Why do a Communism tour?

You understand a defining part of Prague's 20th-century history. The museum tour gives you objects, propaganda and context; the eyewitness tour adds personal stories and memory. Doing both (on different days) gives you the full picture.

What to expect

1Museum tour: meet your guide; walk to sites linked to the Communist period; visit the Communism Museum (admission included).
2Eyewitness tour: meet your private guide; walk to key sites (Wenceslas Square, memorials, places of protest); hear first-hand stories and history.
3Duration: typically a few hours each. Content can be intense; both guides handle the subject with care.
