1. What is the best time of year to take day trips in Prague?

Spring (April to June) and early autumn (September to October) are ideal mild weather, fewer crowds, and beautiful countryside. Summer works too but expect more tourists at popular sites. Winter tours like the vintage car ride offer heated seats and blankets, making Prague a year-round destination.

2. Are these Prague tours suitable for families with children?

The street food tour and vintage car tour to Karlštejn are great for families. For the e-scooter tour, riders must be at least 15 years old. The Kingdom Come tour is a full 9-hour day with significant walking, so it's best suited for older kids and teenagers with an interest in history or gaming.

3. Do I need to speak Czech to enjoy these tours?

Not at all. All four tours are conducted in English by fluent local guides. Prague is very tourist-friendly and English is widely spoken in restaurants, shops, and public transport. Your guide will handle any communication at food stops, castles, or restaurants along the way.

The vintage car tour is the most comfortable since you're seated most of the time, though the castle walk is uphill. The e-scooter requires standing and balance throughout. The Kingdom Come tour involves considerable walking on uneven terrain. Contact the operator through GetYourGuide with specific concerns before booking..
