  • Know More about this tour

    Your private guide will meet you at your Prague hotel and begin your private walking tour by leading you to the Charles bridge. As you walk over this centuries-old Prague icon for the other side of the Vltava, youll be following in the footsteps of kings and queens, lords and ladies who crossed it as far back as the year 1400!

    As you step onto the other side of the river, youll be in Malá Strana. Follow your guide to several area sights, including Our Lady Under the Chain, a church founded by the Templars while they were making their way to the Holy Land; Kampa park, where youll see replicas of the famous baby sculptures created by native artist David Cerný; Kampa Square, where scenes from the movie Mission: Impossible were shot; and the Franz kafka museum, outside of which youll see another interesting creation by Cerný.

    Next, walk to the tucked-away Vojan Gardens, not as well known as the Wallenstein Gardens, which youll visit next, but loved by locals. At the Wallenstein Gardens (part of Wallenstein Palace, which dates back to the early 17th century and is now home to the Czech senate), admire the rows of trimmed hedges and Baroque architecture, and then begin your walk up the hill to Prague castle.

    The incline may leave you a little out of breath, but youll be rewarded by the views of Prague that stretch before you. Prague castle dates back to the year 880, is considered the largest ancient castle in the world and is made up of many architectural styles, including Gothic, Baroque and Romanesque. 

    Then visit the Old royal palace, the oldest part of the castle complex, before heading to your last stop, St vitus cathedral. The Gothic church took nearly 600 years to complete and is home to the tombs of Bohemian kings and Holy Roman Emperors.

    We'll also take a break for coffee and cake in a cosy Café near the castle. The tour concludes in the castle.

      Tour guide was late, was not prepared, did not provide good explanations. On top of that he was making fun of other tourists all the time.

      Really bad experience

      I found this a bit disappointing I would like to have seen more of the castle and cathedral

      We especially enjoyed that the tour was private and that we could talk to our guide about the city and the people, but had taken the Prague in One Day Sightseeing Tour the day before and there was a bit of overlap. I wouldn't recommend travelers take both tours.

      The small group made this tour so much more enjoyable than large group tours. Love these private tours! Hope Viator brings more of these into their menu. Our guide was great. He picked us up right at our hotel and he had a wealth of information about the city and all the points we visited. At the end of the day,he walked us all the way back into town, giving us more info on the city and then directed us to our meeting point for our Beer and Tapas tour that evening.
