Visitor tips
High season vs low season: With clear skies, and sunny weather, the summer months from June to August are a great time to take a Prague sightseeing cruise. But being the peak season, this time sees more tourists. The off-peak season months of April to May and September to October mostly offer pleasant weather, with the added advantage of lower tourist numbers.
Weekends vs weekdays: Weekdays are better for going on a sightseeing cruise than weekends or public holidays, which see more crowds.
Best time of the day: Choosing between a daytime cruise and a night cruise depends on your preferences. Cruises during the day offer lovely views of the city, while dinner cruises allow you to see the city’s skyline illuminated at night.

The ability to buy tickets online makes the whole process quick and easy. Once we arrived, our guide—who also spoke Italian—gave us some introductory information: a bit of Czech history, notable figures, and an overview of the different areas included in the ticket, as well as the opening hours of various sites (St. Vitus Cathedral) and the schedules for some very atmospheric traditional events, such as the changing of the guard. All of these aspects made the ticket well worth the price. Don’t miss the panoramic views from the terrace.

IT'S WORTH IT!!! We chose a table near the window and everything was truly magical. The cost is a little high, but we were very happy. The food was obviously a little so-so, but it's worth it...
