague Private Walking Tour (Left and Right Riverbank)

Perhaps the previous tour sounded intriguing to you but you’re looking for something a bit shorter to accomodate your busy schedule.

The Best of Prague Private Walking Tour (Left and Right Riverbank) is a great alternative, acquainting participants with the newer and older parts of the city with an expert guide to lead the way. Combining some of the most iconic landmarks with some lesser-known gems, it’s a great way to learn more about the “real” Prague in a fun environment.

This 4-hour tour comes with a convenient hotel pickup, so you don’t have to deal with wandering around trying to find a meetup point. There are multiple start times available, making it that much easier to fit into your busy itinerary.

While you can certainly see the more famous sites on your own, you’ll save so much time with a guide who knows the city like the back of their hand. I should also mention that this is a completely private tour, you have the freedom of customizing this tour according to your specific interests.

That means that you won’t have to worry about spending too much nor too little time at sites – it’s completely up to you! Of course, if it’s your first time in Prague, I recommend seeing the main sites like the Charles Bridge and Prague Castle, as well as some of the Old Town and Lesser Town at the very least.

With a wealth of knowledge, your guide will likely be able to answer any question you throw at them, whether it’s historical or a question about what life is like for a local there. Aside from the main attractions, we ventured into the lesser-known areas of the city, which were equally as interesting, so definitely trust your guide!

5. Amazing !!! Electric Trike Tour of Prague, Live Guide Included

Next up, is quite possibly the most versatile Prague tour in terms of length and mode of transportation. The Electric Trike Tour of Prague, Live Guide Included experience is exhilirating and unique, and quite possibly also one of the most comfortable ways to sightsee.

You know when your feet hurt but you still feel like there’s so much to see? This tour solves all that from the seat of a sleek, 3-wheeled trike. There are a ton of different start times for this tour, with the tours itself ranging from 30 minutes to 3 hours, depending on options booked and what you want to see.

This is a private tour, so you’re the one calling the shots and can offer insight into the kind of things you’d like to see. Start off by meeting your guide for a safety briefing while you get fitted for your helmet and undergo training to ensure you’re comfortable with operating the trike.

I had a blast riding around on these trikes, and I feel like they’re such a better option for so many people who aren’t that confident riding a bike or have some sort of physical hindrance that could make it difficult. If you’d like a little intro to the city and/or want to get a lay of the land, I can’t think of a better option than this one!

It takes you through all of the major sites, including the Charles Bridge, Rudolfinum, Prague Castle, and St. Nicholas Church, but we also got to see plenty of “off the beaten path” gems that you may not otherwise encounter.

Along the way, your guide is there to share all kinds of fascinating historical accounts, cultural information, and anecdotes of each of the different landmarks you pass.

Prague is a city with a ton of history behind it, and this guide shares information in a way that not only holds your attention, but lays things out in a way that are easy to comprehend. If you’re on a budget, please put this one at the top of your list!

6. Prague 3-hour Afternoon Walking Tour including Prague Castle

If you’re on the hunt for the quintessential Prague experience, look no further than the 3-Hour Afternoon Walking Tour including Prague Castle! This meticulously curated experience balances history, culture, and incomparable city vistas in just a few hours.

With an entertaining, knowledgeable guide to lead you, it almost feels like thousands of years of history are unfolding right before your eyes.

Just like with most others, there are multiple start times to choose from, which makes it easier to fit into a busy schedule. Unfortunately, it doesn’t come with a complimentary hotel pickup but the meeting place inside the Old Town Square in front of the Town Hall is super easy to get to.

Your tour starts here, so after meeting your guide you’ll go straight into your guided tour by hopping on a tram that takes you up to the looming Prague Castle.

Overlooking the river and entire city, it’s quite imposing, and I was happy that we got to see not only the grounds, but got to go inside. You’ll check out the St. Vitus Cathedral, Old Royal Palace, St. George’s Basilica, and Golden Lane – pretty much all the most notable structures within the castle walls.

Then, take a brief stroll over to the incredible baroque church of St. Nicolas, which is a must-see if you appreciate architecture at all. One stop we made that many tours don’t do, is at Kampa Island, where we got to see their love-locked bridge along with the famous John Lennon Wall, which I’d seen already but still was quite special.

After this, you head over the the majestic Charles Bridge, which is quite possibly the most beautiful, impressive bridge that I’ve had the pleasure of crossing! Hear all about its history and how it used to be the only way to cross the river during medieval times!

7. Discover Prague Private Tour – 3 hours

=

Last but certainly not least is the 3-hour Discover Prague Private Tour, which packs in quite a bit of sightseeing in a relatively short amount of time. As the name states, it’s completely private so you won’t be going with a huge crowd of people – it’s more intimate and completely personalized to your liking.

You even get to choose your mode of transportation: take a walking tour or travel by private car. While it is a shorter tour, I was impressed by the fact that they included a hotel pickup and drop-off in the ticket pricing, which saved us some time and hassle.

Our guide was super friendly and clearly extremely knowledgeable about their city’s way of life – both past and present. That kind of passion is contagious and really got us excited to see the city’s main attractions along with some more “local” haunts.

This was fun because there were a ton of places that I ended up revisiting later in my trip because I liked them so much during my brief experience.

My guide also gave me plenty of recommendations of things to do after we finished the tour, and he quickly ended up feeling like a longtime friend. If you want a warm welcome to Prague, you can’t get better than this.
