Best part of my trip!

5.00I had visited Prague a few times before this trip. I knew it was a beautiful city. I wanted to get a different view. This tour was a perfect choice for me. It was active, in a different way than walking, but it wasn’t a difficult kayak trip. Vaclav was an excellent guide. He was patient with the skill levels in the group and catered his commentary to each person’s interest. As a solo traveller, it was a plus to walk away from the tour with a few pictures that were not the typical selfie headshots!! Frantisek was fantastic to communicate with, regarding details of the trip, before and after. I would do this tour again!

5.00We’ve been to the amazing city of Prague before and decided that we should see the city from a different perspective this time - via kayaking. Our guide Frank was so accommodating, knowledgeable about the history and culture of Czech Republic and Prague. The tour was easy, informative and enjoyable. We would recommend this to anyone.
Highly recommend

A unique view of Prague

5.00This was the most unique way to see Prague. Meeting on the launch ramp was simple. The kayaks are the perfect type to feel safe and are efficient to paddle. We were in safe hands when crossing the river. We learned loads about Prague. It was a hot day and the breeze on the water was so refreshing. We would recommend this tour company wholeheartedly .

5.00This was my second visit to Prague so I decided to take in the city from a different vantage point this time — and it did not disappoint! Vaclav, my kayaking tour guide, was simply outstanding. He was clear and prompt in our communications in the days leading up to the tour, punctual and ready with our kayaks and gear at the meeting spot, and knowledgable and friendly on the tour itself. Not only did Vaclav provide information about the sights but he prioritized safety at all times, ensuring I didn’t stray into the center of the river too much. We also chatted a bit about the history and economy of Czechia as well as his visit to my part of the world, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The trip itself was about 5 km in total, first downstream to the locks near Štavnice island, then back upstream to Charles bridge. We went under the 666-year old Charles bridge as well as remnants of an even older bridge. Then we crossed to the other bank and went up a canal known as Little Venice. This part of the trip was a bit more challenging, which I relished. At the end of the canal we saw the last (non-functional) water mill in Prague, before returning back to our starting spot. He was kind enough to take several photos of me on the water and sent them to me promptly after the tour finished. Being the off-season and 40 F / 5 C weather, I was the only customer, which was nice. I’m positive, though, that the experience would’ve been just as enjoyable with a few more people. Vaclav mentioned that they typically don’t take more than 4-6 people per guide, depending on the customers’ prior experience with kayaking. I highly recommend this tour, whether you’re a first-time or repeat visitor to Prague!
Unique and safe way to see Prague without crowds

5.00We had a wonderful experience on the kayak trip through Prague. The guide was very knowledgeable about kayaking and the city history. Some of the best photos from our Prague trip were taken by our guide as we kayaked under the Charles Bridge. We stayed dry and the kayaks felt safe. This is a great way to see the city from a different perspective.
