Prague Castle & Surroundings

Prague Castle - dominant of Prague’s skyline and symbol of the Czech Republic. A monumental palace complex from whose heart soars a Gothic cathedral which holds the treasure of the

country’s crown jewels and is the final resting place of Czech princes and kings. We'll show you not only the Castle complex but also majes-tic palaces of aristocratic families situated in its outer bailey. Succumb to the charms of Nový Svět (New World), a place where Prague's poor thrived in the shadow of great wealth.

In the Footsteps of Prague’s Jews

Probably the most mystical part of Prague is the former Jew-ish Quarter, wreathed in legend. We will trace the footsteps of this distinct community, whose members included Rabbi Loew,

Max Brod, and Franz Kafka. In the former Jewish Quarter, you'll see age-old synagogues, including the Old-New Synagogue, where the legendary Golem, protector of our Jewish community, awaits his re-awakening. We won't miss the Spanish Synagogue with its fascinating Moorish decor or the Pinkas Synagogue, where you can silently hon-our the victims of the Holocaust.

Focus On: Old Town

The virtual heart of Prague is its Old Town, at whose centre lies the Old Town Square and the imposing Church of Our Lady before Týn. Here you'll see the legendary astronomical clock, whose

mechanism and astrolabe have fascinated the world since the Mid-dle Ages. We’ll follow the winding streets lined with burghers’ palaces, Baroque churches and medieval monasteries. The Old Town is also home to some of the most important examples of Czech Art Nouveau and Cubist architecture, building styles that are unique in the world.

Wenceslas Square

Focus On: New Town

The New Town is new in name only – its origins date back to the 14th

century and the reign of our most important emperor, Charles IV. It was the largest urban project in medieval Europe. The impor-

tance of the Gothic churches and monasteries located there is often overlooked. Over the centuries, the medieval structures have been re-born as shopping malls and boulevards where many important events have been inscribed into the pages of Czech and European history books. We will also show you the site of the tragic end of Operation Anthropoid and the primary locations of the Velvet Revolution.

Lesser Town

"It was a nice tour of the city, we've learned a lot of interesting information not only about the historical centre but also about its surroundings. In addition, our guide was very nice. The interpretation was good, and the guide knew how to convey the in-formation to the audience."

Lex, Get Your Guide

Focus On: Lesser Town

The picturesque Lesser Town is rightly considered the most roman-tic of Prague’s districts. This magnificent display of Baroque pal-aces and gardens offers a quiet respite from the hectic city cen-

tre. Lose yourself in the cobblestoned streets of the Lesser Town and the blind arm of the Vltava River, called Čertovka, which is swathed in legend. One of the newer stories is that of the Lennon Wall, which served as a place of free expression and resistance against the Com-munist dictatorship.

Monument tothe Heroes of the Heydrich Terror

Years of Terror

The romantic backdrop of Prague has been witness to human tragedy on multiple occasions. With the arrival of the Nazis in 1939, fear began to spread throughout the city. Head out with us

in the footsteps of Czech heroes and important personalities of Oper-ation Anthropoid, the assassination of Reichsprotektor Reinhard Hey-drich. The shortly acquired freedom after World War II changed very quickly in the years under the dictatorial Communist regime. What was known as Praga Caput Regni, or "Prague, Head of the Realm", became Prague "Ruined by Rain". So began forty years of destruction under the Communist regime.

Action! Camera! Prague!

Mysterious nooks and romantic Prague lanes have beckoned Hollywood since the earliest days of film history. Perhaps you’ve sat in the same theatre as Mozart in Amadeus, enjoyed

a drink in the restaurant from The Best Offer, or experienced first love like Spiderman Peter Parker. Prague doesn't always play itself in films, though, because it easily serves as the backdrop for blockbusters that take place in Vienna, Paris, or even in an entirely fictional fantasy world. Look carefully – you might see Prague through new eyes: the eyes of a filmmaker.

According to ancient legends, Vyšehrad is the oldest seat of Czech princes; in fact, the local settlement was established in the mid-10th century. Situated on a rocky promontory above

the Vltava River, it offers stunning views of the city, and the park area holds hidden architectural treasures including the rare Romanesque Rotunda of St Martin, the neo-Gothic Church of Sts Peter and Paul, the national cemetery Slavín, and the underground casements housing some of the original Baroque statues from the Charles Bridge.

Prague with Kids

One of the most beautiful and largest gardens in Prague is the Wallenstein Garden, where you can relax in an artificial cave, visit an aviary with owls, or rest your feet by a pond with catfish,

pike, and Japanese koi carp. You'll also see freely roaming peacocks. We'll reveal the secrets of Prague’s house signs in the Lesser Town, dis-cover the narrowest street in Prague controlled by a traffic light, and ride the funicular to the top of Petřín Hill. From the observation tower here, you can drink in the view of "golden" Prague or get lost in the mir-ror maze. This walk is an ideal way how to explore Prague with children.

Legends, Mysteries & Symbolism

In the 16th century, during the reign of Emperor Rudolf II, the founda-tions were laid for the legends and myths surrounding the Old Town. Delve deep into the time of Rudolf II, the Habsburg period, to the

origins of astronomy, astrology, and alchemy led by such figures as Tycho Brahe, Johannes Kepler, and Edward Kelly. Leading alchemists and magicians of the time sought the mysterious philosopher's stone, medieval thinkers attempted to create "drinkable gold", astronomers devoted themselves to observing the heavens, and at the same time, Jewish mystics tried to bring the Golem to life.

medieval walls, we'll show you several pioneering buildings from the Long Century, led by the world-famous Dancing House, the Brutalist New Stage of the National Theatre, and the First Republic Ministry of Industry and Trade on the Dvořák Embankment.

Prague in 48 Hours

See the best of Prague over one or two days and discover the beauty of the historical heart of the Czech capital as well as modern and less-visited city districts. The best way to explore

Prague is on foot. A good alternative, however, is public transport (which is not only inexpensive, but also reliable), but we can also ar-range transfers by car or coach.

Day 1

During a single day, you can walk across almost the entire historical centre of Prague, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1992. During this all-day walk-ing tour, you'll visit the largest castle complex in the world, meander through

the romantic Lesser Town, and cross over the second oldest Czech bridge to the Old Town, where you’ll find the iconic astronomical clock. In the former Jewish Quarter, you'll see fascinating synagogues, among which the Old-New Syna-gogue stands out, where the legendary Golem – protector of our Jewish com-munity – awaits his reawakening. The New Town, specifically the Church of Sts Cyril and Methodius, was the site of the tragic finale of Operation Anthropoid, and Wenceslas Square was the central point of the Velvet Revolution.

Day 2

One can get a complete impression of the capital city only by heading out of the historical centre, which tends to be overcrowded during the tour-ist season. Explore Holešovice, also known as the Art District, now home

to National Gallery Prague, the National Technical Museum, the DOX Centre for Contemporary Art, as well as the alternative art scene. Karlín, on the other hand, offers not only a wide variety of modern office buildings from leading architectur-al studios, but also Neoclassical and Art Nouveau façades. What do Holešovice and Karlín have in common? Without doubt, the cool, unconventional cafés, wine bars, and restaurants, which no true foodie or visitor to Prague should miss.

"We were really impressed with the help we got from Prague City Tourism. We wanted an experienced guide fluent in at least three languages - no problem. We wanted flexibility on content, amount of walking, where and when to stop during a 4-hour tour - all as we wished and adjusted on the fly. We were staying in an apartment in a residential area (Vinohrady); the guide came and met us at our door. All communications prior to travel were answered promptly with full detail. Prices were reasonable and much less than we expected giv-en our requirements."
