About the trip
Discover the best of Prague in just a few hours on an exclusive private half-day walking tour. Your journey begins at Prague Castle (Pražský hrad), where you explore the courtyards, St. Vitus Cathedral, Golden Lane and much more. From here you continue into the quiet lanes of Nový Svět, one of the most charming and lesser-known corners of Hradčany, and on to the panoramic Strahov viewpoint.
The walk then leads across Petřín, with an optional climb to the lookout tower, followed by a descent to Újezd. You continue through Kampa Island and along the Čertovka Canal before finishing at Charles Bridge (Karlův most) and Old Town Square (Staroměstské náměstí) — the true historic heart of Prague. Throughout the tour, you’ll discover hidden courtyards, peaceful backstreets, and viewpoints that most visitors never find, supported by expert commentary and practical photography tips.
