We stupidly did the tour in the third from last day of leaving Prague, when we go back this year it is the thing on our agenda! He showed us the north of Prague so we could see the real culture of Prague away from the over priced bars and restaurants, it was the best tour we have ever down. We are an adventurous couple that like trying the different more open minded tour and this was ace, ending in a night at the steampunk style nightclub

It was definitely an experience. We did it with my parents and my 8 year old sister. She got tired of paddling pretty soon. Wouldn't take small children and expect them to paddle the whole way. There were some nice places to stop for beer and refreshments. The weirs were frightening. On the first one, my dad and I capsized and I didn't have the guts to go down the second one. Everybody really enjoyed it and slept well after the journey.

I really recommend Michal to you! I called on him to discover the beautiful city of Prague and learn more about its history, culture, architecture ... I am very satisfied, Michal is very sympathetic, open-minded and cultivated, he was able to answer all my questions. We chose to have this tour in English and he speaks very well! He is extraordinary... No regrets! Thank you Michal :)

If you’re looking for a tour guide that is interesting, engaging and is a knowledgeable local, these guys are without doubt a great find in Prague. We did the History Walking Tour approx 3.0hrs that includes a tram to the top of Prague 1 above the castle, then a downhill walk all the way back. The tour covers each of the main historic sites, as well as a few tucked away local gems. We were all pleased with a beer stop early in the tour and a quick bite and beer at the end of the tour. The tour is an easy walk but wear comfortable shoes as there is lots of cobbled streets. Tours are limited to 10 people which is perfect. We had Ondra (Andrew) who looked after us brilliantly. He was kind and very knowledgeable. He offered us local information and his own recommendations on restaurants and sites at the end of the tour. A great way to get your bearings as a first timer to Prague. We would highly recommend them.

We had the pleasure of doing a tour with Jakub and Martin in conjunction with a brewing workshop we were running in Prague. They could not have been easier to work with. Both are enthusiastic, well-spoken and multilingual – we tested their skills in English, French, Czech and a bit of German! While generously sharing their passion for craft beer and Czech beer culture, they skilfully educated us all the while making sure that everyone has a good time. We attended 3 very different craft beer pubs ranging from a stylish rooftop (Tank-er), a classic retro hole-in-the-wall (Hotomice) to a large modern brew pub taproom (Dva Kohouti). You won’t be disappointed.

We enjoyed another great tour with Laus through the center of Prague. His knowledge of the city is almost without end but he brings it in an entertaining, light way, while showing all of the sites you need to see. In about 4 hours we got a great introduction of the city and it's history, giving us plenty to go back to and explore by ourselves later. Laus is the guy to go to for private tours in Prague. Also, if you want to know anything about beer: Laus has it all. Strongly recommended.

Seven hours may seem a long time - but of course we will have breaks at cafés, food stalls or in a park, when it comes to more detailed explanations. We also stop whenever you'd like to take a photo. You will get a very profound insight on 1000 years of history - from the very inception of this city till today. This city and this country have left their heavy imprint on Europe's history. I don't do groups - just you and me, max. 6 people in case of a family or friends travelling together. I'd like to have a permanent dialogue with you. You can change the itinerary any time - there's so much to see here. So far, all my guests have been delighted about my walks.

Inclusions: Bottled water

Exclusions: Dinner

This all day walking tour with Gunther was amazing and was definitely the highlight of our trip to Europe. Prague is a bustling and our tour allowed us to see an off the beaten path side of the city. The tour starts by taking the tram to a wonderful spot to get a panoramic view of this marvelous city. Gunthers personal historical walking tour allows us to see Prague away from the crowds. We got the opportunity to see churches, historical buildings and cafes that we would never have discovered on our own. The tour also included the must see spots like Charles Bridge. Gunther is an excellent, knowledgeable historian and we learned so much, we still talk about this trip. I highly recommend staying at the guesthouse and taking the tour of this gorgeous city.

We decided to use the services provided by Discover Prague Tours Agency in order to visit Kutna Hora and Sedlec Ossuary. For sure was one of our best decision during our trip to Prague. Our guide was Dave, Colorado – Dave he stressed … there is another guide named Dave in the same agency. Dave proved to be an excellent guide who knew how to keep awake the interest of a group with very different people and from almost everywhere to the places seen. He organized very well the train transportation to Kutna Hora and back to Prague, the tour itself in Kutna Hora and Sedlec, and our lunch at a very nice restaurant. Dave gave us very interesting information about the events of the past that marked the places visited as well as about the lives and concerns of the people back then. If our trip to Kutna Hora and Sedlec Ossuary was a successful one, that's what we owe to our guide and the professional way he did his job.

I'm very happy with the tour! despite of the covid situation and that I was the only one on the tour they made a great effort to make it happen, they could have cancelled but they didn't. I had an amazing time with my guide Sofia, she has very good english skills and LOT of knowledge about the city. Although we were not able to take the cruise because of covid I'm very happy with the tour, I had a great time and learned a lot about the city. 100% recommended.
