Prague Old Town and Jewish Quarter Walking Tour

Great

The guided ghost tour was a unique and neat experience it was very informative. Our guided Luka was knowledgeable and great at story telling. Overall it was a fabulous experience.

The ghost tour: a never forgettable experience

The experience was unrealistic I felt I was living in that particular time n was a part of all those tragic stories. It was fun to listen to all thanx to our tour guide “luka” he was a fabulous tour guide explained each n every bit with absolute depth n made every moment as real as possible. The 1.5 hour long walk dint seem as tough as it sounded since every body was so engrossed in the stories n were thoroughly enjoying it. I would highly recommend u all to take this tour if u visit prague n especially by LUKA

Brief Intro to Prague

This was a very good tour. It was quick and just scratched the surface of all that Prague has to offer. Excellent first day activity to get a feel for the layout of the old town. I wish we had more time to spend with Radek, he was great and we learned a lot.

Alchemy tour

Pablo is a very knowledgeable and pleasant guide, and was constantly feeding us with exciting information. The Alchemy tour besides providing historical facts also is a great intro to the city nowadays.

Educational and Entertaining

Luca was great, his own stories linked in with the legends and ghost stories he shared. I liked his friendly and relaxed style.

Excellent Introductory tour to Prague

This was a great way to spend our first morning in Prague - we were the only two people doing the English Tour so it was like a private tour. Our guide, Votja, was a charming person and extremely informative and knowledgeable. He gave us a brief historical background to the country and the city before we started and could answer our many questions during the tour. The first half of the tour was in the old Town and the second half in the Jewish Quarter. It gave us an excellent overview and we will go back to explore some areas in more detail. We highly recommend this tour. The last stop was the statue of Kafka. We then stumbled across a local bakery/cafe - Nostress Bakery - and had lunch there. Absolutely delicious. It may be a trifle expensive but the patisserie is divine. And I am a long time eater of such delights. Stop there for a try!

Thank you, Pasquale!

Really enjoyed the 2 hr tour. Easy going, nice background info, friendly & helpful tour guide. Liking Prague more and more...Was a lot of fun, thank you!

Engaging tour of Prague Old Town and Jewish quarter

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour through Prague Old Town and Jewish quarter with Vojta. Vojta is engaging, knowledgeable and open to questions. We highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to learn a bit about Prague history.

Prague Center & Jewish quarter - amazing with Allen !

Allen was a fantastic guide, having an in depth knowledge of the history and architecture of the area made for an enjoyable tour. A native English speaker ex-pat - made for no loss in translation and personable conversation. Great walk around Jewish quarter and history of astronomical clock. Well done ! Highly recommend.

Interesting tour and best tour guide, Allen

The tour was really nice and interesting as many information was provided by our tour guide, Allen. He even provides extra information for us to learn and know more. we enjoyed a lot and Allen is a very good tour guide!

Malaysian in Prague with Allen

Allen was our tour guide. The tour was on time, Allen was being informative and made the trip even more interesting!!!!!

One of the best walking tours I've ever done

One of the best walking tours I've ever done, our guide Allen was incredibly knowledge, friendly, funny, and you felt like he was really going thr extra mile. Thanks so much again Allen!

Amazing

Very good and interesting tour with a friendly and eloquent guide. Amazing views and highly informative stories about the ancient history of prague and its alchemists. Recommendable!!

Very insightful and good money spent

Very interesting and full of history. Our guide Radek was very knowledgeable and had a lovely attitude. I would recommend if you are looking to delve into Prague's history without breaking the bank!

Outstanding experience

We have just enjoyed a day with Martin as our guide,taking us through tge history of Prague and Czech nation. It was incredibly informative, enjoyable and well organised. Martin could not have helped us more. He was superb. He spoke fluent English. His warm hearted nature and attention to detail made today an unforgettable experience. Thank you to Martin and the team. Highly recommended.

Fantastic

Vojta was our guide on the walking tour this morning and he was fantastic! He provided tons of information about pragues history and key insights into why things in the city are the way that they are. It was really great information

Excellent tour and guide

Radek was an excellent guide very knowledgeable and engaging small group so easy to ask questions etc

Superb guide, great tour, highly recommend (Significantly better than other tours we tested)

My husband and I were pleasantly surprised with the high quality of this tour compared to the other tours that we had a chance to test in Prague during our trip this year. Our guide was already waiting for us when we arrived, and was very welcoming, knowledgeable and well prepared. He was engaged in the conversation for the entire time of this long and comprehensive tour covering dozens of sights across the Old Town and the Jewish quarter. The guide’s name was Martin, and he was a Prague native. From the way the guide Martin talked about the sights, it was very clear that he has a deep interest and knowledge of history. He was very professional and had a genuine interest in sharing his knowledge. Martin’s English was excellent. While my husband is a foreigner, I grew up in Prague and I am very familiar with my city and its history. Despite this, we both have appreciated hearing our guide’s narrative, and it was great to remind myself of forgotten facts and hearing new things. My husband was also very happy with the experience, and we both thought that the tour was very well designed. Our guide did not skip things, and did not rush through, even though the tour covered an extensive itinerary. He was able to cover multiple historical buildings including both the famous as well as less known sites. We highly recommend this tour.

Ghosts are not real (according to our guide)

We were excited to go on this tour as the young man presenting the opening was very engaging. We unfortunately were split into two groups and the young man we toured with was not excited about the tour and at time seemed to be embarrassed to be talking about possible ghosts.

Martin was a great guide...

Martin was a great guide with great command of English language. He filled the tour with legends and humor. Being a local, he was kind enough to give us insider tips on where to eat and what cafes to try. Take the tour the first day to get the feel for the old town.

Great family walk and experience

Great tour guide - David. Really involved the family. Super stories making the rest of the trip fun.

Great tour guide!

Allen was such an amazing tour guide! I got to feel the city and it’s history! We all enjoyed it as a family. He creates quick and informative stories to help you understand history and keeps the group moving, never bored!

Wonderful tour

There are so many details about the Old Town and Jewish Quarter that are easy to miss if you walk around just to admire the scenery - having a guide with us turned the experience into something quite magical. Our guide Allen was extremely knowledgeable in the subject matter, but also delivered the information succinctly and sprinkled fun facts. He came prepared with historical maps and photographs which made the things he told us feel even more real. Overall, a great experience and recommended to anyone who is even remotely interested in the culture and history of Prague.

Good for the right amount of walking time.

Radek was a very good guide! The tour was informative and a good length of time for me (1and a half hours-2 hours). We had already seen the Charles Bridge so this tour covered what we wanted to see. I would recommend this tour.

Great tour with Allen!

I have travelled all over the world and been on many tours but this was one of the best. Our guide, Allen, not only had deep knowledge of the city history but was also able to express this knowledge in an entertaining story-like way. I would highly recommend you choose this tour and ask for Allen to be your guide.

informative, entertaining and pleasant to be around

Tour guide Allen were really great! He is informative, entertaining and pleasant to be around. It was really worth the money spent and the time consumed of our lovely stay in Prague.

The best ghost tour in prague

Daniel was amazing, first off. Went with my school, he was so fun and informative!! An amazing time!

Allen rocks!

Allen was unreal! He is so knowledgeable, makes every topic so fun to learn about and he’s just an overall great guy. We had some other guides around Prague and Allen was head and shoulders above the rest. Our whole group loved him!

Excellent Tours

Thoroughly enjoyed taking the old quarter and Jewish history tour in Prague with Allen. He is a passionate and expert storyteller who brought a lot of understanding to this fascinating part of the city with lots of historical and enjoyable detail. I recommend him highly

Highly recommended, worth the time and expense

Allen provided a great tour. His depth of knowledge is incredible and he provided a great balance of depth and brevity for our mixed group of family. Prague is an amazing city, and touring with Allen was invaluable.

Allen is the BEST!

Allen was deeply knowledgeable about the city and a wonderful storyteller. Highly Recommend taking any tour he leads. One logistic item to note: the tour ended almost an hour later than the 5:00 end indicated online.

Great tour; well worth it.

A great tour with Peter. He gave us a lot of historical context, was very well informed, and was very entertaining as well.

Great walking tour

Excellent walking tour. Allen our guide was very knowledgeable & we enjoyed learning about Prague. Took fantastic photos & had a great time. A lot of walking involved so you need comfortable shoes!

Excellent guide. Expert in all things Prague: history, sites, theology, science, architecture and way more

Allen was a superb guide. Gave great explanations and took us to all the sites and made sure we got an overall understanding of what we were looking at. He is really smart and has a major, deep and serious understanding of the development of the city of Prague, it’s urbanism, development, history, architecture and religion. First class

Nice morning tour with Jack

We did the walking tour with Jack. He was terrific. His stories about the history of Prague were well presented. The pace was a bit quick for the seniors in the tour but he never lost a guest and no one complained. We would definitely recommend him.

Walking Old City/Jewish Quarter

I had spent the prior 2 days touring but our guide showed me places I hadn’t seen! Rarik had interesting stories and knowledge. He was pleasant and amenable. I was very interested in Jewish Quarter and stayed there for additional on site visits to the Jewish Cemetery, synagogues, Memorial To Shoah .

Allen is an Excellent Guide!

Allen took us on an excellent walking tour - we were lucky to have it turn out to be a surprise-private for the two of us! His knowledge was both deep and broad, he answered questions very well, and his choice of stories was excellent. It was a pleasure to spend a couple of hours with him, and it increased the appreciation we had for the rest of our time in Prague.

Interesting

Good walking tour lots of interesting content. Tour guide Neil was great very knowledgeable. Tour was at a good pace for all ages some old people in our group and they were able to keep up

The walk was very...

The walk was very informative. There were many kids in the party and it was too heavy on thr history.

Informative, Engaging and Memorable

We loved our tour with Vojta. He was knowledgeable, interesting and interested in us and what we wished to learn and discover. He succinctly explained the split of Czechoslovakia into the Czech Republic and Slovakia and provided clear and engaging information about each site along the way. I should add that he went out of his way to find us when we got to the meeting place late and couldn't find him! He found us and absolutely made our visit to Prague memorable.

The tour was very enjoyable and educational

The guide was very knowledgeable, very pleasant and overall we had a great experience and one we would highly recommend!

No substitute for local knowledge

After a delayed start due no fault of the guide Vaclav we were taken on an insider tour of the old town and the Jewish quarter. While the focal points were limited it didn’t matter as there is so much history pertaining to these areas. For example the famous astronomical clock took about fifteen minutes to fully explain and appreciate - a lot more than a simple short term muse when the hour mark tolls. Having the benefit of just ourselves with the guide was lucky as the tour becomes more like a private conversation. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with Vaclav as the almost two hour ramble flew by in a flash.

Excellent Orientation

My father and I immensely enjoyed our tour with Allen. He was perfectly engaging and knowledgeable. Although this tour doesn’t enter the various sites it visits, we left with a great foundation that guided us through the remainder of our time in the city. We also learned intricate details of places we’d walked by, that we never would have otherwise known, such as the myriad symbols of the astronomical clock. Allen is a great storyteller, and answered the questions we had. Afterward, we wished we could have had more time with him. The best tour guide we had in Prague.

Very interesting tour

The tour was great, we were with Eugenia. She is a very skilled guide and her storytelling kept us engaged for the whole duration of the tour. You can see the the tourist old town of Prague from a whole other point of view, and get other hidden gems that are usually missed through intriguing stories.

Nice walk through Prague

We had a really a really great time and our guide Dana was awesome. We stopped at all the sights and it was ready to keep up.

Great experience!

Really interesting tour! The tour guide Dana was so knowledgeable. I liked how she included stories that connected Prague to the various countries we came from.

Great tour

Allen was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable and interesting stories. We enjoyed our rainy day tour. Loved learning all the history from our tour guide.

Great storyteller

(night)Tourgide Alan is a great storyteller! The stories were smooth and detailed. The evening tour does give an extra dimension to the stories.

Great tour

Thomas, the tour guide, was great! Also a great length for the tour, and stories were interesting. Cool sights!
