button to book Historical Centre & Castle Tour + Boat Trip Activity
The Historical Centre & Castle Tour guides visitors through the main historical areas of Prague. It includes a visit to Prague Castle and a boat trip through the city centre.

This sightseeing tour is part by air-conditioned bus, part by boat, part on foot (some of the city's best areas are pedestrianised).

After meeting your guide at the Lesser Town Square, we board the bus for a tour of the sights and attractions in this enchanting area of the city, before driving up to Prague Castle for a one-hour walking tour of the Prague Castle complex.

Prague Castle is the largest ancient castle complex in the world. It contains ancient palaces, large fortifications and towers, historic churches, and many national treasures.

As we explore the magnificent squares and take in the grand architecture of the buildings, the guide explains their royal and presidential connections, and recounts some of the castle's turbulent history.

Included in the tour is a visit inside the castle's greatest monument, St. Vitus Cathedral.

Prague Castle sits on a hill, so we encourage you to take in the stunning views over the whole city.

From Prague Castle, we walk down through the Lesser Town, and board the bus to cross back over the river to the Old Town.

Driving through cobbled streets, we learn of the historic events, traditions and legends tied to this ancient part of Prague.

Time for a well-deserved rest, we board a river cruise for a one-hour boat trip through the historical centre of Prague, sailing under Charles Bridge.

With the Old Town on one side of the Vltava River and the Lesser Town on the other, take in spectacular views of Prague Castle, Rudolfinum, the Prague Parliament and the National Theatre.

The boat is heated in winter and air-conditioned in summer, so is comfortable all year round. There is seating inside the boat and out on deck.

The bar on board serves beers, wines, sparkling wines, spirits, hot drinks, soft drinks and snacks.

Back on dry land, we visit the Jewish Quarter, where we learn a little of the torrid history of this former Jewish Ghetto and see the old synagogues.

The tour finishes at the Old Town Square.

Prague Experience sightseeing tours are in English and another language. They are led by licensed tourist guides and use modern, air-conditioned buses.

If you require a tour in German, Italian or Spanish, state it in Special Requests on the booking form.

------------------------------------------

Note: The order of the itinerary is subject to change in the event of adverse driving conditions.

Note: The boat trip sails around the city centre only, whereas lunch and dinner cruises travel further and include a meal and live music. If you wish to book this tour plus a lunch or dinner cruise, you will enjoy both, as they offer different experiences.
