Tour Description:
Begin your journey in Prague at the historic Strahov Monastery, known for its stunning library and panoramic views over the city. From there, head to the Prague Loreta, a striking Baroque pilgrimage site filled with intricate chapels and the enchanting sound of carillon bells.
Continue to Hradčany Square, where cobblestone streets open to breathtaking views and architectural masterpieces. Here, enter the magnificent Prague Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the largest castle complexes in the world. While exploring, we’ll step into St. Vitus Cathedral, where Gothic grandeur meets historic significance in a soaring, awe-inspiring interior.
Next, wander through the charming alleys of Lesser Town, filled with baroque buildings, quaint cafes, and unique shops that capture Prague’s old-world charm. Cross the iconic Charles Bridge adorned with statues of saints and lively artists.
Pause for a relaxing lunch at a local eatery, savoring Czech flavors and recharging for the adventure ahead.
After lunch, embark on a scenic boat ride, Venice of Prague, departing from a hidden dock under Old Town. Discover Prague’s mysterious waterways and navigate through the Judith Bridge’s last standing arch from 1169. Wooden boats crafted in 19th-century tradition provide year-round comfort; warm yourself with mulled wine by a historical stove in winter. Pass by the oldest water gauge, “Bearded Man,” and glide past the Velkopřevorský Mill’s wheel in the Devil’s Canal, enjoying an exclusive view of Prague Castle from the river.
Back on land, visit the Klementinum, an architectural marvel with baroque halls and a historic observatory, before strolling to Old Town Square. Here, marvel at the Astronomical Clock (Orloj), an iconic masterpiece of medieval science and art that puts on a unique show every hour.
This tour captures the timeless beauty, hidden gems, and celebrated landmarks of Prague in an unforgettable day of exploration.
