Walking through ages: 11th to 21st century, Prague flavoured
Overview
Available languages
4 hours
Mobile ticket
A walking tour through Prague’s four main squares (Hradčany, Lesser Town, Old Town, and Wenceslas) takes you through centuries, from the 11th to the 21st.
Prague is called the "heart of Europe" for a reason—many events that shook the continent, like the Reformation and the Thirty Years' War, began here. It has seen both glory, as the capital of the Holy Roman Empire and young Czechoslovakia, and decline, as a mere city of Austro-Hungary. Its medieval churches, baroque palaces, and Bauhaus quarters hold memories of it all.
For centuries, Prague was a crossroads of German, Jewish, and Czech cultures. The Golem was created here; Doctor Faust lived here. It’s linked to Mozart, Kafka, and Milos Forman.
This is a 4-hour-long walk, at a moderate pace, with stops at sights for storytelling and conversation. It runs in small groups in a non-scripted conversational format and is fully exterior. You'll get practical advice too.

5.00Really loved this tour. Vadim, the guide, made the history feel alive and connected everything with stories and little details I would’ve completely missed on my own. It was more than a conversation than a lecture, and I’d recommend it for those looking for conversation and getting deeper into history.
Beautiful Prague

4.00A beautiful heritage and historical walk of 4 hours. The friendly Vadim guide knew the city well and the anecdotes of its history. Despite a French sometimes hesitant we recommend this visit!

5.00Vadim was great. Very professional and knowledgeable. Maybe it's better to come in the summer, but even in winter I had a great time. The Castle is probably the best of all.
Great thing to do when in prague

5.00Vadim was a great tour guide, he picked us up from our hotel and we went into the trams to Prague castle. It was great to learn how to use the trams so we can get around easier during our stay. He was full of knowledge about every area we visited, some old and some new. He also gave us recommendations of places to eat and drink during our stay. Great tour
Great tour, enjoyed learning about Prague

5.00Vadim my guide for the tour, has extensive and extremely vast knowledge of the whole of Prague. His interesting and often witty stories about Prague, old and new, have taught me more about the place than I ever learnt in school. I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting an excellent experience. So, many thanks Vadim.
