- handyandy240 contributionsDon’t Use the Hop On Hop Off as it’s not worth it.There are 2 routes, a red and blue route. The red route takes you to the main attractions in Prague which can be walked when you get your bearings and dependent where you stay. The Blue route is just a waste of time. The buses are small rickety things with no on board commentary with an App used as the main source of info. The only info you get on board is when you’re at a stop and the guide shouts out the sights in the area. Some time the bus driver needs to take a 10 min break at various stops. The main pick up point is at the Old Square and the guides there weren’t fully aware of when bus arrived. Throughout the route it was also difficult to identify where the drop off and pick off points ere as the attractions were quite a bit away. My advice is the work out your route and walk or get an Uber which is cheap as chips.Written 28 January 2025
- Camper244087540430 contributionsA FAIRE ABSOLUMENT MALGRE L'EMOTIONWe visited TEREZIN today with a guide (please excuse me I didn't remember his name) but he went to architecture school, he is tall with over 50 years. With his 30 years of experience and his incredible mastery of this terrible period, he shared his passion with us. We particularly liked his personality and his commitment to transmitting these events to us. The duty of remembrance takes on its full meaning in this small town. A lot of emotion and a big thank you for his professionalism. From FrenchWritten 8 January 2025
- 7fumia0 contributionsWe enjoyed this tour very muchIt was very educational and good experience for us. The tour was something we could not cover on our own and we highly recommend this tour for anyone interested in learning about history of this period.Written 28 December 2024
- OnAir7849920 contributionsEnjoy the viewsWell worth the visit and walk up to the castle. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable. Inside castle is interesting, but best part is views of the castle and surrounding area.Written 28 October 2024
- Monica M0 contributionsGood afternoon activity, with just slight areas for improvement.Was in Prague with my elderly mother and teenage daughter for a few days. I teach History, so know all about this place, but it was my mum who was really desperate to go. It was an informative and enjoyable trip. Peter, the guide, was clearly very knowledgeable and experienced, & I particularly enjoyed his commentary on the way to Terezin as he spoke about the History of Prague as well as pointing out important landmarks from WW2, e.g the location of the assassination of Reinhard Heiydrich. What was slightly disappointing is that the trip did feel quite rushed and rather passive and it wasn’t Peter who took us around the small fortress, it was a member of staff but then Peter repeated some information after that so feel that could have been coordinated better. My mum has a walking stick and the amount of walking with no stops or time for food (the teenager was a bit tired too) would be something to consider, especially since we’d left our hotel at 11am and were not back until 7pm. We had brought lunch with us and snacked on it, but we weren’t sure if we were ‘allowed’ so made it a little awkward. There’s not enough time to do everything of course and it still a worthwhile trip and important historical site to visit , but would just suggest that the layout of the visit is communicated more clearly at the beginning with clear overview of walking expectations etc ( we didn’t know we would be going down a 500 meter long tunnel underground with stairs and uneven ground for example), that there’s more coherent overview between guides & that perhaps a little bit more interaction with individual guests where possible, eg checking for understanding or focusing on one key era. Whilst I already knew a lot my mum and daughter struggled at times to keep up or to understand without understanding being checked & I had to explain or synthesis a lot of what was being told to us.Written 23 October 2024
- Thacky20150 contributionsMemorable tour the beautiful city of PragueThroughly enjoyed our 2 hour bus tour round the beautiful city of Prague. Information provided was insightful and really helped us understand the history behind the beautiful architecture and sites of Prague. The architecture is beautifully preserved and fine fettle. We had a welcome 40 mins break at the castle to tour the castle and surrounding buildings take on some refreshments and take some awe inspiring hill tops views of Prague & river.Written 8 September 2024
- pauldevenny0 contributionsVery informative tour of the Terezin Memorial and related sites.Excellent, informative guide who has had a career in tourist guiding and grew up locally. Able to answer all questions with detail. Great timing on tour with fort, cemetery, crematorium, and museum all on the agenda. Packed with information. Heart-wrenching to see the paintings made by the children who were shipped to the extermination camps.Written 12 August 2024
- OnAir621993471910 contributionsRushed and inappropriate commentaryThere wasn’t enough time, so we were rushed around 3 venues. The last one we had 20 minutes in a museum, which was pointless. The tour guide was too politically opinionated for my liking, and looking at some of the faces of other guests I was not alone. He was pretty macabre as well. At one point he laughed as he mimed the hanging of a human being. There was zero time for quiet and reflection, which I feel was necessary visiting such a place.Written 21 June 2024
- canadianmaple670 contributionsA worthy tour during your stay in PragueOur guide, Peter, was phenomenal. His passion and knowledge of Terezin and Prague exceeded all expectations. My partner and I felt the tour was educational and we gained a lot from seeing the camp, ghetto, memorial, and museum. Thank you Peter for making this a wonderful experience for us!Written 6 June 2024
- amy7520230 contributionsHuge disappointment - don’t do itThis was a truly waste of money and time. We did Prague unlimited tour which supposedly included a walking tour, a boat tour, and a bus tour. We were only two couples so we thought, great we can ask questions and have a really interesting tour. Boy were we wrong! Well the walking tour didn’t happen. All our guide did is to usher us from the meeting point to the bus, through the grounds of Prague palace in less than 15 minutes with barely any explanation about the palace or the cathedral to our lunch spot. When the “tour” was complete, she gave us 45 minutes to take pictures and see the change of guards. We got annoyed when we asked questions so a hour into the tour, we stopped asking. The lunch was not great and no one got their soup or salad although it was part of what was included in the lunch. Oh and if you want any drinks or water, be ready to pay for it. After lunch, she dragged us to the boat again not really pointing things out or explaining anything. The boat was a waste of time as well. The explanation were done through speakers which made it hard to understand anything. After the boat tour, she again rushed us to the meeting point for the bus. One lady needed to stop to buy some water to take her meds, but the guide wasn’t having it. She said no and kept walking. We arrived at the final meeting point with about 40 minutes to spare. She could have explained some history about the clock tower or the square or anything actually but no. She said bye and don’t be late for the bus. Our bus tour was at 4 pm, smack in the middle of the insane traffic. And there was no guide on the bus, just earphones and a recording. The we’re stuck in the traffic for a while so we decided to get of the bus and walk home. The tour was super expensive about $100 per person and such a huge disappointment. It was truly a waste of our time and money.Written 26 May 2024
- Journey5219470 contributionsFascinating insights into a tragic timeGreat guides, very well informed, who provided lots of interesting information and were able to answer questions. A very thorough and helpful visit! A small group in a very comfortable bus with an excellent driver.Written 19 May 2024
- abK7727PS0 contributionsThis company rips people off and their sales people will tell lies to get your money! Take the authentic hop on hop offThis company will do anything to get you money. They promise you a tour then put you on an APP on the bus which doesn't work all that well. The salesperson lied to us and told us we would have audio and free entrance. We should have known better. Take the authentic HOP on HOP off sightseeing bus which is a much better experience. The sales people are also more honest. These people really are thieves. Once they get your money they disappear!Written 17 April 2024
- dubs1110 contributionsAmazing TripAbsolutely fantastic trip. This is in relation to the history of WW2 war & camps. Our tour guide was exceptional, very knowledgeable and went above and beyond ensuring we had a fantastic experience. I would highly recommend this trip if history interests youWritten 2 January 2024
- becky_barrie0 contributionsVery enjoyableThis is our second visit to Prague last time we were exhausted from all the walking and still didn't get to see enough so it was a lovely experience being on the tour, it was very informative and I loved the traditional classical music playing between sights. We stopped at Prague Castle. You have a short time to look around, then return to the tour, and we opted to stay and do castle tours instead, which isn't a problem at all. Our driver was lovely and very experiencedWritten 1 December 2023

The first thing we did on arrival was to use Martin Tour for a quick orientation of the city. Certainly worth doing. The bus was rather old and yes the historic cobbles will shake you about, but it was easy to book, well organised and you received a nice welcome. The commentary, which was very interesting is in many languages. Please note: the tour stops at the Prague Castle complex. You can alight there for a 40 minute walk around/refreshments, but if you don't re-board at the requested time there's no refund on your ticket.

If you travel to Prague, this is a good option to see the city sitting down. That you are visiting for two hours. When you arrive at the castle area they give you 30 minutes to explore it on your own. It's worth it when you've been walking all day and you feel like making a more relaxed plan. It is an option to see the city without getting tired.

It was a rainy day in Prague today, and no one be blamed for that. When the bus is ready and the passengers aren’t let in to get out of the rain because the driver is too busy finishing his cigarette, we’ll, that’s a different story…..the start was the good part, and I shan’t bore you with every minute detail. Let’s just say my knowledge of Prague was not enhanced by the sporadic and seemingly random clips of information. I do however know that where ever I choose to go in Prague from now, I will get a discount for presenting my Martin Tours ticket.
People choose tours for information and orientation. Martin tours provide neither. I was bowled over to find out that people have been doling out money for this drivel since 1990. Wonders never cease.

The guide audio system didn’t work on half of the Seats. The driver picked up people he knew and dropped them of randomly like a taxi. No one talked to us, explained what the tour included or tried to help us.
