From the St. Vitus Cathedral to a Secret Alchemy Lab

On this tour, we’ll get you the tickets to visit the Castle interiors in advance so that we’ll start exploring right away (well, to be fair after we go through the security check – but we’ll take you through a Castle entrance only locals know so no long lines here).

We’ll cover the magnificent St. Vitus Cathedral, the most beautiful church in our country. We’ll continue to the Old Royal Palace where, besides other things, you’ll hear all about certain strange events that got repeated throughout our history so many times, there’s now an official term for them. You’ll also have the unique opportunity to visit an underground alchemy lab that lay hidden for centuries.

Take a Peak into a Medieval Torture Chamber

The Czechs used to be quite a ferocious crowd and wouldn’t stop short of rather drastic methods in dealing with their adversaries. Did you know they had a torture chamber within the Castle complex? Let’s take a look at some of the instruments they used there.

Through the Picturesque Golden Lane to Amazing Views

Afterward, it’s time to be wowed by the 900s Basilica of St. George, the old burial place of our ancient kings. And of course, we can’t miss the fairy-tale street known as the Golden Lane! We’ll finish the tour with our favourite view of all Prague from yet another lovely Castle garden.

Private Tour of Prague Castle – A Personalized Experience

Would you like to explore the Castle within a family circle or a group of friends? Are you interested in any specific aspect of local culture? Book a private tour and enjoy all the exclusive advantages of having the guide just for yourself! You can start the tour at whatever time you wish, our guide will pick you up directly at your hotel/apartment.

What happens after the tour is up to you! Would you like to finish at the nearest metro/tram station? Or perhaps still up the hill at the Castle so you can continue exploring on your own? Or in a nearby restaurant for a late lunch/early dinner? Just let us know and we'll make it happen.
