A very pleasant afternoon
The tour is nice and long. You get to learn a lot about the history of the hospital and mental health. Allen was a great guide, he is very helpful and has got a lot of insights about anything youd like to talk to him. Would totally recommend trying this tour, Allen is great!
Response from the operator: We’re delighted to hear you had a great experience, and we hope to welcome you back soon!

A lovely afternoon out
I’m so glad I decided to do the tour, it was a really interesting experience and such a lovely day out. Our tour guide was Allen and he was so knowledgeable about different subjects - not only psychiatry and the history of the hospital, but also facts about Prague and funny anecdotes, and he was just great to chat to. There is a lot of walking involved so perfect for people who like to stroll around, and ideally you’d book it for when the weather is nice. Definitely something different to do and I found it much more interesting than typical touristy tours in city centre. 100% recommend!
Response from the operator: Thanks for sharing your experience with us!

Definitely well worth it!
Honestly we cannot recommend this tour enough. From start to finish, Allen was an endless supply of knowledge and made the tour not only fascinating but one that we will remember for years to come. Thank you again Allen!
Response from the operator: We're thrilled you enjoyed the tour!

Very interesting and fun!
It was so much fun and very informative! Our guide was Allen and he had a lot of knowledge about the place. We got lost trying to find te meeting place and luckily Allen came to save us haha. I would definitely recommend going on this tour! It's very different from your standard tours in Prague. It is a lot of walking and standing so be mindful of that! And at the end of the tour we had a lovely brownie and lemonade at the cafeteria. Allen even gave us some restaurant recommendations!
Response from the operator: Thank you for the review, we are glad you enjoyed it!

Why this scores 73
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Psychiatric Hospital & Abandoned Cemetery: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Prague.
How much does Psychiatric Hospital & Abandoned Cemetery cost?
+
Prices start at $32 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Prague usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Psychiatric Hospital & Abandoned Cemetery take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Prague is not rushed.
Is Psychiatric Hospital & Abandoned Cemetery worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 53 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Prague, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Psychiatric Hospital & Abandoned Cemetery?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Psychiatric Hospital & Abandoned Cemetery suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Psychiatric Hospital & Abandoned Cemetery?
+
Around 19 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Prague can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Prague and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Psychiatric Hospital & Abandoned Cemetery start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Prague within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Prague?
+
On Outty we rank every Prague experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Best Reviews: Bohemian & Saxon Switzerland Day Trip From Prague, Bohemian & Saxon Switzerland From Prague-Travelers' Choice 2026, Prague Historic Pub Tour with Drinks Included. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Prague?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Prague?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Psychiatric Hospital & Abandoned Cemetery?
+

Where is the meeting point for Psychiatric Hospital & Abandoned Cemetery?

What languages is Psychiatric Hospital & Abandoned Cemetery offered in?
+

+
