Great Castle to see in Prague - It was an interesting tour and the tour guide was very knowledgeable. The only disappointment was that we didn’t get a chance to see inside the cathedral because the tour didn’t finish until 4:30 PM and by the time we got up to the cathedral. They were closing and not selling any more tickets.

A Truly Memorable Castle Tour Experience! - The castle tour was an unforgettable experience—informative, well-paced, and filled with fascinating sites. I learned so much about the history and culture of Prague, and it was all thanks to our exceptional tour guide, Mel. Mel’s knowledge of Prague’s history is truly impressive. She brought each location to life with engaging stories and insightful commentary. Beyond her expertise, she was also incredibly accommodating, approachable, and fun, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. If you’re considering a castle tour in Prague, don’t hesitate—Mel’s tour is an absolute must!
