About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- BBHighwycombe0 contributionsAmazing Graffiti workshop with SanyWe did a Graffiti workshop with Sany today, having seen her work on Travelman with Joe Lycett and Adam Buxton. It was the best experience of our trip to Prague! We took our two teenagers and she got us all involved and learning new techniques and assisted us to help us achieve the design we wanted. It was creative, fun and informative. Sany is really enthusiastic and highly skilled and really cared about the finished artwork which we were really proud of. All equipment is provided, plus great photos at the end and it lasted 2.5hrs (though didn't feel long) so good value. We loved it!Written December 29, 2024
- 65christag0 contributionsMy students' FAVORITE TOUR--it's a MUST-DO!!!I teach a Study Abroad class, and this is the second year we've done this tour. It is simply INCREDIBLE!!!! You will see a ton of Prague that is the REAL Prague, all of the music, art, food and inspiration since the Czech Republic became a democracy. This tour is my students' favorite tour! I highly, highly recommend!!!!Written July 17, 2024
- Carolyn K0 contributionsFabulous tour - saw cool parts of Prague we would have never known aboutOur guide was so enthusiastic and interesting - we learned a ton and saw some areas we would have never known to explore. Gave us lots of places to return to.Written November 26, 2023
- MarekDD0 contributions10/10Great activity , great tips, friendly crew. My advice, sign up for the trip on the beginning of your Prague trip. You’ll learn so much about that town, not just about churches, castle and bridge!Written February 23, 2023

- Caroline B0 contributionsAwesome private graffiti workshopWe did the private graffiti workshop with Peter and it was the highlight of our Prague trip. Peter is a super kind guy and he showed us a lot of nice tricks to make this amazing graffiti. We had a great time and are really proud of our own piece of art. We would definitely recommend doing the workshop!Written August 9, 2020

- Andrea M0 contributionsVery interesting alternative tour of PragueIf you want to see the city with a different point of view you are in the right place! Tomas is a perfect guide, he can satisfy all your curiosity about the place that you visit with!!! Very very suggest!Written November 18, 2018
- HRAS_PET0 contributionsget to see the other sidePrague is more than "Tourist-Wonderland" and Stag-Parties. Yes the historical buildings are fascinating and YES the beer is cheap and VERY good ... BUT there ist dramatically more to Prague than that. Our guide Tomas gave insights in a culture that is used to work unseen and in a close group. Many things we saw and found are only possible in the special context that the history of CZ and the city provide. As a tourist or even as a short time ExPat you have no chance to find all those spots on your own. Haveing an active member of the artists community showing you around is a chance you should not miss.Written October 22, 2018
- edith5730 contributionsAlternative Prague ToursIt was very intetesting to see a lot of the young and creatve scene in Prague, the othet side of this city, about which you can't find in any written guide. Thomas guided us very competent and in a very friendly way and gave us answers to all our questions. Thank you very much!Written September 17, 2018
- Mateusz K0 contributionsAlternative PragueWe are very pleasantly surprised by this trip, a very nice alternative to regular trips, Tomas talked great and showed us places to which we would not normally hit. I honestly recommend this trip.Written September 3, 2018

The tour with Thomas in the first days after the opening of the border in June 2020 was really the highlight of our Prague tour. He showed us his personal places and gave us the possibility to enjoy a atsmosphere of the city and a scene we never would have accessed without him. He showed us alternative and authentic art places, galleries and theaters that really inherited a special character of Prague. I really would recommend to do the tour in the first days of your stay in Prague because you will get recommandations where you could go to in the following days.

This was one of the best tours ever taken in any city! The guide is part of the alternative culture scene himself, and shows you what's going on in the city. He took an hour extra with us, and answered all of our questions very openly. Walking through the city, you get a better feeling of what the day to day life might be like. 100% recommended!!!

Probably the best tour I've done in Prague. Tomas, our guide, was super knowledgeably and enthusiastic to share his love of the city with us and I really enjoyed being shown a lot of interesting places I would not have discovered on my own. Highly recommended!

THIS TOUR WAS AMAZING! I would recommend this experience to anyone visiting Prague, it is a brilliantly planned route of places that tourists are not aware of- a true insight into the beautiful, authentic world of young artists in Prague. Our tour guide Sofie was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and we were able to have a laugh like friends do! It is absolutely worth the money, and I will be telling all of my friends about this. The highlight of my trip!

This was my second time doing the Alternative Prague Tour, the first being back in 2018 with a couple of mates, and as with that first one, this time with the family absolutely didn't disappoint. When pulling together the list of things we wanted to do for my special birthday trip to Prague this year, this was at the top. Really easy to book online beforehand, and lots of availability.
Our family group of three met up with Sofie outside Foot Locker in Namesti Republiky, there was one other couple from Stockholm and another family of three from the US, so a nice sized group to be with. Sofie was lovely, really informative, and brought the recent history of Prague to life before we started walking and travelling. The tour really is great, and it's not long before you venture out of the main city altogether on both tram and metro and start going to places that you really wouldn't have a clue existed, it really is quite amazing to see the most incredible creative and cultural spaces that the people of Prague have imagined and built that you'd never knew existed behind the most nondescript exteriors.
I was so pleased to visit some new developments since I first did the tour back in 2018 - especially the old barracks, it's difficult to convey the sheer scale of the place - but equally I loved gong back to both VNITRO and Cross, where we chilled and drank with Sofie for a good hour after the tour had ended, and where she was still happy to tell us even more about Prague and recommend loads of places to go. Our 14yo daughter was enthralled throughout the whole four hours, which is no mean feat and shows just how interactive and engaging this tour is.
We hope to come back again to Prague last year as it's such an amazing place, and we'll definitely be doing the tour again.

I had much fun! I am so glad I took the tour. The tour will guide you through some nice local areas, show some hotspots and street art and give you insiders tips. It was very informative as been told by the local itself. We've been guided by Tomas, a very kind person with a good know how about the city culture and history. What I found nice is that he takes the time to guide you through (even though we had bad rainy weather) and at the end of the tour he'd stayed for a drink with the group to answer any of our questions. Definitely worth taking the tour, if you want to get to know Pragues alternative side from a locals perspective. Thank you so much Tomas! I hope you can continue this for a long time 🙏🏾

Can't recommend this enough if you're interested in modern culture and learning the stories behind the vibrant art scene in Prague. Our guide was so conversational, informative and clearly had a passion for his community and art, it was such a lovely introduction to the beautiful city!
Plenty of photo ops and took a route we'd never of found on our own. 10/10, thank you!

Our congenial tour guide (Marek) spoke a clear and understandable English. A big focus was on the contemporary and alternative art scene, especially street art, indie shops and alternative art projects - all about the Prague of today. Marek really provided surprising insider-tips and showed coolest localtions - where we never expected and far away from the common tourist spots. He gave interesting background information about every stop. So, we discovered many stories behind the scenes and we could see an alternative, living Prague and, suddenly, understand even better the current situation of the city and the art scene, saw even also the Graffiti with different eyes.
It was really an amazing and estonishing trip through the Prague of today with all the insights to the development of Prague’s current art, cultural streams and its inhabitants.
Absolutely worth to see!

It was like he said "no boring information about kings from the past". Very interesting and the places that we visited weren't your typical tourist spots. If you're into art this is definitely a must:)
Tomas took some of his own time to show us more places around the city which really showed how enthusiastic he was about everything. So that made us also more thrilled about Prague.

Great tour to not only learn about street art around Prague but to also learn about some really neat neighborhoods outside of the old city. If you’re in Prague for several days, would recommend doing this tour the first or second day as you’ll learn about some great places to go back to and spend more time. Tom was a great guide, providing a lot of information on what it’s like to live as a local in Prague today.
