Having true scholars organize and conduct such tours is a great concept which really added a special depth and created a uniquely special learning experience to these tours. Also, being private tours, our sights and discussions were not limited to just the actual tour objectives but we could digress into other subjects and sights that were of interests to us. I highly recommend Insight Cities tours and I believe they offer these unique tours in many cities besides Prague and Budapest.

See What Our Guests are Saying
The best way to see and get immersed in the culture and history of this city is with a local historical guide that lives here.
After engaging Insight Cities for unforgettable tours in Vienna and Prague, we ended our trip with 2 more from the company. After 5 tours, we can easily recommend this company. The guides are superb. Hope to see them in more cities in the future.
