The tour guide we had is a guy called Thomas who was excellent, very knowledgable, easy going and willing to answer any questions. The tour walks you through a brief history of Prague from the perspective of local people and the graffiti art that kicked off after the revolution. This tour is about real people doing real things and almost feels kinda personal. I highly recommend, one of my highlights of Europe!

Description
We’ll take you beyond the typical tourist destinations to the heart and soul of the city, and explain how Czech society and culture have changed since the fall of communism.
The Velvet Revolution not only gave the Czech Republic political freedom, but also cultural freedom. Our guides will introduce you to authentic local culture that has flourished outside the historic centre, including music, street art, graffiti, and contemporary galleries.
Join us and discover Prague’s social and cultural hotspots. We can share tips on what to do, where to buy cool stuff, and how to enjoy the city like a local young person. We're young artists who've grown up in Prague and live the local culture every day!
