Itinerary

We begin our tour in the historic heart of Prague: Old Town Square. This lively and colorful square, with its outdoor cafes, Gothic and Baroque buildings, and street musicians, has a fairy-tale atmosphere. Amidst the crowds, we stand in front of the Astronomical Clock Tower and witness one of the city’s unique symbols: a mechanical clock with moving figures that perform a short play on medieval religious and mythological themes every hour.

In the same square, our gaze is drawn to the Church of Our Lady before Týn, a building with two conical towers that seems to have come out of a fairy tale. The atmosphere of this square is a combination of historical splendor, everyday life and a deep sense of presence in one of the most authentic capitals of Central Europe.

Visiting time: about 1 hour

We continue our journey towards the Vltava River and cross the famous and iconic Charles Bridge. This stone bridge with its religious statues, watchtowers and romantic facades takes us into the poetic world of Prague. On the bridge, the sound of music, street painters and the aroma of local breads are in the air.

After crossing, we enter the historical and charming Mala Strana neighborhood. The narrow alleys, colorful houses, and quiet, traditional atmosphere of this area have kept the atmosphere of the 17th and 18th centuries alive. We walk a little on the cobblestone streets and enjoy the classic atmosphere of Prague in the relative silence of this neighborhood.

Visiting time: about 45 minutes

Climbing the gentle slopes to Prague Castle, we arrive at one of the largest and most historic royal complexes in Europe. Perched on a hill overlooking the city, this castle has been the residence of kings and presidents since the 9th century.

At the center of the castle, we enter the magnificent building of St. Vitus Cathedral. This Gothic church, with its stained glass windows, tall columns, and semi-darkness, evokes a sense of grandeur and spirituality alongside its architectural grandeur. Being inside this church is a moment of silence and reverence in the heart of Prague's thousand-year history.

Visiting time: about 1 hour and a quarter

After visiting the church, we head to Goldsmiths' Alley, a narrow alley lined with small, colorful houses that were once home to goldsmiths, royal guards, and artists. One of the houses was the temporary residence of Franz Kafka, the famous Prague writer.

In this part of the castle, the atmosphere of medieval everyday life comes alive as you stroll through the houses, craft shops, and historical exhibitions. The cozy, quiet, and relatively secluded atmosphere of the alley provides an opportunity to take photos, pause, and enjoy the authentic atmosphere of Prague.

Visiting time: about 45 minutes

We descend from the castle and stop at one of the traditional restaurants in the Mala Strana neighborhood. The interiors of these restaurants are usually a combination of domed ceilings, brick walls, and wooden tables with simple, classic tablecloths.

The menu includes dishes such as goulash soup, potato dumplings, grilled meat with special sauce or local cheeses. Along with the hearty taste of the food, the restaurant's quiet atmosphere and the faint sound of conversations create a warm and intimate moment in the middle of the busy day's sightseeing.

Duration: About 1 hour and a quarter

After lunch, we continue our journey to Petrin Hill; a delightful green space in the heart of the city that, like a natural park, provides an opportunity to relax and admire the view of Prague. Our walking path passes through towering trees and flower gardens. We reach the top of the hill by cable car or by walking on a steep path.

At the highest point stands Petrin Tower, a metal structure that closely resembles the Eiffel Tower. As you climb its spiral staircase, a panoramic view of Prague with its orange roofs, church spires, the Vltava River, and historic castles unfolds before your eyes. Seeing the city from this angle is an unforgettable experience.

Visiting time: about 1 hour

On the way back down the hill, we head to an artistic and diverse neighborhood, where the John Lennon Wall has become one of Prague's cultural icons, with its colorful paintings, signatures, and messages of peace and freedom. The wall, which became a free canvas for peaceful youth protests after the communist era, still takes on a new face every day.

Next, we enter the lovely and peaceful Kampa Island, a quiet canalside neighborhood with pastel-colored houses, small bridges, and poetic cafes. The island's narrow streets and silence are a chance to stroll slowly, people-watch, and enjoy a more artsy, local side of Prague.

Visiting time: about 45 minutes

Now it's time to experience the Prague landscape from a different angle. We board one of the small tourist boats and set off on the calm surface of the Vltava River. The gentle wind, the reflection of the sky and the image of the Charles Bridge on the water's surface give us a poetic and peaceful moment.

On the way, we pass by historical monuments, domes and towers, and with brief explanations from the guide, we once again see the architectural grandeur of this city from a different perspective. The boat ride is an ideal spot to relax, take photos and enjoy the special feel of Prague in the late afternoon.

Duration: About 45 minutes

To end this productive day, we return to where we started our tour: the Old Town Square. This time, we sit down in one of the traditional cafes with tables overlooking the Clock Tower or the Tyn Church and order a delicious evening meal.

A mild Czech-style coffee, the popular cinnamon or walnut-flavored Tradelnik, and a warm look at the people coming and going create a pleasant atmosphere to wrap up our day. Here, we have the opportunity to review the memories of today's tour and end the day with a sense of satisfaction and peace in the heart of one of the most beautiful European capitals.

Duration: About 45 minutes
