4.00Tour guide was great and supremely knowledgeable! Very thankful for the education and insight into Czech WWII involvement. That said, be aware that there’s a lot of talking and history lesson on the tour and not as much “touring” around. Still great but set expectations, there’s sitting and listening that was half of the tour.
Excellent tour

3.00Quite interesting but not always clear as to where we were or what we were seeing. Also, at the end, our guide disappeared without checking with us to see if we needed assistance as to where we were going next.
Very fun and interesting tour

5.00It was great. Hanna was very informative and had lots of information and family stories about the Nazi occupation and then the soviets after. She was very nice and it was nice to take a break and have a pop halfway through the tour. Also nice to take the tram instead of walking the whole way (I’m very tired!). Highly recommend.
Interesting Tour!

5.00It was very interesting. The crowd size was small but a good amount since we sit around a table while the guide explains what led up to Operation Anthropoid and all of the players involved. The atmosphere was appropriately subdued since it was a terrible time in the world. The length of time was appropriate because it covered the entire operation. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and appropriately still affected by this event in WWII. It was worth every penny that we paid. Would recommend it to anyone interested in WWII history.
Excellent and memorable!

5.00So informative and the stories helped make the information stick. Amazing collection of historical memorabilia that you actually get to hold in your hands. Highly recommend this tour! Felt personal and important to the guide that we understand and that took the experience to a higher level. Thank you!
Moving tribute to the Czech soldier heroes.
