          Private tour was great, could not recommend more!
          Our tour with Eva was fantastic, we could not recommend more. Eva is sweet, has a nice calm energy even while navigating throngs of tourists, and is so knowledgable about the history of the area, which is always a complicated amalgamation of culture, politics, religion, art, and architecture. She loves sharing information about her culture and history and it really showed. We packed in quite a bit in the 3 hours we were together, though I suspect we didn't even get 1% of what she has stored in her head! It was just my husband and I, and we were thankful to have done the private tour, as covering as much ground as we did would have been quite tricky with a group. Thank you, Eva, and Lucy Tours!

          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!!!

        Jan, our guide, was very knowledgeable and started our tour from the moment he met us at the hotel so we learned some interesting facts about Prague before leaving the city. We have a bias towards history and Jan was happy to answer questions and give us helpful perspectives. The Karlstejn tour was also good although we did not have time to join an English speaking tour around the chapel. We took in some extra sites on the way back to Prague. Altogether a very pleasant day. Highly recommend.

        We had a fantastic trip to this beautiful castle first constructed in 1348 by King Charles IV. We had a very nice guided trip that was informative and the outside of the castle is quite amazing.

        Even better, our guide Petr was very informative and friendly and we learned so much about the Czech Republic from talking with him! He also took us to a phenomenal local cafe with really awesome food! We ended up meeting up with him again later in the week for a walking tour of off-the-radar sites and views in Prague that we never would have found otherwise!

        Would definitely recommend to all.

        We originally booked the Karlstejn Castle tour, Patrick was absolutely the best! Patrick's knowledge of history was absolutely unmatched. If you want a thorough history lesson of Prague and Europe in general, hire Patrick. Myself, my wife and my mother-in-law enjoyed our tour so much that we hired Patrick for the Prague Castle tour for the next day, what a great decision!! He knew what places we could skip so we had plenty of time for the "must see" spots. We enjoyed this tour so much that we booked Patrick to drive us from Prague to Vienna. He took us to another Castle and a little town for lunch before arriving in Vienna. We had such a wonderful experience with Patrick, we would highly recommend them if you are going to be in Prague.
