Žižkov: Prague's Raw & Alternative Side
- 3 hours
- English
Description
Step away from the crowded fairy-tale streets of the Old Town and discover the underground, colorful, and rebellious heart of Prague. Welcome to Žižkov - historically a fierce, working-class district boasting its own unique counterculture, a dense concentration of local pubs, and a spirit that refuses to conform.
This is a "Free Tour" (Pay-What-You-Wish) , meaning it is completely free to book, and at the end of our walk, you are free to tip whatever you feel the experience was worth!
Our Route:
We will begin at the hauntingly beautiful Olšany Cemetery (Olšanské hřbitovy) , exploring its historic grounds and hidden stories.
From there we'll weave our way through winding alleys, local secrets, and hidden corners that no regular guide will ever tell you about.
We'll wrap up the tour exactly how a true local would - by grabbing a cold beer inside a vibrant arts and culture hub housed in a former Austro-Hungarian barracks .
If you're ready to see the side of Prague that regular tourists miss, grab your walking shoes and come join me!
Guide: Itamar
Guiding since 2026Hi, I'm Itamar! I fell in love with Prague the very second I landed here back in 2011, making it my home after traveling all over Europe and exploring parts of the Far East, like Thailand and Burma. As an avid traveler turned professional guide, I know what makes a city truly unforgettable. When I'm not guiding, I'm a dad, a husband, a cat servant, and a drummer in a thrash metal band - so I naturally appreciate the louder, rebellious, and authentic sides of life! While I love Prague's classic history, my true passion lies in uncovering its raw, alternative side.
