The cruise was great, just hoped for better explanation from the captain. They serve you drinks while you are onboard, it's not free though. Other than that it was a great experience

I liked the cruise tour, but I didn't like that they didn't tell us where to plug in the headphones so we could hear the commentary in Spanish

We took the recommendation from a recent review to choose the 9pm cruise, and we're very glad we did. Seeing the sights as dark fell was very special. Prague is very beautiful at night. I really like that the boat was not crowded, even though the trip was full, and drinks were served swiftly. Great service and a lovely romantic experience.

A wonderful experience—punctual, clean. Beautiful view. We started at 9 p.m., when there was still a little light left, and gradually saw all the lights come on—a truly beautiful experience. I recommend this time slot; the changing colors of the sky were stunning.

A moment of relaxation, a breathtaking view of Prague. A must-do! A wonderful way to see the other side of the statues. An added bonus: the classical music, which adds the emotion of a bygone era to the setting.

What a wonderful experience!! It’s definitely worth it—the view of the city from the river is stunning. Around this time of year, toward the end of May, I recommend taking the tour at 9 p.m., when the sun sets and it’s spectacular.

Well... Seeing Charles Bridge from below, passing under its imposing Gothic arches, is an experience you don’t get when walking across it. The view of Prague Castle towering over the hill, reflected in the river’s waters, looks like something straight out of a fairy tale. It’s a paradise for photography lovers: no crowds. I loved this cruise. I found the narration explaining the historical monuments as we passed them very helpful.
