| The Prague City & Castle Bike Tour is a 2½‑hour guided cycle ride taking in both Prague’s historic city centre and the higher ground around Prague Castle. Experience the city in a way that only a bike makes possible.
Difficulty Level: Medium-paced 10km (6‑mile) ride. The route includes a few hills, with a total elevation gain of approximately 140m.
Prague Experience bike tours are led by expert local guides who showcase Prague’s famous sights and key attractions in a fun yet informative way. Regular rest breaks are included along the route to catch our breath, admire Prague’s stunning architecture, and allow the guide to share the history and legends behind the places we visit.
Young and old, novice to advanced cyclists, everyone should enjoy the trip.
We begin with a tour of the Old Town, after which we cross the Vltava River and ride up to the heights of Letna Park. From here, marvel at the views and take advantage of the excellent photo opportunities. We stop off at Prague Castle, cycle through to Petřín Park, and visit points of interest along the way; such as the Metronome, where the largest statue of Stalin once stood. We ride through the park on Kampa Island, back over the river, and on to the New Town to explore Wenceslas Square. Finally, we return to the Old Town, where the tour ends.
While we do cycle on roads, where possible the guide opts for back streets, parkland and trails, to ensure pleasurable biking all the way. Our Prague bike tours offer a unique experience. As we cycle thorough the streets and squares, through parks and across the river, immerse yourself in this wonderful city.
Afterwards, you should feel you have experienced the best of Prague.
