Very interesting!
irynab815, October 2026
I really liked the tour! It was interesting, atmospheric, and not boring at all. Thank you so much to Scott, a very pleasant, charismatic person who really knows how to tell interesting stories. It felt like listening to real stories with soul. Learned a lot of interesting things and looked at Prague in a new way. Thanks to Scott for the excellent tour! Definitely recommend!

Scott is amazing!! Must do!
alexkathryn2017, October 2026
We loved our experience. The walking tour takes you all around Old Town where you hear numerous ghostly tales. Our tour guide, Scott, was absolutely incredible. He was so charismatic and such a good storyteller. Everyone was off their phones and transfixed to him, which is so rare these days and a sign of how good the tour was! He also sprinkled in some travel tips for Prague too if we wanted to return to a haunted spot, which made us bummed we didn't meet him earlier in the trip! The stories are great, and my husband and I truly enjoyed our tour. Scott is the best!! Definitely recommend!

Interesting for discovering aspects of Prague that guidebooks don't always mention, to return to the places on your own with more awareness.

Fun way to learn more about the city
Sjoukje_B, August 2026
What a fun way to get to know the city! Lara did a wonderful job. It was raining but that somehow helped with the atmosphere.
Our teens (17 and 15) were also captivated by the stories, they enjoyed it a lot more than the “normal” tour we did in another city a week ago.
