We were given a personal guide who gave us a fantastic insight to the astronomical clock with its history and what we could see. The very same guide met us at the castle and again gave a very good history and present idea of what happened and happens at the castle now. Would highly recommend this tour to others heading to Prague.

The Tower is beautiful and the view at the top truly priceless. The reservation service was efficient and also the ticket meeting and delivery. I got in right away and we avoided hours of queuing because then outside the entrance there was a mile-long line to get the tickets

Everything was fine. We bought the tickets online, so as not to queue, which in December is very large. They were tickets without guide, even so when we came to get the tickets we were given a little speech about the history of the cathedral. The experience was very positive.

This package was excellent and allowed us to flexibly see three of Prague's main attractions. The staff was very helpful when we picked up the tickets and explained how they worked. Highly recommend.

I would definitely do this again. The lines for tickets was ridiculous, and was great to skip these lines. Introduction was well done - highly recommend
