Overview

Discover the charm of Prague’s Lesser Quarter – a baroque gem nestled beneath the Castle, once home to knights and noblemen, now a haven for artists and explorers. Nearly untouched for 300 years, this enchanting area offers cobbled lanes, grand palaces, quaint artisans' homes, and hidden gardens. We’ll wander scenic paths, uncover antiques and crafts, enjoy panoramic views, and optionally pause for coffee or beer in cozy spots. You’ll learn about the fascinating history of Lesser Town and Prague, meet historical figures tied to the area, and explore Czech culture, art, and traditions. Our walk may end with an optional lunch in a quiet courtyard beneath ivy-covered balconies. Slow down, look closer, and let history come alive.
This summer tour is tip-based with a small booking fee. Entrance fees (min. 2×6 €) and food are extra, but flexible. On a tight budget? Let me know when booking – we’ll make it work!

Novy Svet

Nový Svět - New World - is the most romantic street in Prague. It is unanimously called #1 hidden gem in Prague by travelers. Time seems frozen here 400 years ago. Irregular cobblestones flanked by ancient city wall and moat on one side, and by dwarf dwelling houses on the other remember the times when here stepped servants of the king, eg, Ticho Brage, one of the fathers of astronomy. In more recent times, it attracted artists and craftsmen - there lived one of the world's most controversial filmmakers Jan Švankmajer ("Something from Alice", "Faust")
