Overview

We spend 2 hours walking around Prague, seeing iconic places and learning about recent history of former Czechoslovakia during the Cold War period. Then we enjoy 30-mins break for a lunch or Kofola drink in an authentic working-class canteen from 70s (optional). Finally we visit a Nuclear bunker, which evoke the paranoia of the 1950's. The bunker admission fee 250CZK (10 EUR) is included in the price. We like dialogue, so the group size is limited up to 15 people. Not only will you discover how the average Czech lived, worked and played under communism, but you will also hear stories and anecdotes from your local guide, who will bring the old days back to life!  You will also see historical photos of the events, people, buildings and statues, many of them now destroyed.

Thanks to Yuda, our guide, a fascinating tour.

Fascinating and thought provoking glimpse into all that communism has to offer. Look, learn and let’s not allow Europe to slip backwards.

Interesting tour through Soviet past of Prague

Published on Jan, 2025

We were lucky to be in a group of 4 people with our knowledgeable and interesting tour guide Clara. We had been wandering the streets of Prague for a few days already but to hear the history and be shown specific aspects really opened our eyes and enhanced our trip. We loved the route taken as it showed a slightly different side to what most tourists would see as we were in side streets and cuts that we wouldn't have taken as well as seeing the shopping arcades, canteen and Wenceslas Square. We loved the stories shared and really felt like we could feel the history around us. The bunker was fun and interesting to experience.

Published on Jan, 2025

Great guide, very informative and friendly we learned plenty and enjoyed our tour. Thanks to Clara………………………………………great

This is an ace tour!

Published on Dec, 2024

This was a brilliant tour. Carla, our guide, was super knowledgeable and we got the social context as well as her historical perspective. It was illuminating! We were fortunate to have fellow tour group members who had also grown up behind the Iron Counter and that was an added bonus. The conversation was excellent - really recommend this tour. The bunker was great, as previous visitors have commented, but Carla brought something extra.

Communism Prague with Bunker Visit

Published on Dec, 2024

A great addition or add on to a city tour around Prague, very interesting to really learn about the local communism history in depth. The guide was extremely knowledgable. The highlight was a bunker visit at the bottom of a hotel in a well known location, you wouldn’t suspect was there. A very worthwhile tour if you want Prague old and new town history.
