Great tour
This was a great tour and really good value for money. It was very informative and it takes you to parts of the city that you may not otherwise have gone to. Our tour guide Phil was brilliant, very knowledgable and able to answer any questions we had. Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone with an interest in the subject

Very Interesting
Super interesting tour and worthwhile for anyone who wants to understand more about more recent history. Did the tour on Remembrance Sunday which felt even more poignant.

Late cancellation due to illness
Tour was cancelled 25 mins before beginning by phone, due to the guide being taken ill . I hope he or she is ok after such a sudden illness.

Intriguing tour in the city's turbulent past
I attended the WWII and Communism Tour. I appreciated very much the explanation by the local guide, Adam. His broad knowledge allowed him to explain very complex concepts in a few simple words. Moreover, his eloquence was so powerful to convey the drama and the emotions of those times. It has been for sure a full immersion in the tumultuous past of this great city. Thanks, Adam and thanks to Discover Prague for such an awesome tour! Last remark, a bit disappointed regarding the beer tour because you need at least two persons to be able to book it.
Response from the operator: Thanks for taking the time to leave us a great review! We are happy to hear that you had a great time on your tour with Adam, he is very knowledgeable and as a company, we pride ourselves on making sure that everything runs smoothly and people have a good time. We wish you all the best! Kind regards, Discover Prague Tours

Great Experience, very knowledgeable Guide, highly recommended!
Our Tour Guide, Zach, was truly awesome on this World War II & Communism Tour. He shared his immense and profound knowledge of historical events in a way that not only informed us about many facts but also related them to us in a manner that permitted us to intuitively understand them. I left not only knowing what had happened but also why, who had done it for what reason and what people thought about it. In particular, I have to say that as a German I find that his explanation of how the Nazi Party rose to power in Germany was much more sensical and comprehensible than any that I've ever heard in my school. I absolutely loved Prague even before I participated at this tour, but afterwards I felt like I had barely begun to scratch the surface of this wonderful city's very soul and that it permitted me to not only love but admire it. Booking this tour as an extracurricular activity together with a classmate was my absolutely best decision on the entire school trip. It has played an important role in my decision to, one day, definitely come back to this city. I am definitely recommending this tour and our genius Tour Guide to anyone and everyone!
Response from the operator: Thanks for a great review! We are happy to hear that you had a great time with Zac, he has lived in Prague for a long time and loves to share the knowledge he acquired with people on his tours. We wish you all the best and hope to see you in the future! Kind regards, Discover Prague Tours

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
World War 2 and Communism Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Prague.
How much does World War 2 and Communism Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $29 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 World War 2 and Communism Tour take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 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 World War 2 and Communism Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 43 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 World War 2 and Communism Tour?
+
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 World War 2 and Communism Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book World War 2 and Communism Tour?
+
Around 15 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 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does World War 2 and Communism Tour 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, 3-hour Complete Prague Bike Tour. 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.
