      Loud and irritating
      I wouldn't recommend this unless you want to be apart of a zoo circus! It was so noisy, kids running around everywhere and people constantly standing up and moving around to take photos. Couldnt hear the commentary. It's a shame!

      Best river cruise in Prague
      Beautiful all Electric boat which was immaculately presented. The commentary was in several languages and the sites identified were relevant to the one hour cruise. There was table service throughout with a varied selection of reasonably priced beverages and drinks. Having seen the competitors leaving from downstream of the Charles Bridge we made a wise decision in selecting Prague Boats. The new fleet is really impressive and runs like clockwork.

      Lovely boat trip with leisurely lunch
      Really clean nice boat. Busy but staff very attentive and happy and helpful. Food lovely. Something for everyone and lots of it. All helped by it being a lovely sunny day. We had to ask for the heating to be turned off as with the sun burning down on us. The boat was quite warm.

      Cold trip
      We got on the boat, very nice and promised to be a great trip. The food was fine, service very good and the live music was excellent. Unfortunately it was bitterly cold, blankets were handed out but it was so cold that I had to put my coat on. It would have been a great experience had it been warmer. Such a shame.

      Great trip
      Good value, 900 Kc, £30.63, for 2 tickets. Starts from Cechuv Most (Czech Bridge) passing upstream under historic Charles Bridge to a Weir, turning around, moving back downstream through the sights again turning round again just before Hlavkuv Most near Stvarnice Island. We thought the skipper was in a hurry to get back for his tea as the commentary said we were approaching the island when we were already heading back from it. Recorded commentary to music of Vltava, by Smetana from his Suite Ma Blast. Excellent trip, not bad value, but one slight whinge was the heavy boot on the gas pedal meant we were finished 10 minutes short of the One Hour advertised. Naughty!

      Disapponting!
      Spent most of the time in locks, covered very little distance and arrived back 15 mins before the scheduled end of the cruise. The front of the boat was closed off while the staff prepared the area for the evening cruise. And the outside deck was roped off. I don’t recommend this company.

      We went at the 6:15pm time, there is not alot to see. But we did take some nice pictures with light reflections on the water. Our captain spoke English very well

      Views were good, however less than 50 min of cruising in circle is not worth it. Voice guide could be better and more interesting.

    Compared to the level of the buffet this should have been 39,- instead of the 89€ paid for the window seat. All booze excluded.
    The food was tasty and ok but maybe not worth the ticket. Deserts quite poor.
    Efficient crew.
    The band consisted of a quitar player, violinist and a ”singer” that butchered all the cover songs they played. Musicians were quite ok.
    We had a good time powered by slightly overpriced booze but it really was not worth the ticket if I may say so.

    Nice trip with good food.

    Unfortunately, our trip got off to a disappointing start as there was confusion with regards to what is included in the Deluxe package which we decided to take to enhance our experience. The wording with regards to drink is confusing and I highly recommend that you read it very carefully before proceeding. You get unlimited water (not alcohol) and one bottle of white or red per couple - we had to ask for our 2nd bottle as there were 4 of us in our party. I think Prague Boats need re-word their description.

    The Deluxe package means that you will be at the front of the boat with more space which does help with some of the views and adds to the experience. It would have been nice to have some commentary on what we could see but the priority was music. Overall, a good trip but ensure you read all the small print very carefully so you know what you will receive as part of your package.

    Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on your recent experience with our Deluxe package. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the trip and the food, but we're sorry to learn about the confusion regarding the inclusions in the package, particularly about the drinks. Your feedback is incredibly valuable to us as it highlights areas where we can improve our communication to ensure that our guests have a clear understanding of what to expect. We take your suggestion to re-word our description of the Deluxe package seriously and will review our promotional materials to make the distinctions between water and alcoholic beverages clearer, as well as the specifics regarding the quantity of included drinks. We're pleased that you appreciated the added space and views from the front of the boat that the Deluxe package offers. However, we understand your desire for more commentary on the sights along the river. We aim to balance various elements of the cruise experience, such as music and informative content, and will take your feedback into account as we continue to enhance our service offerings. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you aboard again in the future, offering an even better and more seamless experience. Warm regards, Prague Boats team

    What a lovely way to spend an evening. A warm welcome aboard with a glass of bubbles and a gentle breeze with the sides of the boat part open. Once we started to move, the sides were fully opened and the roof taken back to allow fabulous views of Prague. Buffet food was plentiful, wine waiters were attentive and live band played music for everyone. Very relaxing, fun evening.

    What a fantastic night! We visited on a sunny evening in May and the top of the boat was down. We sat in the exclusive seats right at the edge of the boat, I would definitely recommend paying the extra to get these seats as our view wasn't blocked by anything or anyone. The views were fantastic, they take you a good way down the river so we were able to see areas of Prague we hadn't explored by foot. Live music was played - initially this was classical piano, but as we got later into the night a singer joined and they played some well known singalongs, both in English and Czech. It was an excellent atmosphere with everyone on the boat joining in! The food was great, lots of choice and very tasty - just be aware the line for the buffet gets very long. Later in the evening as the sun set the glass top was brought across the boat - I will say that the glass was not very clear, so if you're visiting on a rainy or colder day when the glass top is across for the full trip then your views will not be as spectacular. I would also recommend that visitors do not sit in the 'de luxe' section as this is not open top, and it is away from everyone else so you would not get to experience the brilliant atmosphere that we enjoyed.

    We paid for the VIP cruise at the front of the boat. Not worth money at all . We were supposed to get a running commentary of the views in praque . This did not happen.
    The live band was playing at the rear of the boat and we only had the live band for 15 minutes.
    We questioned why the band was not playing at the front of the boat and ended up arguing with the manager who was really rude and aggressive.

    It was purely constructive criticism but they took it personally and ruined the experience.

    I would recommend that you do not book the VIP experience it is not worth the money, it seems the best value is the middle package

    My wife and I decided to do this river cruise for my 60th Birthday, we went into it slightly skeptical and with our expectations possibly a little low, I guess to avoid disappointment. How wrong we were, from first boarding the boat it was well organized, tastefully decorated and we got a lovely window table on our own. The staff were superb, the views were amazing, in fact, absolutely nothing significant to complain about, even the drinks were reasonably priced and the food was pretty good for a buffet style dinner. Our Ukranian waiter Daniel was an absolute star and was the icing on the cake. We absolutely recommend this river cruise, I would recommend from my own perspective getting the higher priced packages if you want to avoid being seated with other people, the standard packages are better for large groups. Great evening, great job Prague Boats!

    So you may think you don't want to do this because it is too touristy. We felt that way but then figured, we're tourists. It really was a great way to see the city from the water. The food was better than expected and any buffet line moved quickly. The prices for additional drinks were very reasonable considering you are captive. But the staff was great and the entertainment was so much fun - they really got people up and dancing.

    Great for our first night in Prague. We booked online and did not need to stop by ticket booth to get tickets even though it said to do so on the paper. Glad the line was short. We arrived about 615pm and was able to board right away and begin light service. Booked the lowest price option and on the boat I saw no difference other than we were seated in the middle rather than a window seat which was totally fine. No problem seeing either direction. Our waiter spoke Excellent English. Drinks came out quickly after ordering. There is no ice for the sodas. The still water large size comes in a flask to pour your own. Ended up ordering 2 of these. Overall our drink order was less than upgrading to the all inclusive. The buffet food was good, hot and fresh. They set up 2 places on the boat and you can apparently go either place, but we didn't know so waited in the longest line. I loved the Goulash soup, first time to try it. I had seconds. Everything I ate was good. Very filling meal. Entertainment from Prague Duo was the whole night and they were energetic and fun. You could go upstairs to top deck anytime. It was chilly in May, so glad I took a sweater. We went back up after dark and enjoyed the night views. It's the smoking area, so there's that, but there is enough space to not let it bother a Non-smoker too bad. Overall a fun relaxing night. I'd recommend for your first night in town when you are still recovering from jet lag and time changes. Took an uber there but uber would not come back to get us. So make sure you know your options on how to get back to hotel. Apparently you are not suppose to flag down taxis in Prague, but my phone died and we just didn't know. Lol

    The quality of food is what you'd expect on a school camp. Table water cost over €6. The price for drinks was extortion. If you lost your drinks ticket to pay at the end of the cruise, it's a €100 fine.
    We paid extra for the window seat but were seated with strangers. Can't see out the window anyway.
    Expect to stand in the queue for a good 10+ mins for your selections.
    The desserts were probably day-old dried chocolate cake and frozen cheesecake.
    Do yourself a favour and go to nice waterfront restaurant where the quality of food is better and staff are nicer.
    Don't waste your hard earned money on this dinner cruise - there are many nicer places to experience.

    Thank you for your feedback, and we're truly sorry that your dining experience did not meet expectations. It’s disappointing to hear that the food and beverage quality fell short and that drink prices felt excessive. Additionally, we apologize for the inconvenience with seating arrangements and the lack of a clear view, especially after paying extra for a window seat. Waiting in line for food and any issues with desserts should not be part of a premium experience, and we’ll review these areas to improve for future guests. Your suggestion of considering alternative dining experiences is appreciated, and we’ll work to better match the quality of Prague’s dining standards. Thank you again for sharing your honest thoughts.

    We paid 300 Euros for this " luxury" experience. We arrived to rhe departure area at 6.30 pm well before the advertised deadline. We pre paid rhe ride on the website of the vessle operator and had the printer receip for rhe booking. We followed the instructions on the confirmation email and turned up at pier 3 the line of waiting people was terrible. Even though we had pre piad and pre printed out.e ticket we srill had to wait 30 minutes at pier 3 cashier window to obtain a table number and to be staffed to pier 1 for departure in the end. Highly unprofessional attitude. On the cruise its.self over crowded the self service buffee was a terrible experience 45 min staying in a line to get some food. Drinks had to.be paid for.extra. Our waiter was a Ukrainian cheap laborer who complained to use how his Czech rasist employer constantly under pays him and forces him to.work over time for free. Highly unprofessional experience very stressful for 300.euros shame on you.
    Everyone please avoid using Prague boats
