    FIVE STARS! Highly Recommended!
    We did this tour on our first morning in Prague and it was a really special introduction to this beautiful city. Our guide Tomáš was simply fantastic - very knowledgeable and friendly and he made our tour of the castle and the cathedral such a memorable and educational experience. An absolute highlight of our time in Prague. Thank you Tomáš! Highly recommended!

    Guide Peter was Perfect in Prague!
    As a travel agency owner, we selected this company for a private tour on our arrival day. Private is the only way to go! We had a WONDERFUL private driver/guide in Prague named Peter. The car he drove us in was so clean and comfy and his knowledge about the city, history, culture, food, etc was excellent. I am so very happy we had him as our tour guide on the first day we arrived to help us get acquainted with the city. Excellent guide, tour, and value!

    Amazing Experience
    What can I say. I am a procrastinator and never book stuff until the last minute. I decided to go a little more high-end than usual and ended up booking this tour the night before. Our expectations were low as we had typically (for us) waited last minute. Our Prague Castle tour was from 12 to 3 and we ended up being late because the stairs up to the Castle took more out of us than expected. While on the stairs walking to the Castle, our guide texted me to let me know what he was wearing, and where he was. I explained to him we would be a little late, and he assured us that it was not a problem. When we arrived, we met Matej. He practically identified us before we got to him, introduced himself and indicated how pleased he was to be giving us a personal tour. As we continued, he took us everywhere around the castle and elaborated on super interesting and fascinating details. He knew specific dates, time periods and had an answer to each of our questions. He was so pleasant and accommodating. He did not wait to have us ask for him to take photographs. Periodically, he would say this is where I’m taking a picture of you. “It’s a good spot!” We now have awesome pictures of our tour because of him. Although one of the attractions was closed, Matej compensated by taking us to the John Lennon wall, which was amazing. He gave us context and background on how it came to be and why. We had great conversation with him about all aspects of the Czech Republic, its people and what we had seen. We ended with him taking us to beautiful multi level gardens to tour and enjoy and then we said farewell. He was a true professional, and we were very fortunate to have him as our guide. Rarely do we do reviews. However, this one was necessary. It was one of the highlights of our trip. Thx Trip Advisor. Good Call!!!

    Excellent Prague custom private tour
    We had an amazing time with LucyTours! They were able to customize a private tour to our specific needs and we ended up seeing everything we asked for and even more. Our guide Amalka was excellent, friendly and very knowledgeable about the city and its history. Overall a great experience!

    Best tour to book when you arrive in Prague
    This is a FIVE STAR experience! You will not be disappointed and it’s really the only way to explore the city, its history and experience Prague from a local’s perspective. Our guide, Matej, was EXCELLENT! He spent the entire 3-hours moving us around the city, hopping on the tram, getting us in front of the crowds — timed perfectly for special moments like changing of the guards or the ringing of the clock tower. Every moment was full of interesting & useful information that enriched our experience in Prague for the rest of our trip. Highly recommend, especially if you can get Matej!

    Informative & Fun
    We had an excellent tour with Günther. He was incredibly knowledgable about the area (both in terms of history as well as present-day dynamics) and was flexible in customizing the tour to cover things we thought would be interesting. He showed us a few local gems as well, which was much appreciated. Would definitely recommend for those who want a bit of history in addition to seeing the sights.

    Astonishing Tour!
    Eva met us promptly at the hotel in the morning and guided three of us on an incredible four-hour tour of Prague. The tour was absolutely magnificent, and we covered so much ground. Eva's skills, knowledge, and expertise in guiding us through the city were truly astonishing. Her attention to detail and deep understanding of the history made the experience both educational and highly entertaining. We felt lucky to have her personal experience and by the time we were done we thought she was family. We feel we've gained a much closer connection to the rich history of this beautiful city. Thank you again for such a wonderful tour ---It's one we'll always remember. Captain Jack

    Worth the splurge
    Fantastic tour and worth the splurge. We saw a lot more than would have been possible for us and appreciated having the car. The combination of driving and walking was very helpful. Natalia was very well versed and flexible in creating the right experience for us. It oriented us to Prague and helped the rest of our visit there.

    Customised and informative
    I thoroughly recommend. Our guide was Martin and he was terrific. We customised a tour that met our needs and Martin was very informative giving us a history lesson as well as talking about the geography and local culture and customs. In the end our tour lasted 4 hours allowing us to see the Astronomical clock chime.

    Petr is the Guide that you want for this Great Tour
    If you take this tour, go with Petr Kotlar. He was amazing! He was a fascinating guy and he went out of his way to make sure that we learned everything that we could about Prague and the sites we visited. He also made sure to move at just the right pace for us and stopped as many times as we needed to so that we could get plenty of pictures, rest for a minute (because neither my husband or I are in the best shape due to back injuries that are triggered by walking) or just tell us as much as he could about everything that we were seeing. When he dropped us off, he even gave us a list of places to go in Prague to eat, shop, etc. He was a fantastic tour guide! As for the tour itself, it was great. You got to see a good amount of the town and the cathedrals and the Church of the Bones were amazing! I hesitated at first to book this tour because I was worried that I would not have a long enough time to spend in the Church of the Bones, but Petr made sure that I got all the time that I wanted there so that wasn’t an issue. I highly recommend taking this tour with Petr!!!

    Lucy - herself - is an absolute pleasure !!
    We arrived in Prague by train from Vienna, settled into our hotel in Mala Strana neighborhood and proceeded to take the metro to the Centre. Following our iPhones and Apple Maps - we felt like we were walking around aimlessly.... so somehow, I found the phone number for Lucy Tours and spoke to Lucy - the owner - and decided to splurge of a private tour by car. Lucy booked us 2 days out with one of her colleagues. The next day our group tour to Cesky Krumlov cancelled last minute at 9 am - so we called, and Lucy answered - rearranging schedules and dropped what she saw doing and drove directly to our hotel with her Mercedes van and proceeded to start our tour. We told Lucy what we already saw in Prague the previous day. She started with the monastery, then the Castle and St Vitus ... then on to Jewish Quarters, ending with dropping at the Franz Klafka statue - as it revolved at the top of the hour. Taking a private driven tour is a bit of a splurge for us - but this time it was definitely worth every euro. Lucy's tour was well paced and her dialogue with us was just right - just enough talking. In addition, Lucy is a beautiful person inside and out, and without a doubt one of the best touring decisions we ever have made Thanks Lucy ... Cindy and Paul

    Fabulous!
    Patrick was awesome and was such a treat to have as a private tour guide! His boat was gorgeous! This is a must do if ever in Prague! The views of Prague and his knowledge of the city and surrounding area was just amazing.

Good guide with a wealth of knowledge and perspective. See the Jewish Quarter with a guide so you will learn more and hopefully we do not continue to make the same mistakes as the past.

An exceptionally well done tour. Amalka was one of the best tour guides I have ever enjoyed in any city. Her explanations were thorough and interesting — our time with her flew by so fast! She really brought the story of this incredible area and its people to life.

We had a fabulous time with Amalka on the Jewish walking tour. In Prague. Having someone with a connection to the Jewish community gives her a perspective that is remarkably relevant. The depth of her understanding, her sense of the history of Jews in Eastern Europe, and her discussion on the evolution of Jewish institutions and how they accommodated antisemitism, Hitler, and communism made this one of the best walking tours we have taken

We have taken Jewish tours all over the world and this ranks as one of the best.

It is amazing to see a city in Europe that has preserved Jewish heritage the way that Prague has. Also the impact Jewish people have had on the development of Prague. This is a must see. Also very important for future generations. Holocaust Memorial in the synagogue is emotional
