Duration 5 hours
Private tour pricing from 1000 CZK per person
Group tour available in English
I just took the first “Anthropoid Tour” that Marcus has offered and was very impressed. He took about 20 minutes to set the movie up with an easy to understand history, showed the 2016 version of the movie in a 1930’s cinema theater and then took us to some of the places featured in the movie. During the tour, he handled a breadth of questions related to those difficult days factually but with language that would be easy for anyone to follow. I highly recommend this tour. It will probably take about 4-5 hours depending on your questions and pace. Just one final thing that those with small children might want to consider; the 2016 version of the movie is realistic and intense.

Description

Our adventure begins in the funky Kino Aero cinema in the trendy Žižkov neighbourhood. We set the scene in cinema cafe, where the guide will provide an introduction to the events that lead to the Nazi occupation of Prague. We'll discuss the problems faced by the local Resistance, the role of Czechoslovak government-in-exile and the context under which Operation Anthropoid was authorized.

We then watch the movie, following the story of Jan Kubiš and Josef Gabčik, the two parachutists chosen to assassinate Heydrich, right up to the final dramatic shootout between the assassins and the SS.

After the movie, there's time for a Q&A and a discussion with the guide, before leaving the cinema in search of some of the real locations featured on screen. We'll see the Moravec safehouse and Gestapo headquarters, before ending the tour at the Church of Ss. Cyril and Methodius, where the fateful final battle took place.

The tour is limited to a maximum number of 15 participants.

Awesome for WW2 buffs
Watching the movie (my second time) in a classic Czech theatre was again heart-rendering. I've lived in Czech for some time and know much of the story. But even for me the guided tour opened up new insights I'd never seen nor thought of before. Well worth the time and money.
Necessary for locals and travelers!
Marcus met us at a local independent movie theater (which I plan to revisit for some great movies!) and discussed some historical background about the true story of the two parachuters during WWII who assassinated Heydrich, Hitler's right hand man. We then watched the disturbing but important film and discussed more and asked a zillion questions - which Marcus answered. He then took us on a tour through Prague to some of the most relevant sites from the movie. Marcus is knowledgeable in his quiet and friendly manner. It is a moving and important tour to take for both locals and visitors to Prague. I highly recommend it.
