The view of the Castle is excellent. The one of the Tower leaves a little to be desired. It does not have more attractive elements than the good aerial views of Prague, but it lacks narrative, elements of attraction to the visit.

It was pretty easy to maneuver, my husband and I prefer a quick informational exchange and then to be on our own so that helped. It's good to know you get access only once to the particular attractions, but you get 2 days to accomplish all the attractions. I didn't realize this so keep it in mind :)Cassandra

I enjoyed the beginning learning about the history of Prague. It added meaning to the experience and made it more special. To notice details I wouldn't have seen ans grow knowledge, I wouldn't otherwise have

The guide we had for the astronomical clock tour was great. He explained lots of things, including the history of the country, details about the square and, of course, the clock, which isn't really a clock at all. We visited the tower on our own, but didn't need a guide. The castle guide explained how the tour would work, and gave us a few details about the buildings. But after that, we were on our own. The pass was valid for 2 days, which may be interesting for those short on time.

I was hesitant of not buying tickets directly from the ticket office, as the guide was only to accompany to the venue, BUT during the shortest walk our amazing guide Linda provided quite a lot of information on Prague, old town, Jewish quarter and the clock itself, and she delivered stories so nicely! Thanks a lot for the wonderful tour! The tower was worth visiting, as the views from top are breathtaking. We also purchased extra lift tickets from inside not to walk up the stairs as we were short of time, the lift was very fast, not sure for walking though, we didn't see the stairs.
A timeless journey exploring Prague's Astronomical Clock Tower
Begin your journey with an assistant familiarizing you with the rich history of the Old Town Hall and the Astronomical Clock Tower during a 20-minute introduction. Following this, skip the long queues and enter the majestic Clock Tower. Admire the clock’s allegorical figures symbolizing humanity's vices and virtues, including a skeleton for Death and an angel for purity. It also features figures representing vanity, greed, and lust. Notice the astronomical dial displaying the Sun and Moon’s positions, along with stars and zodiac signs. Every hour, two small trapdoors open, and the twelve apostles emerge, each telling their own story. From the top of the tower, the twisty streets and charming squares of Prague unfold before you. Enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of Old Town Square and the Tyn Cathedral.
