The highlight of this two-hour tour of Prague by night is the performance by Krizik's Music Fountain. The spectacular combination of water jets, music and colored laser lights is simply amazing!
A massive system of waterworks spouts delicate streams of colorfully lit water in a spectacular light show, choreographed to a soundtrack of classical and popular music.
Children and adults alike love the fantastic performance of water and light, accompanied by the music of Smetana, Dvorak, Mercury, Vangelis and Lloyd Webber.
Please note: from November to March the Krizik's Music Fountain is closed, so this will be an evening tour including more sights of Prague at night only.
The only reason I gave this tour one star was I wanted to warn fellow travelers away from this tour. Prior to booking ask Viator if this tour is through Grey Line and, if so, do NOT book! The tour was supposed to be Prague by Night but since sunset wasn't until after 8 PM that night the tour was still conducted during the daytime albeit at twilight so the buildings weren't lit up. The tour is a 2 hour tour and when I asked the guide about seeing the buildings lit at night his response was did you really expect that we would wait until dark? The guide Edward was rude and arrogant and since he only had 4 people on the tour was rushing through all his commentary. This tour was an absolute waste as one can see the areas lit on their own as they didn't take you to any area other than the Old Town Square and Castle.

Nice tour. Would be nice to see a little more of the city itself rather than just mainly the fountain show, which was very nice though, I would just make the tour itself a little longer.

Great tour, lets you explore the city in a different way.

Our driver was a maniac with the driving. Scared many of us enough that some of them asked him to please slow down. Found out he was on a time constraint and was upset with picking up others 2 times because they did not appear to be where they should have been. Probably not his fault entirely but none the less it was a scary ride.

Lovely evening tour culminating in visit to a musical light fountain display - superb! Tour guide again was very helpful and informative. Highly recommend

I would definitely pass on this trip with this company. I thought it was a tour of Prague at night and it was. But in the middle they dropped me off at an old run down fair grounds park from the end of the 1800's I think they said for a 40 minute Disney show that looked like kindergarten children were the star of the show. The water fountains in the show were dilapidated and molded. The entire show was very dismal and depressing and the costumes and dancing weren't professional or enjoyable to watch. Maybe if you had very small children you could sell them on this tour. If they are over the age of 7 or 8 they would probably rather play on their ipads. I would avoid this tour if you are trying to see Prague sights lit up at night.

Horrible. The woman tour guide was hostile and had terrible body odor. The tour guide coming back was bored and got off before we got back to our hotel. All in all a terrible tour!

Very nice tour, worth the cost.
Review by: Maria Elena T, October 2017
I don't buy a Disney Show this was wrong tour and the guy told me that the tour I selected I'm not not wrong I live in Miami and I go to Disney every year how come I'm going to Praha to see a Disney Show was very sad for us because I left my little nice in Miami.
Review by: Kathy, September 2017
This really should not be a tour. 45 minute water fountain show could've been done in 15 minutes. In addition driving through Prague at night is useless as there is nothing to see. To top it all off our tour director had a terrible cold and coughed and sneezed her way through her presentation. She was speaking as fast as possible as if to get it over with.
Review by: Alan B, September 2017
This was a very informative and relaxing tour. Our tour guide had a mixed language group Russian, Czech, English but managed to relate all the information to everyone clearly and timely. Although many things could not be viewed very well at night, the city on the whole presented itself in all its magnificence. Good tour and a big plus for this tour was being picked and dropped off at our hotel.

ZERO STARS!! WORST TOUR EVER.Driver drove like grand theft auto to terrible fountain,spent 40 min.Then again like a madman, never stopped to show us the sites, didn't even slow down.Too early to see anything lit up.No history from guide.Tip demanded@end
Review by: Marte Å, July 2017
Save your Money_br/_ difficult to reach company before tour to agree on pick up Place. Needed to get the hotell to call them, as they did not answer email_br/_ It was a drive through town in a small minivan.. no stop for photos before the fountain. _br/_ one hour fountain show.. a litlle chilly. _br/_ During summer, too Bright outside to see the light. Perhaps this is better during Winter_br/_ Ended at the prague Castle - guide was nice enough to take a photo of us. Driver drove us back to hotel_br/_ Ok trip. Waste of time

The sun was shining !! So it was not at all a by night experience
Review by: Holly G, June 2017
Absolutely horrible. One of the worst tours we have taken anywhere in the world. Our driver packed 7 of us in a very small van, drove like a madman, took us to a concert that was a rip off of a Disney show for kids there were all adults in our party, and then drove us thru the streets of Prague while he mumbled some commentary, argued with the driver, and we could not understand a word he said or see out of the van to note any sights. This one is a definite NO!

It was only two of us, but it was really worth it.
Review by: Robin S, May 2017
This tour was not worth it. The tour ended up being only 5 people and I was the only English speaking. There were two tour guides and the one spoke French most of the time then would tell me a sentence in English. All it did was take you to a fountain show which was bad and then drop you off.
Review by: Thomas F, April 2017
Stay away from this tour. You will not get to see any of the major attractions lit up at night. It is impossible to look up, in the 6 passenger mini van they took us on. Even if the attraction is on your side of the van half the time it isn't you physically cannot look up to see it. The entire tour is inside the mini van. You are never allowed out to look or take pictures. Save your money and take a cab/walk to one of the major bridges, and take in the sights from there!
Review by: Davidevakwok, April 2017
Boring guide and small van. The van smelled bad and can't hear the guide clearly when sitting at the back row due to the noice generated from the cobblestone road. Fountain was boring too.
Review by: Thiago T, January 2017
Nobody in the tour, just me and my family. Very fast tour (1h15) and almost without stops for pictures.
Review by: Tadashi K, January 2017
Horrouble tour, I don and #39;t recommend.
Review by: Jecha, December 2016
good tour, you get to have a quick view of the 4 sides of the city, but not recommended in winter.
Review by: classygyal, November 2016
I got to see the city by night with half of the buildings cut off because you couldn't see from the private coach. Skip this and just jump on the Tram 22 and see it for yourself for a fraction of the price. The tour guide was pleasant though.
Review by: juner v, October 2016
I was vert dissatified of this tour. I had 2 groups on the trip and they were also disappointed._br/_ -The tour guide was very rude to most of us and also was rude to me when we spoke to him_br/_ -Majority of the tour was at a water light show which is not really a tour of prague_br/_ - the tour guide would tour us to random sites that a tourist would not care about_br/_ -He would show us random buildings like a pool area or a library which were not the major sites of prague but common areas that a tourist did not care about_br/_ -The main concern is the rudeness and the random tour of sites that showed no interest it appeared as if they were just driving pointing sites that of no point of interest_br/_ -everyone on the tour questioned the legitmacy of the tour but it was the tour_br/_ -I personally left after the visit of the water show that took most of the tour, because after that water tour and really the drive to there which had no tourst spots, he stated the tour was almost over and we were very disappointed._br/_ I had my last night in Prague and this tour ruined my trip_br/_ -the trip began at the meeting spot whihc was difficult to locate and when we started the was no real point of interest shown, then it was the water show which we all did not expect, then it was done_br/_ -the driver was great but the tour was very rude and condescending, he talked to us like he hated his job and just wanted to get the tour over with_br/_ -I would never recommend this tour at out. This ruined my experience in Prague. I traveled from 13 hour by plane to have a bad experienced in Prague_br/_ -Seemed life a scam _br/_ -there is reason not many booked with this tour guide
Review by: Rachael S, October 2016
Not a bad tour when we eventually got in contact, but couldn and #39;t get hold of and was chasing round after them as they didn and #39;t confirm whether they were picking us up from hotel or picking up point therefore we went to picking up point on time and theyd already left so we had to rebook for the next day.

Not work the time. Just saw a water fountain show. Nice experience for 10 minutes but not 30-40 minutes.
Review by: teresitapedraza, August 2016
Awful. We were taken and left at a water park in which the only attraction was to see a fountain change colors as the water danced to the music. After that we were driven 15 minutes through the city and taken back to our hotel.
Review by: mira.intwala1901, August 2016
Prague by night becomes more interesting than it is in day............. the city awakens and doesnt let any sleep till late midnight.............. the music .. clattering of people....... the rising performances.... beautiful colorful lights ................ cant let you ever forget the city.........
Review by: Wendy F, July 2016
Musicians were talented however, the music was rather loud so made conversation a bit difficult. Also the 'musical challenge' was too contrived. Food was ok. _br/_ Great views of the city by night.
Review by: Richard H, May 2016
Awful and to be avoided. Primarily because the tour is basically a bus commute to a dreadful relic of what felt like a communist era fountain and #34;show. and #34; This was a waste of time and money, unless you enjoy some insight into what passed for and #34;entertainment and #34; in communist Czechoslovakia.
Review by: Seif B, April 2016
Excellent and complete tour. Abig thank youto Eva who answered all my questions and was very friendly. I was the only person in the tour and it was not cancelled and I'm very thankful :-
Review by: Ajsa, April 2016
This is a perfect orientation to the city for the first time visitors. It takes you around the city's most important attractions in a coach/van etc depending upon the group size. My uncle and I were the only two people on this tour probably because it was off season.. The guide Eva Eve is a very well informed and friendly person.. She knows the history and the other details about the city.. The best part was the walking tour around the castle district.. The St. vitus Cathedral appeared magical lit up by flood lights..
Review by: Mari, February 2016
Part by bus and part walking tour, this took you to many of the highlights of the city, and explained the layout of the four quarters of the city. The bus made it difficult to see some things, as they were either too far away or we were going to fast to get a clear look at them this also made getting pictures from the bus impossible. But seeing the city at night was beautiful and gave a good orientation of where everything was in Prague. Would recommend for a first night in the city to get your bearings.
Review by: Eesha G, November 2015
It was our first day when we did this tour but other than a musical fountain there was nothing that we could see. The tour didn't stop at any of the nice locations like Charles bridge or town square which we had to go again the next day. It would be better if we get 5-10 minutes stop at each locations as well.
Review by: ROB, November 2015
Boring. The water show was outdated. The tour itself was not worth the time. Save your money, do the full day tour, and then venture out on your own at night. You will see more and have better photo ops.
Review by: Frik van Rensburg, October 2015
We enjoyed the drive though the city very much and the musical fountain was spectacular!!
Review by: philippe z, October 2015
great tour
Review by: Jacky W, October 2015
A bit disappointing. The night tour was good but we were the only people on the bus and the guide did not appear to be able to adapt her approach from dealing with larger groups. It was good to see the city at night but the musical fountain show appeared somewhat dated and there was not enough to hold your interest for the 40 mins it lasted.
Review by: Sagnik K D, August 2015
Great introductory tour of Prague. Take this tour early on so as to know what sites to hit up on foot. The tour only stops at a fountain show which was great! The fountain is within an older exhibition compound from the early 20th century - beautiful to see some of them. Guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. Would highly recommend!
Review by: Patricia S, June 2015
Crazy driving on bumpy roads....glad it was over on time.
Review by: Jack R, June 2015
would be better if done later when darker
Review by: Ian C, May 2015
Not a bad way to see the outskirts of the city - but mainly revolved around the fountain display 45mins....which was very nice....but apart from that it was a quick fly past the castle area and that was about it. The 'guide' seemed pretty disinterested TBH and wasn't very engaging with the people on the bus. I wouldn't exactly call it 'Prague by Night'!
Review by: Katherine A C, April 2015
Guide could not be heard over the noise of the cobblestones and was often speaking to other tourists in another language causing us not to hear about various interesting sights. The bus ride was WAY to fast on such narrow streets.
Review by: Katherine S, March 2015
Amazing tour at night to see it all when there are no tourists blocking the view. Saw it all and could make decisions on what to see the next day in daylight!
Review by: Helen B, March 2015
Good knowledgable guide, the bus driver went too quickly based some locations so hard to take photos. The walking tour back to the old town was enjoyable recommend rbe afternoon tour as you get so to some of the buildings and bridges lit up on the return journey (in January at least)
Review by: Alice, December 2014
Lovely excursion. We were able to go places it would be difficult to go during the day. Water fountain/concert very enjoyable.
