The morning opens on a quiet street in Vinohrady: tram clacks in the distance, chestnut trees shade wide sidewalks and the city feels like a local's secret. This private, six-hour walking tour threads through Žižkov's gritty rooftops, Vinohrady's villa-lined avenues and the terraced slopes of Nusle, stopping at park belvederes and the fragments of Prague's 14th-century fortification wall.
