“Prague Castle was a great day out, definitely worth seeing, very informative talk before a self guided walk around the castle. Good value for money. It was a shame that the Old Royal Palace was closed though which was due to preparing for an exhibition of the jewels. The tour company did, however, offer a reduction on a visit to a monastery.”
