5.00I loved this walk, it is in the most adored area in the city and at night it is the perfect time to see it empty and also discover the beauty of Prague at night. Our guide was Casey and he turned out to be a fantastic story teller, who was able to add the mystery in each stop we had during this walk. I would recommend it, if you have the time and are fascinated by the alternative.
