Itinerary

  1. The only still-standing gate into the Old Town of Prague is where we start the tour.

    5 min

  2. The largest square in Prague, where Czechs go to protest or to celebrate. This is was the face of the Velvet Revolution in 1989.

    10 min

  3. Prague's oldest still standing theater, dating back to 1783. (Exterior only)

    10 min

  4. We check out the oldest still-active astronomical clock in the world, with the famous show of the clock.

    10 min

  5. The Old Town Square, the center of civic life in Prague since the Middle Ages, with the imposing statue of Jan Hus, the Marian Column and the Church of Our Lady Before Tyn

    10 min

  6. The Jewish Quarter, a place full of history and legends. We give you a good introduction to the history of Jewish Prague, and see most of the important sights, but we don't enter any of the synagogues, as they require a separate ticket, and that would be a whole new tour, worthy of an entire day.

    30 min

  7. Famous concert hall

    10 min

  8. We take the tram (tickets included) up the hill to one of Prague's oldest monasteries. Other than enjoying the view, we can have a lunch break here, as the monks brew excellent beer, and have a fantastic restaurant, where can try all the staples of Czech cuisine.

    1 h

  9. The world's largest castle, according to the Guinness Book of Records, continuously inhabited for more than a millennium, the seat of the Czech president. We visit every courtyard, we see the change of the guard and more, depending on availability.

    1 h

  10. The last neighborhood we will explore, Mala Strana, or the Lesser Town, is Prague's oldest quarter, even older than the Old Town. But as it was destroyed by fire in the end of the Middle Ages, it is now a gem of Renaissance and Baroque Architecture

    30 min

  11. The famous stone bridge built by Emperor Charles IV in the the mid-1300s.

    15 min

About Prague

Prague's skyline of spires rises over the Vltava, with a hilltop castle, statue-lined bridge and a medieval old town that survived largely intact.

Prague Castle, one of the largest castle complexes anywhere, crowns the hill of Hradčany, with St Vitus Cathedral at its centre and the tiny houses of Golden Lane tucked behind. Below, the Lesser Town's Baroque palaces and terraced gardens lead down to the Charles Bridge, lined with statues of saints and busy from dawn.

Top-ranked sights in Prague: Charles Bridge (Karluv Most), Prague Castle (Pražský Hrad), Prague Old Town Square (Staromestské Námestí).
