  • Patrick Garcia

A very unique experience. He explains a lot on how the kgb was organized and demonstrates and explains various wespons. A bit disturbing was when he showed a video of modern operations. Just say no when he asks to show it. Hes a bit crazy but i think its part of the show and he is very enthusiastic about hes collection. Další

it's really worth your money! Andrei is a passionate person who explains everything to you in a style that amuses people. i am very glad i went there. I learned a lot and especially laughed how he explains everything to us. if you are in Prague and you don't go past the KGB museum, you are missing a part of Prague! Další

  • Hugo Venus

What a great guy. A refreshing change to the bland, characterless, oversensitive historical tours in modern museums. Some incredible artifacts and stories told with maximum passion and knowledge. Would highly recommend for an entertaining way to spend an hour. Thankyou very much for hosting us Další

  • Ana Dubreta

We had a blast, but I understand that the tour isn't for everyone taste, because the owner is over the top presenter, however he keps youre attention for the whole time (around 1.30h) and thats not easy. This is not a museum, it's a show, it's a play, and its definitely worth it. A must see. Další

  • Joanne Martin

This is a fun place to visit in Prague. It is a tiny museum, however the owner is a big personality with a wealth of stories. He is very engaging and we learnt a lot and had great fun. It is essential to book as it is only open if the host has four or more visitors. Další

  • Mark Fihl-Jensen

The strangest museum I've ever visited. The owner seems to be stuck in the Soviet era, almost celebrating the military parade in Moscow. Way to graphical in his demonstration of weapons. We considered leaving during the guided "tour". Certainly can't recommend. Další

This place was seriously great! Read the rest of the reviews so you know what to expect. Maybe not so good for kids, but you won’t find a more authentic experience. Once you realize what the displayed items are you will be in awe of what you are witnessing. Další

Interesting place. Owner is an eccentric guy, really good with his audience. He walks you around the room, pointing out items of interest and how they were used. He touches on the history of the Russian secret service, but the vast majority … Další

If you are familiar w Soviet history and interested in spy craft go. A small lovingly curated collection from a patriot whose family was ‘in the service’. Highly original and entertaining and definitely ask questions. Perhaps not for the squeamish.

I highly recommend visiting. Although the museum is really small, it’s jam packed with KGB weapons, uniforms, and other paraphernalia. The owner is a riot, and his enthusiasm is infectious. Really memorable, unique, and hilarious experience.
