Prague Castle! St. Vitus Cathedral! Charles Bridge! The question is not if you see these sights. The question is if you see them and understand their purpose and past. Hear the stories these old walls can tell. Let us, therefore, tell you the story of the hearth of Europe on a relaxed walking tour.

First the good: we saw a lot of sights that should be seen if visiting Prague especially the first time. Great way to see a lot quickly. Our guide Michael was very knowledgeable as well.
The not so good and I hope the tour company is listening. We met just beside the astronomical clock. We immediately left the area to catch a train and tram to our first stop. Not one word was said about the square or the clock so why did we meet here??? The train/tram tickets aren’t included which takes time for all to figure out how to get tickets. Now we are 20 plus minutes into the tour without a single bit of information. So why did we meet in the square??? While the group was around 26 people we did have headphones but our guide Michael was quick to always have his mic off while walking yet answering questions from our group that more people would have appreciated hearing I’m sure. Him answering questions and telling history to just a few people continued the entire time which was annoying and unfortunate. My group felt like we missed quite a bit of information about the city and its history.
So to the company:
1. Move the meeting spot or talk about the square.
2. Don’t make people buy train tickets.
3. Don’t turn the mics off when asked general questions. Instead repeat the question for the group and share the answer.
Overall I’d recommend the tour but this has been one of my least favorite due to the guide of all the tours I’ve done throughout Europe. However, Prague is lovely.

Michal is a very professional guide. His insights take you beyond the history books and show the connections and personalities of those who made that history.

The tour provided an opportunity to visit the Palace complex and grounds. Since we met at the Old Town Square,I was expecting at least a little commentary about that -- but got none. I did not find the guide particularly well-spoken.

A comprehensive walking tour.
Michal our guide was excellent. Full of historical facts and made the tour really, really interesting.
I'd recommend this tour to anyone interested in history.
If anything, the tour is possibly too ambitious in trying to cover so much within the 3 hrs. Maybe there are two tours in it.

If you only have a weekend, or even a day, in Prague, this tour is fantastic! We saw the most important sites, including Prague Castle. I highly recommend this tour, especially with tour director Johann (sp?).
