The Golden City, the City of a Thousand Spires; for centuries Prague has been sweeping visitors off their feet with its romantic streets, soaring towers, and great beer! From the heart of medieval Bohemia to the capital of the Holy Roman Empire, the glory days of Prague's rich culture are shadowed by oppression, under both the Nazis and the Communists. Beside - and sometimes under- the flowing Vltava River, the Czech capital captivates, inspires and moves like no other city. Our expert guides bring to life the legends and take you in the footsteps of Kafka, Good King Wenceslas, and the Golem. *Average tour length. The Prague Free Tour usually ends at Jan Palach Square, in front of Rudolfinum. The independent guides with whom we work have your best interests in mind; while the tour usually includes the sites and stories above and lasts this long, your tour may vary depending on what your guide thinks is best for your group!
