Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

The Prague Castle, listed as a UNESCO World’s Heritage Site, is undoubtedly a must-see attraction. Nowhere else in the world you will see so many different architectural styles in one district. We'll admire the exteriors of the castle, see St. Vitus Cathedral - a medieval gothic church from the 14th century, the Old Royal Palace, St George’s Basilica, walk the famous Golden Lane and enjoy the view over the city that will take your breath away.

I will take you to my favourite part of Prague - the Little Quarter, full of beautiful churches, baroque palaces and lovely beer places, too.

One of the most beautiful bridges in Europe connects the Old Town and Lesser Town (Malá Strana). Charles Bridge is on the top of every Prague visitor's must-see list. It is also popular with Czech artists, musicians and souvenir vendors whose stands line both sides of the bridge year-round.

The most significant square of historical Prague. You will not only see all the majestic attractions this square has to offer, but also learn quite a bit about the Czech history throughout the centuries, both hard facts and interesting bits of information like why are all the old towers black and spiral staircases inside of them go always anti-clockwise, or why we are the least religious nation in the world.

Located in the New Town which is not as "new" as the name suggests - it was founded in 1348. You'll learn quite a bit about the recent history of our country as well as about the present - how we live, what are habbits are, where are the differences and what we have in common.

Let me walk you through the Jewish Quarter “Josefov”, part of Prague’s UNESCO World Heritage Site and present you to its striking monuments and memorials, standing both as a tribute to Prague’s rich Jewish heritage and a grieving reminder of its tragic past.
