Creative - The tour provides great insight into not only the night watchman’s job and his position in society but also into life during that period. The tour was well researched. Our guide put a lot of energy into the presentation and made a real effort to engage with his guests.

The Nightwatch Man Tour in Prague was an unforgettable experience! - The Nightwatch Man Tour in Prague was an unforgettable experience! Our guide, dressed as a 14th/15th-century Nightwatch Man, brought history to life with his engaging storytelling and vibrant character. As we strolled through the lantern-lit streets, we learned about daily life, including the surprising amount of beer consumed—often more than water! We also explored significant events like the Hussite movement and Jan Hus's role, all while hearing about Mozart’s debut of "The Marriage of Figaro" in Prague. The tour lasted 90 minutes, but we were so engrossed that we lost track of time and didn't want it to end! With interactive moments and captivating anecdotes, this tour is a must for anyone wanting to delve into Prague’s fascinating history. Highly recommended!

February 2025 - Thank you David Merten for a fun but very informative tour. There's a lot of history in the streets and a lot of information to take in, and even though there were only 2 of us, his enthusiasm and knowledge made a very interesting tour. A very good storyteller and full of humour even on a very very cold evening - a must do tour.

Engaging tour for all ages - This was a fantastic tour from start to finish. We were a family of three with a 12 year daughter who was fed up with tours. She quickly changed her mind as David our guide kept her involved and brought the history of Prague to life. David our guide was so knowledgeable and and a eloquent story teller. I 100% recommend this tour.
