Overview

Come join our team of local expert guides to explore historic Prague’s „Old Town“ district hidden gems and highlights.

This walking tour is like no other – we combine the must-see sights with off the beaten path!

You will stop to discuss the landmark attractions like 600-hundred years old „Orloj“ Astronomical Clock, 13th century established Jewish Quarter „Josefov“, or iconic gothic Charles Bridge. Everyone who comes to visit Prague has to hit these. But that often means much visual noise and insane amounts of people.

Therefore, to make this more special, we also take you see the much more hidden and unknown corners you would not discover otherwise. Old Town is a fascinating labyrinth of passages and little streets.

Learn more about old Medieval times, rebellious priests and kings of Bohemia, but also about impact of the Second World War and the following Soviet era, or the 1989 Velvet Revolution.
