Our city tour of Prague was the highlight of our two week trip. Jana, our guide, was so knowledgeable about the city and we loved hearing all the stories and history that make Prague so special. She took us to all the major sites that we wanted to see and included special things that we never would have noticed on our own. After our tour, she sent an email with a recap of everything we saw and gave us dining suggestions and tips on how to spend our next day in Prague. I highly recommend the 5 hour tour to get a good overview of the city.
