We love your mother because she supported Vaclav and made you possible. We love Vaclav Havel for bringing Prague back to life the way we love it and we love you for inspiring us to travel to Prague three times in a row.
Grateful Mark & Sandra
Prague looks so much nicer at night too!
Wow your mom is so privileged to have worked closely with mr Havel. One of the great figures of European modern history and an inspiration for mankind.
I wandered around Rome at 3AM .. I had the city to myself , Trevi Fountain was deserted ... it was worth it 👌
Spooky
Was it safe? Like no crime or anything?
I also just went at like 7am and nobody was there. During the pandemic things have been pretty empty
When I visited Prague just before the pandemic hit we visited the castle at sunset and it was so beautiful to see the city with the sun setting.
but with people or without?
I love to see videos like this, you never see places like this without tourists
I agree! I hate it when I go to a place and a bus arrives, then comes many tourists pushing their way in because they have a limited time to look at everything.
Unless you were cursed to be alone. I was practically alone in the Great Wall of China where most travel photos make it look like Tokyo in rush hour. I got to be alone in Phuket and Bali.
Without tourists??? I guess you´re a tourist here yourself? Nothing wrong with that - welcome!
@@Bo-tz4nw They mean without a lot of tourists that it's hard to move and enjoy things. Tourists are good, but when it gets too be too much, it can anger locals and other people around.
When I visited the Daliborka prison back in 2016 I read that the violin thing was actually the name of a torture instrument and prisoners "sang" to it, meaning they confessed any crime including those they didn't commit. So the nice story is actually a horrible one.
The 1st house at the top of the Golden Lane is worth visiting though: full of armours, weird weapons and yes... tourists
Angličtina
Torture was never used in your country? I don't know much about the Czechs and the history of other countries.
@@annakodydkova9169 A little defensive. I didn't take the original critically at all. Of course torture has occurred everywhere. Relax.
@@caldelt Yeah? I don't know, but maybe I could find out something. I wonder how different it was.
Congratulations on 1 million subscribers!!!
What a great tip!! The Castle looks so pretty at night.
5:00 - honest mom working for honest president. Good old days...
1000,000 Subscribers!!!!!!! Congratulations from Arizona.
Congrats on the 1 Million!!! You guys are awesome and keep up the honest work!
Props to your Mum!!! And that PC you were on as a kid!!! Love it!!!
You gave this Tipp in a former Video. Therefore we visited the castle in 2019 after 8 o'clock in the evening. Thank you, that was really great!!!!!! We highly recommend that. Greetings from Vienna, Ulli
Back in June 2019, I used your trick to visit Prague castle after 5 pm. It was indeed beautiful!
In winter right?
Now if I see tourists there late in the evening I can be sure theyve watched this video 😂
I returned to the Netherlands from Prague on Dec. 20th, 2021, and I miss it very much! Lovely city! Thanks so much for your videos.
It has to be added that the poor fortuneteller Matylda predicted for a Gestapo officer that the germans are going to loose the war and payed with her life for it!!! Brrrr.... 😵
I wish you could have told more. I will have to google her. I hope I can learn more about her.
Nice to know your Mom was working under Havel administration and you were there in the office. World history is my cup of tea and someday when the pandemic will slow down I will travel most part of Europe including Prague .
Brilliant video, cheers guys. Had no idea Golden Lane was free after 5pm. Will def visit
Thank you for the tip! You’ve brought back so many lovely memories of our visit to the castle! We cannot wait to return! Congratulations on 1M! Much deserved! ~Cara 😊
I'll probably never come overseas but it nice to see u care bout ur country ..
I’m definitely going to visit in the evening one of these days. Afternoons around 4pm is not too bad either especially in the winter. However, it may be freezing and windy 🥶
Every sunday I am looking forward to your videos! Keep up the good work and I hope to see you in Prague!
Kafka occasionally stayed in his Sister's appartment there. In a couple of letters he says the quiet atmosphere there was conducive to writing. He would have hated the tourists.
Thanks for this insight. I love to go to visit many famous cities during off-hours. First thing in the morning works for me as I'm an early bird and love to get up at the crack-of-dawn and I've had really good luck visiting all the wonderful places around the world by simply getting up early. The best thing with this plan is I can nap mid-day at the hotel and then spend my evening at a show or a bar. ***BTW, what a little cutie you were when you were as a boy. :)
I just discovered your channel. I wanted to say that in all my travels, Prague is the most beautiful city I have seen. Although I was never scammed, I did feel uneasy from all the stories and warnings I heard. I love that you are helping to change this, thanks so much for the videos you create.
CONGRATULATIONS on your MILLION viewers,,, I have been watching for years and years, you have helped me immensely on my 2 trips (hopefully 3 soon) to Prague 😎👍😍
1 million! Congrats!
I absolutely love your videos, guys, for super cozy atmosphere, for all these small personal stories and experiences! And I always enjoy Honza's camerawork! (is he giving some courses, I want to apply 🤩)
Finally coming back to Prague in October 2022 ! :) after 3 years
Im going to Prague this year!
Congratulations on hitting 1 million subscribers
Congratulations on 1 million subs!
That golden lane story is a pretty good one
Great video!!!
On my last visit (2020) I followed your advice and the experience, as you have documented again here, was fantastic.
Am hoping to visit again SOON!
Till then,
Ahoj! Ciao!
Keep up the great work 👍
Lovely video & tip! Brought back wonderful memories when we visited Prague Castle (with loads of people of course) prior to the pandemic. And thanks to one of your previous videos about the same restaurant, we had a great meal there - delicious food at very reasonable prices considering it’s location.
Hi I love your channel and never miss an episode. I have used all the information you give in my last visit to Prague. I took your advice and visited Charles bridge and the Castle early in the morning and it was fantastic no tourists except my wife and I lol. Thank you and keep up the good work
Awesome video! You guys are the reason I came to study here!
That's cool about your mom. I live in Temple, Texas. Exactly on the other side of the world from Progue. In fact the part of Texas I live in has a history of Czeck culture in it. Not to mention we have a Czeck Museum as well. Progue is the ONLY city I want to visit someday outside of the US.
Who knew, my old dog could say castle in Czech :P
I'm in decin now, later will come to Prague and see ❤️❤️🇨🇿
Prague vs crooks videos were awesome. Please do more. The taxi 1s in particular were really interesting
congrats on the 1mil subs!
Thanks to Janek's suggestion.
We did visit the castle in the evening when we visited Prague a few years back. It was AMAZING!!!
To je skvělé video, díky vám za ně kluci šikovní.👍
Congrats to 1 million subs :)
First time I early! Nice video always
I knew this tip from another one of your videos and I loved to be there in June, October and December 2021. So beautiful, so quiet and so true, no tourists. Please make more videos like this instead of the scamming ones. That makes Prague seem like a terrible city and I never experience any scams when I visit. Or did I watch all of your videos and that is why.....🙂
I never experienced and scammers either but when I was with my czech cousin she saw a pickpocketer at the castle and went up to him and yelled at him and hit him until he left. Czechs hate scammers. Another time some teenagers dropped some coins on the ground and I went to help them pick them up and she pulled me away yelling at them for trying to scam me. Apparently when you help them they scam you somehow. That is why the scamming videos on here are so important. Would you rather see the church at night and lose all your money or watch the scamming video here and see the church and not lose your money?
No, the scam videos is important for us viewers if we want to visit prague. It'll make a better experience and you won't lose money.
I think the scam videos are very important. One bad scam can leave someone with a bad taste for the country. Not only that, they talk and tell others to stay away.
@@blackdogslivesmatter1568 A couple of anti scam-videos would be great, maybe 1 out of ten. The rest about how great the city of Prague is. In my 12 times I have been to Prague I think Prague is pretty safe for people. Don't wear any money or phone in sight and always be a bit cautious when you are approached. By the way...I love the Honest Guide! They are my Prague heroes in the last two tough years.
Excellent presentation!!! I love Prague! Very cute little boy in front of the huge computer at the Presidential Palace😊
congratulations on 1 million subs!
So great. Thanks guys a lot for perfect tips
The castle is beautiful at night.. thanks for showing it... Congratulations 🎉 on one million!
Love your content Janek. I hope to go back to Prague and we can have a Pilsner Urquell!
congrats on the million subs Janek and Honza. We'll be seeing a playlist button trophy up on instagram and twitter soon.
I was there 3 months (From NYC). I do love night time, so I took advantage of the evening time visit. It was magical. I did see it also in the day, but def loved it by night. A great way to avoid people and especially during covid. I actually planned on doing a video on that, so thanks for this :)
congrats on 1mil sub!
Havel na hrad❤️
This is very great thanks so much
LOVING IT LIKE USUAL!!!
EDIT:- THANKS FOR MAKING US QUARATINE SPECIAL!!
gratulation for 1M subs
You had done an amazing job with the paper model of the cathedral! I remember it well :)
Was there just before the christmas. The place is a must visit at night.
What an amazing place and very beautiful.
I so want to visit Prague now!
It looks like a full lockdown there :D Congrats with 1mln subs!
You are brilliant !
I'll be back in winter. Was there until yesterday... the weather sucked :D
Love it... Thx
i didnt know that i wanted to plan a honey moon in Prague until now!
I just recently saw your Linz Video, and then a question got into my head. Have you already made a video of Vienna? I searched it up, but didn't got any results. I would be very happy if you could visit Vienna, the capital of Austria, and make a video of the city.
I’ve decided I’m gonna re visit Prague this year 😌
Brilliant video
Just watched till the end of your vlog to see what the Czech word is and Rath is irish for Castle or Fort too
Haha nice, czech Rath is actually in prison :)
@@siloton Not anymore :)
@@Auberron Ahhh true. Fuk him :D
Good work brother
The Daliborka prison is also full up to the roof with some hell of a torture implements!!!
Janek baby!!!! You're so handsome!!!!
Love the czech rep, would visit every year if I could
Ahoj! What is the name of the restaurant near the castle in the end?
ah fuck, i had to pause my honest guide video to watch this new honest guide video
actually did this by accident last time i was there in august
we just were too late and everything was free, lol
Where would you recommend a first time solo traveler to stay in Prague that's affordable and safe? I'm looking to visit the first week of March. Watching all your videos and preparing for my visit. I'm so excited 😊
I love your video. I've been to Prague 5 yrs ago and loved it. On October 2023, I am coming with my 21 yrs teenage nieces. I want to know the name of that restaurant where you had dinner across the Palace. thank you.
teď jsem zrovna dokoukal českou verzi :D. Je to úpně stejný :DDDD
někdy jo, někdy ne
Paráda! Niekedy vyskúšam
Thanks. What a great time to visit! Question; is it safe at night and how late can you remain on the grounds? Thx coming in Early Nov and can't wait!
Good tips! Practical question about the 5pm. Is it also in spring and summer?
I had that experience without knowing it. Too bad there were repairs going on but yeah, it's mystical and very humbling. And it's been only 2 years ago and didn't have a wide lens. I guess I'll have to come back
Krasne video jako vzdy.
Love your videos but, to be honest, have seen too few of them and especially about Prague. We’ve been there 3 or 4 times and always found new places to see and visit.
Passing through the park behind the castle you eventually come to mansion with sculptures - a long but great walk. Also all the area around the castle is just fantastic: the eiffel tower, the funicular and the statues of the nameless people emerging from the dark times ….
Great video.. Just wondering whether it is safe to be in all those places with so few people around?
Praha is a lovely city!! I have a question: Who lives in the castle buildings now??
Prague wasn't on my bucket list until I began watching your videos. Thank you for all the wonderful videos that have inspired me to visit Prague in the first week of March 2022. Do you recommend buying the Prague Card or the City Pass? I want to experience as many historical sites as possible. Also, I am thinking that the Communism Museum is a must-see as well as the major well-known sites. Honest Guide videos are helping to create a list of all the things to see and do as well as places to eat..
Seeing Prague at 2:00a.m. is another good way to avoid the crowds.
It looks so much better at night
I just started watching your videos on Friday and I'm pretty sure I won't visit Prague because broke :() but still, I really do enjoy your commentary :))
I’ve been there so many times and not even noticed there is a restaurant. Crazy!
Dont take the jab
i hope i will run into you if i ever have the opportunity to visit Prague or Czech Republic
Cooking! Great food!
Can I get free entrance after 5pm in summer?
What's the name of the restaurant at the end of the video? Couldn't find a mention of the actual name.
