Tour description

Start your Prague visit with this tour! Meet us at the Powder Gate at 10 am or 3 pm. Look for a guide with the red umbrella with white 100 logo on it! See the most important parts of Prague's historic center: Old Town, Jewish Quarter and Charles Bridge. Learn how to read the Astronomical Clock, the significance behind Czechs' historical tradition of throwing people out of windows, and the must-see and must-avoid activities in Prague.

You will also cross Charles Bridge because no visit in Prague is complete without crossing Charles Bridge!

After this tour you will be ready for your Prague visit! You will know how to speak Czech (basic Czech 😅), what food is actually local in Prague but most importantly you will know the amazing history of the city we grew up in and that we hold dear in our hearts.

And if you're not ready to say goodbye just yet, don't worry! We offer three other free tours in Prague that you can join. Just check out our profile to find out more. So what are you waiting for? Let's explore Prague together!

⚠️Bookings for groups larger than 6 adults are not accepted ⚠️

‼️Important‼️

  1. Our groups are limited to 30 people, which is one of the lowest maximum capacities in the city (other companies typically accommodate up to 40 people). If this number is too high for your preference, we recommend hiring a private guide. 
  2. We are unable to arrange alternate meeting points or assist latecomers in locating the guide, even if they message us via chat. Guides cannot send messages while they are waiting for customers or conducting tours. 
  3. Please note that this activity is not recommended for people with mobility challenges.
  4. We DO NOT go inside the synagogues and the Old Jewish Cemetery because it requires purchasing a ticket. We see the sights of the Jewish Quarter from the outside! If you’d like to visit the Jewish Museum after our tour, please sign up for the 10 am tour so you have a full afternoon to explore. Bear in mind that the Jewish Museum is CLOSED for Shabbat on Saturday.

Loved the walk with Jan. One of our favorite ones of all times. He made the walk super fun, kept us engaged and told us so many interesting stories about the history of Prague. Covered all the major highlights and gave us a curated list of brilliantly categorixed recommendations. We tried 3 of them and they were gems. If you are in Prague and want to do a general walk.of key highlights, ask for the Guru walk with Jan.
