This tour gives you the opportunity to see many lesser known parts of this neighbourhood in Prague. I enjoyed particularly the view over the river and the city, the mansion district full of lovely cafés and at the end the park with its lake. Walking directions are also easy to understand.
2. The Bone Church of Kutna Hora: The Real and Imagined Audio Tour by VoiceMap
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 1 reviews
If you love the spiritual, the macabre, a place where stories are made, then you must visit The Ossuary at Sedlec, or The Bone Church of Kutna Hora. It’s one of those rare places that transcends expectations and leaves most visitors dumbstruck in the most glorious, soul-quenching way. It sits about an hour outside of Prague, and the only feature that advertises that there’s more than meets the eye to The Bone Church is the skull and crossbones spiked at the top of its spire. This tour guides you around the The Bone Church, and past another UNESCO World Heritage site, the Gothic cathedral of The Church of the Assumption of Our Lady and St. John the Baptist. I'll illuminate you on the region's past, it's more recent history under the Soviet Union, and it's transformation into a parliamentary democracy. The tour is ready whenever you are and the audio plays automatically at exactly the right time and place using your smartphone's GPS and the VoiceMap mobile app, which also works offline.

This tour would be great at night - going with friends listening (sharing earphones?). As I was alone and it is January (very chilly) - I wasn't going to wonder around listening to scary stories in the cold & dark. I didn't plan early enough to get a spot on a walking evening tour with good ratings - and the others sounds only so-so. In my last few hours in Prague I tried this out in the morning - and truly wish I'd done it when I first arrived. First, the narrator has a great voice for scary tales. Starting early morning (8:00 AM) it was still quiet enough to have a good eerie vibe in January. I have a gift for getting lost - but the layout of this tour is outstandingly easy to follow. You get to the starting place - and then the directions are amazing. The GPS interaction with the map layout worked perfectly... and the verbal direction made it so I only had to check my phone at all 2-3 times to make sure I was following the right path. I did have my phone out a lot taking photos - as the places it guided were extremely scenic. It was an amazing away to flawlessly navigate through awesome nooks, hidden squares, arches, and back pathways right in the center of it all. Would a great in person tour be better - probably. But for flexibility, path, quality, and cost - i'm giving this 5 stars.

Absolutely amazing. I couldn't recommend this tour enough. Our guide was a brilliant storyteller. Over a magical, mysterious tour of two and a half hours, gave absolutely everything for a performance of the highest standards. (I might say as a native English speaker myself and a person with acting experience, the guide's English is absolutely perfect and her acting skills legendary). The well-told stories really were special, and I particularly liked the use of really well-chosen words to tell the stories, as this added to the imaginative experience. This was an excellent way to experience the heart of Prague, at night, and from different perspectives, which are a great alternative or addition to other cultural experiences in the capital. I would also commend the tour for observing social distancing in challenging times, and for the quality of sound. Not everyone can hear very well, nor speak English so well so it's important that the stories are clear and intelligible as well as well-acted and they were. The stories were fascinating, chilling and sometimes quite unnerving. It gave a window into the social customs and mores of the past, as well as providing the ghostly aspect. Through this, you could appreciate some of the social strictures and customs which today, thankfully! are no longer with us! The guide had a lot of grace, poise and delivered the stories in a suitably atmospheric and supernatural way! Prague is well-renowned for its ghosts, gothic buildings, dark, mysterious byways, and spots, and this tour brought the spirits of the past to life.

I loved this walk, it is in the most adored area in the city and at night it is the perfect time to see it empty and also discover the beauty of Prague at night. Our guide was Casey and he turned out to be a fantastic story teller, who was able to add the mystery in each stop we had during this walk. I would recommend it, if you have the time and are fascinated by the alternative.

The day trip was very well organised and well spaced with ample time to explore this beautiful town and its major attractions. But if you wished to explore it in details, then it well be better to stay overnight instead.

We had an absolutely incredible time. The show was amazing, the food was absolutely delicious (and A LOT of food!). The staff were all friendly and we were continuously brought new drinks before ours were even finished. I highly recommend this feast for anyone who enjoys medieval entertainment. We'll definitely go again when we visit Prague again.
