All tours run rain or shine. The rainiest month is June, but usually it is just drizzling. Please, always check the weather and dress accordingly. Bad weather is not a valid reason to cancel a tour. In case a tour is jeopardised or impossible due to force majeure, weather events, political disturbances or strikes, tours can be cancelled if we believe it is necessary.

Not necessarily. We will visit the sites in the most efficient and logical order, customised to take into account your hotel’s location, where you’d like the tour to finish, and the best timing to avoid crowds.

9. Where will be the pick-up?

We will pick you up at your hotel if not agreed otherwise.

10. What is the weather in Prague?

Summers in Prague are normally very agreeable with blue skies and sunshine and an average temperature of 17°C (62°F), with an average high of 24°C (75°F) and an average low of 12°C (53°F); therefore, even in summer the nights are cool and it is necessary to pack a jacket. Generally, there could be a little rain in Prague, but it can rain quite heavily during spring and summer.

Spring and autumn are the best times to visit Prague so, we recommend going in May or June, when the temperatures are mild and the days are longer.

During the winter the average lows are -3°C (26°F) and the average highs are 1°C (33°F) or 2°C (35°F). These months are darker, but Prague is breath-taking when it snows. Do not forget to pack some warm clothes and winter shoes.

Looking forward to meeting you at our tour.

Děkujeme (Thank you),

Petra and Michal
