Walk down the Charles Bridge

You cannot tour Prague without taking a stroll along the cobblestones of the city’s most beautiful bridge - a historic masterpiece with 16 arches and 30 Baroque statues of religious figures. Charles Bridge was commissioned by King Charles IV in 1357 and has since survived centuries of traffic and floods.
Admire the Astronomical Clock in Prague's Old Town Square

Every hour, hundreds of travellers gather around Old Town Hall to watch the incredible mechanical display of Prague’s Astronomical Clock. As the clock strikes, the procession of the Twelve Apostles is set in motion, with statues moving through a stone chamber. The medieval clock has been putting on a show for over 600 years.
Take a relaxing cruise on the beautiful River Vltava

A cruise on the River Vltava is one of the best ways to unwind on our Prague tours. Enjoy a lunch of local delicacies as you admire Prague Castle, Charles Bridge and Kampa Island from the water. Our Local Specialist will also let you in on the legends, myths and secrets of this wonderful city.
Visit St. Barbara Church in Kutná Hora

Located in the historical city of Kutná Hora, St. Barbara Church is a grand Roman Catholic cathedral. The building took over 500 years to complete and today is one of the most famous Gothic churches in Europe and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Admire picturesque views of Prague from Petrin Hill

Take the funicular or hike a wooded path to the top of Petrin Hill, where you’ll find a hillside parkland of fragrant gardens and spectacular views over Prague. For an even better view, head to the top of the 19th-century Petřín Tower, the city’s version of France’s Eiffel Tower.
