Introduction to Prague Tour with Charles Bridge
Bridge Prague’s past and present, side-by-side with a local guide
"A fascinating walk through time with a friend"
Our journey through the Lesser Quarter, across the iconic Charles Bridge, and into the historic heart of Old Town felt less like a typical sightseeing tour and more like a fascinating walk through time with a friend with inside information. Ernestina’s knowledge of the city’s history and architecture allowed her to blend rich historical context with local legends, fun anecdotes, and insights you won’t find in a guidebook.
"Spell-bound for hours"
Robert was an excellent guide to show us the fascinating city of Prague. His knowledge of history, architecture and culture kept us spell-bound for hours—he artfully condensed 2000 years of history in a meaningful, engaging and witty way. Awesome tour!
