It was Richard's first day and we had booked in German. He was very nervous at the beginning. But the more we talked the more he relaxed. He talked clearly and was very polite. We did switch sometimes between English and German. Richard was very well informed and clearly enjoyed showing us around his home town. Thankyou!

Old Town treasures

Embark on a fascinating journey back in time with our Walking Tour of Prague's historic Old Town and Jewish Quarter. As your expert guide paints a vivid picture of the city's rich history, you'll stroll through the cobblestone streets of the Old Town. In the heart of the square, be sure to look up at the Astronomical Clock, still keeping time after hundreds of years. Nearby, the Tyn Cathedral pierces the skyline, sunlight shimmering on its golden spires, while St. James Church gleams with the vibrant hues of its stained glass.

The heart of the Jewish Quarter

Moving onto the Jewish Quarter, or Josefov, experience the poignant atmosphere of the 15th-century Old Jewish Cemetery, and marvel at the unusual counterclockwise Hebrew clock. Uncover the life and works of the influential writer, Franz Kafka, starting from his birthplace. Learn about his mostly German-written works, an unexpected fact considering he was a Prague native. As you stand beside the monument to Jan Hus in the Square, you'll discover the inspiring story of this beloved Czech reformer.
