Itinerary

Duration: 3 hours (approximately)
  • 1
    Prague Castle

    Forget the fairy-tale name—this isn’t Cinderella’s palace. Prague Castle is the world’s largest castle complex, packed with royal halls, Gothic towers, secret courtyards, and panoramic gardens. We’ll enter through a lesser-known gate for a calmer, more authentic start to your visit.

    30 minutes Admission ticket included
  • 2
    St. Vitus Cathedral

    We’ll explore the soaring Gothic masterpiece where Czech kings were crowned and saints are buried. From stained glass by Alfons Mucha to stories of defenestration and divine drama, this cathedral is anything but quiet.

    30 minutes Admission ticket included
  • 3
    Old Royal Palace

    Step into the Vladislav Hall, where kings rode horses indoors, and revolutionaries changed history. With its breathtaking late Gothic vaulting and deep political roots, this palace still echoes with power.

    30 minutes Admission ticket included
  • 4

    Escape the crowds and catch your breath in one of Prague Castle’s most peaceful gardens. It’s the perfect photo stop, with sweeping views of the city, river, and red rooftops that stretch all the way to the horizon.

    St. George's Basilica

    This Romanesque gem dates back to the 10th century and holds stories of saints, murder, and miracles. Discover St. Ludmila, the grandmother of Czech Christianity, and the haunting tale of poor Brigitta.

    30 minutes Admission ticket included
  • 6
    Golden Lane

    Wander down the castle’s most enchanting street—a row of tiny, colorful houses once home to alchemists, guards, and even Franz Kafka. It’s charming, quirky, and full of secrets. We’ll tell you who lived where—and what they were up to.

    30 minutes Admission ticket included
