The Prague "Castle" is actually a complex with several different buildings you can visit. It is worth paying the ticket and doing the visit to enter the palace, the cathedral, the tiny church and the golden street. It's like a tourist must, so it's pretty full, with some queues and the feeling of being rushed inside the buildings as you just get carried by the crowd. The 20 minute introduction of the tour is quite interesting to understand the history and context of the complex and what you are about to see. But navigating the area and the entrance to all the buildings can get tricky and it is easy to get turned around. It would be useful to get indications on the tour about the entrances beyond a abstract and not to scale map they give out.

The tickets were easy to book online and instructions on where to go/meet with the booking were good. The introductory talk was excellent, very informative and our guide had good knowledge. We would have given 5 stars but found that St Vitus Cathedral had very little information unless you purchased an audio guide. We felt that some general description on boards in Czech and English would have helped confirm what we were looking at. Similarly in St George's there were some boards but they were all in Czech. It was difficult to use a translator on a phone because of low signal, narrow space and very low lighting conditions.

We booked this tour on our last in Prague and were so happy we did! Steve was our guide and was fabulous. He knew his stuff, had great and fun anecdotes, and a good sense of humor to boot. We had seriously considered skipping the Castle, dreading the walk up the hill and crowds; but then thought, "we're here, we need to see it". We opted for the exterior/interior skip the line guided tour, which included the tram ride up the hill. Very much worth it! The walk down and across the other bridge was easier and the views of the river and Charles Bridge were beautiful. Highly recommend this tour.

Skip the ticketing queues and dive straight into the history of Prague Castle, the largest coherent castle complex in the world, perfect for history enthusiasts.

Explore the castle complex with a 2-day ticket, including St. Vitus Cathedral—an exquisite Gothic marvel with high pillars, arches, and intricate details.

With its vaulted interiors and graceful arcades, the Old Royal Palace stands out, while the Golden Lane enchants with its quaint, colorful houses.

Enhance your visit with an optional audio guide in multiple languages for deep insights and a convenient minibus transfer from Old Town to Prague Castle.

Did you know? The St. Vitus Cathedral within the castle took nearly 600 years to complete, from 1344 to 1929.

We bought the tickets online. We approached the guides with the blue and white umbrellas on the castle grounds to find out the starting point of the tour. And it was actually these guides who described the route to us and provided us with a small map. The view of the city from the castle grounds is magnificent. There is a lot of construction going on at the castle itself and not everything was as accessible as expected. All in all, however, it was very worthwhile.

The castle has four sections to visit, one more majestic and fascinating than the other. The most interesting part remains the St. Vitus Cathedral with wonderful mosaics inside. Also at 12 noon there is the changing of the guard with a small ceremony that I highly recommend. Finally, there are viewpoints from which to admire Prague, its landscape and colors.

It is really worth it to visit the whole castle complex. The guides who welcome you for the short 20 min introduction as well as explaining everything about how it is divided, give you tips on how to visit the castle. It was all very impressive to see, well worth it

Easy to access, meet with guides prior to the casrle where they explained what to expect at each destination. You also have the option of buying the audio guide for a few extra dollars, well worth it. Take the 237 steps up the cathedral for a Birdseye view of Old Town Prague.
