About This Adventure

Discover Prague’s Old Town on a private walking tour that blends iconic landmarks with hidden gems. Enjoy a personalized experience with a dedicated guide, exploring the rich history and fascinating stories behind sites like the Astronomical Clock and Charles Bridge, all while avoiding the crowds and souvenir shops.

Join our team of local expert guides for an unforgettable exploration of Prague’s historic „Old Town“ district, uncovering hidden gems and highlighting its rich history.

This walking tour is like no other - we found a very unique route that takes you away from the endless souvenir shops, sketchy parts and crowds. We combine the must-see sights with off the beaten path!

You will stop to discuss the landmark attractions like 600-hundred years old "Orloj" Astronomical Clock, 13th century established Jewish Quarter "Josefov", or iconic gothic Charles Bridge. Everyone who comes to visit Prague has to hit these, but that often means much visual noise and insane amounts of people.

Therefore, to make this more user-friendly and special, we also take you see the much more hidden and unknown corners you would not discover otherwise. Next to all the modern city chaos, Old Town is a fascinating labyrinth of passages and little streets.

Along the way, we provide you with a rich historical context, share interesting facts and stories, plus useful recommendations to help you have a great stay.

Learn more about old Medieval times, rebellious priests and kings of Bohemia, the infamous execution of the 27 leaders, impact of the Second World War and the following Soviet era, or the 1989 Velvet Revolution.

Enjoy Prague’s most beautiful area with its proud residents - not like "umbrella tours", but more like a friend that guides you around.
