Most visitors leave Prague Castle having admired its magnificent buildings but without truly understanding the remarkable story behind them. Because only a small part of the vast complex is accessible to the public, many visitors never appreciate how its churches, palaces, courtyards, and fortifications fit together or why the castle remains the symbolic heart of the Czech nation.
This experience has been created for travellers who want to go beyond sightseeing. Through expert storytelling and historical interpretation, you'll discover how more than a thousand years of kings, emperors, presidents, wars, and political change shaped one of the world's largest castle complexes. Conducted entirely outdoors, it provides the perfect orientation to the site, helping you understand Prague Castle as a whole before deciding which interiors, if any, you wish to explore independently.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
The meeting point is directly in front of the beautiful Rudolfinum. Our guide will have a dark blue flag with a white logo of a skyline and horizon.
The final location will very much depend on the guide; but, normally the tours ends inside Prague Castle at the panoramic area which offers great views of Prague.
