The best of Prague half-day tour
Description
Meet your guide in the very heart of the Old Town, close to the Charles Bridge, and set off on a magical journey through time. You will begin with a romantic stroll, after which you will explore the streets of Lesser Town, from where you will take a tram and admire the beautiful view on your way up to the Castle.
The tour will then continue to the Jewish Quarter, once the largest Jewish settlement in Europe, where you will find a number of exceptionally preserved synagogues and the ancient Old Jewish Cemetery.
But the highlight of the walk will be Prague's Old Town, with its beautiful square. This old marketplace, originally built in the 11th century, is dominated by the splendid Church of Our Lady Before Týn and the Old Town Hall. As a living witness of the history, the Prague Astronomical Clock has been measuring time for more than six centuries.
At this point, it will be time for a well-deserved rest, having lunch in one of the traditional pubs. After lunch, you will have the opportunity to explore some of the most picturesque narrow streets of the medieval Old Town on your way to the pier. Hop aboard a fully wooden boat built in the tradition of the 19th century and your Vltava River cruise can start.
In winter, guests are kept warm by stoves and hot wine; in summer, they are served cold beer or soft drinks accompanied by a sweet treat. After your cruise, you will have the chance of a free visit to the Charles Bridge Museum, which is located at the very same spot.
