Highlights
- Prague Castle - Prague Castle, the largest castle complex in the world, is a highlight of any tour of Prague. This stunning architectural achievement, which took centuries to complete, reigns supreme from a hill above the rest of the city. The Castle, founded in 870, is also the seat of the Czech president. Dominating the complex is the breathtaking, mostly Gothic Saint Vitus’ Cathedral, which took a staggering 1,000 years to build. Under Emperor Charles IV, Prague Castle was the seat of the Holy Roman Empire. During darker days, Adolf Hitler occupied it. In rosier times, first democratic president Tomáš G. Masaryk and dissident-playwright-turned president Václav Havel ran the country from here.

Additional Information
This bespoke, private walking trip took form over several years of guiding expertise and is specifically crafted for those with just one day to explore the key attractions of Prague at a leisurely pace.
This walk is private, hence, you dictate the tempo. You have the option to take breaks for coffee, lunch or even a boat ride (not included). Our guide will also offer you handy tips for the rest of your visit.
If you’re in Prague for more than a day, we advise taking the ‘Best of Prague’ tour over two days by reserving the right riverbank (Old Town and Charles Bridge) and left riverbank (Prague Castle and Little Quarter) tours for separate days.

- Private Walking Tour of Prague’s Old Town and Charles Bridge (Right Riverbank)
- Child rate applies only when sharing with 2 paying adults

Exceptional and abundant information - Nicola was a wealth of information. Very patient with our questions and very personable and authentic. I must apologize cause I mixed up the time we were supposed to meet her. I thought it was at 8:30 vs 8 am. I only found out when we got back to our hotel to check our schedule. She never a word about it and carried on and still gave us the full 4 hour tour. Always checking to see if we needed a break, very kind ans caring. Thank you so much Nicola. You are great!!!

Prague in 4 hours - Nikola absolutely loves her job and it shows! We took time before starting the tour to advise what our main interests were . We mapped it out and away we went! Nikola knew her history and was able to answer all our questions! Four hours was not enough to cover everything so with the help of Nikola, we condensed and saw what we could. Definitely going to get in touch with Nikola when we go back!

Enjoyable and Informative - Our guide, Margret, was great. We enjoyed the stories she told and showing us some spots that not every visitor to Prague gets to see. Definitely worth the price.

Best Walking Tour of Prague - If you want THE BEST tour of Prague, make sure to book with Nina Jelinkova. As a Czech native and perfectly fluent in English, she will provide you with an unparalleled tour of the capital city!!
Her fund of knowledge is incredible. She knows all the Prague attractions and exactly when to reach each venue to enjoy the best experience.
I went with Nina alone since my wife was "under the weather". The pace was perfect.
The history, art and architecture that saw was fantastic.
If you want to see and hear everything about Prague, you must pick Nina's private tour. It was well worth my time and the price was great too.

Exceptional Private Tour with Nicola - Was met at our hotel by our guide Nicola. She was waiting in the lobby to meet us. She is extremely well versed in English and provided great details about the city as we walked through Prague. We stopped and saw several places on the walk that showed the rich history of the city. She was also flexible in the route ensuring we saw places and things that we wanted to see in the city. During a small period of rain we stopped for coffee and local pastries. I highly recommend her for any tour of Prague!!

A real must ! - Truly superb . Our private guide Gabriella was just superb .
Informative, fun and attentive .
Our guide met us in the hotel lobby , taking us by bus and tram to Prague Castle , we then walked , at a steady pace back to the market area and Clock Tower , arriving just in time to watch it chime and see the apostles change .
Gabriella pointed out and educated us on all the landmarks on the way back . We walked over Charles bridge taking in the spectacular views.
Such a wonderful day , I would highly recommend but our trip was enhanced by the wonderful Gabriella .
A real must when in Prague

The best way to see Prague - Absolutely wonderful private tour that exceeded my expectations. My wonderful tour guide was super friendly and very knowledgeable and did not mind pivoting when I let her know what I had already seen. She took me to locations that were different that what I had seen on a tour that I had done the day before. It was the perfect complement. Having one on one allowed me to be able to pop into fun retail shops as well as grab coffee. It was such a great experience to learn the history and also to hear firsthand how it was like to live in Prague during Communism. I can’t say enough great things. Wonderful and I highly recommend.
