Your video is an unending source of motivation! - "Every setback carries a precious lesson."

I'll be coming to Prague from Scotlandfor the first time next Sunday and leaving Thursday. I'll be solo travelling there, so it's a big step and a little daunting. But your videos are giving me lots of information. I'm used to euros and was able to treat them like British pounds. Crowns will be different. I won't have to think about breakfast because I'll get that from my hotel. I love photography so will take my tripod and hope I can get some great nighttime photos of Prague.

Just spent three days in Prague and we took the Old Town/Jewish Quarter and Prague Castle Free Walking Tours, both with Katarina. She was fantastic and we really enjoyed her knowledge, insights and sense of humor on both tours. Your channel has been instrumental in ensuring that our trip to Praha has been a great one. Keep up the great work and thank you.

OMGosh at 6:29 I laughed so much, you are funny, that's one reason why I love you and your channel. Thank you for another informative vlog, see ya next time. BBBYYYEEE!!

❤ great video as always, I don’t think any other city has a similar tourist vlog like yours. I am glad you kept the Czech crown as currency as all the places we have visited who have taken the Euro has complained how much their cost of living has risen, which has had a knock on effect to everything🤨. You and your team should be recognised by your Government for the work, dedication and professionalism you bring to showcase Prague and Czech👍

I visited Prague last week for work . Still got to look around in the late afternoon / evenings. Although want to go back . So much I didn't see and I really loved being there :)

First! Prague is the best city in Europe 🇸🇯❤️🇨🇿

Stumbled on this channel after another vlogger did a short video on her visit to Prague. Now I know that Valerie and Vaclav do VERY detailed videos on practically ANY Czech Republic topic. I've only been to Bulgaria. Practical advice for Czech Republic is different from Bulgaria. Example: Before my trip, the advice was do NOT change money before leaving my home. Best exchange rate is with a card in an ATM in Bulgaria. I did travel with stotinki and leva. Bought very little with my travel card. All that being said, Valerie's points are what I'd need in Prague.

Great video and very useful! Thanks so much for sharing. I watced many of your videos before i go to Prague and it helped a lot!! We used to change money at Na porici Street, next to a bakery. They had a very good exchange price.

4:00 you are absolutely correct on the 90%ish rule on credit cards. I went to Prague multiple times (took your tour in one of them) and had to pay with cash about 4 occasions.
Very honest tip! 😅😅😅

Petrov a.k.a. Cathedral of St Peter and Paul if I'm not mistaken (lived in Brno for a few years)

Best video I have found about Prague for tourism

[mgiese]

Valery, I have watched MANY of your videos. You do a great job and I always get a couple chuckles too. I will be traveling to Prague in less than three weeks (woo hoo)! I have just about everything planned for the trip as far as excursions/site seeing goes. Right now we are going to do/see: Medieval/underground dungeon tour, ghosts & legends tour, beer spa, Petrin tower, Prague castle tour, Kunta Hora, and of course the astrological clock, Charles bridge, etc. Is there any one item I'm missing that you would say you can't go to Prague without seeing? I had thought about the zoo. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks and take care!

If you end up with any spare change like I did you can just give it to a crazed homeless person, like that guy behind Valery @3:31.

[chrishutchison]

RPG’s!!! This was great! I had no idea about the new bills. I still have Crowns from 2011 so I will need to change them when I come next time. I am not used to seeing you on Sunday…. I like it!

[nomsky]

love the guy on the right at 3:31 what currency does he use? :D

[mracer]

The way I think Cze should be doing on updating their currency is to let public accept all legal bank notes, whenever old notes get deposited or go thru the banking system! exchange the notes to new version and destroy/credit the old notes! it will be trouble free and no confusion to the public/tourist!

Hello thank you for the video do you know the klementinum library?

[rickrisi]
