The second oldest monastery in Prague with a great view of Prague, overseeing the Lesser Town and partially the Prague castle.
The most famous dominant of Prague, the largest castle complex in the world, the seat of the Czech kings and presidents for 1000 years.
One of the most significant buildings in the Czech Republic, its construction took almost 1000 years, as the Czech kings kept adding more and more, the final piece is from 1920.
The Old Royal Palace of the Prague castle, where the stairs match a horse step so that the knights could have ridden inside without getting off their horse.
The cute little houses, where the maids, court artisans, and even alchemists used to live are now turned in to little shops and museums. One of the houses was used by Franz Kafka.
The very romantic part of Prague with narrow curvy lanes and colorful houses with mostly red roofs.
One of the most famous Prague landmark, a majestic bridge built in 1357 by Charles IV, which is decorated with beautiful statues and offers the best views of the Prague castle.
The luxury brand shop street of Prague
The old Jewish Quarter of Prague
The very center of the Old Town of Prague, which witnessed many milestones of Czech history, surrounded by colorful burgher houses. It is overwatched by the Old Townhall with its Astronomical clock on one side and the towering Tyn church on the other.
Possible to see the exteriors and the free zone by the entrance. The gem of the Czech Art Nouveau architecture and design. Conceived by the best Czech artists (such as Alfons Mucha) supporting the Czech independence movement when Bohemia was still part of the Austro-Hungarian empire.

My wife and I enjoyed a full day tour of Prague with Continental Travel. The guide was extremely knowledgable and accommodating and the driver professional and navigated the complex traffic patterns with ease. Having a car and driver allowed us to visit and explore all of the important sites without becoming exhausted.
Dear Fred, Thank you so much for the great review. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed the tour and that you appreciate how the guide and driver accomadeted your needs. I will pass your kind words to them as well. Thank you & see you next time! Vit
Peter and Barbara were the WORST TOUR PEOPLE EVER! We are seasoned travelers, do a lot of city tours, had just had two in Budapest and Vienna that were wonderful full day tours. Barbara knew nothing. We drove along and the first things she wanted to show us was the view of the 4 neighborhoods. When asked why they decided to go together because she offered no information about anything, she said she thought the king thought it was a good idea? What king? I mentioned immediately that I expected a much more thorough description of everything we would be seeing and she told me she wasn't a historian, just a guide. We paid $1300 for this tour! I then called the company, hoping they could send us a better guide and the driver was the one who answered the phone. They told me everyone loved their tours and didn't understand what our problem was. At that point, I tried to find another tour for the afternoon. We stayed with the because we had limited time in Prague and felt something was better than nothing. We walked through the prague castle and she knew nothing more than what was on the signs and in some cases, less. The final straw was when we got the the Astrological clock, probably the most famous sight in all of Prague and she didn't know what the different circles were, including the astrological signs! I don't know how Viator has them on their list. I want a complete refund. I am so disappointed that we didn't get any information about anything we saw. We did fact check a few things she mentioned and she was wrong!! DO NOT TAKE THIS TOUR!
Our guide and driver were great and a wealth of knowledge. Highly recommend Barbara and Peter our driver
Was a delightful trip !! Barbara our guide and Peter the driver Strived to please and made our tour memorable. There was never a “no” they truly did their best to accommodate our requests. Totally worth it !
I think the tour would be good but our guide was not. If someone wants all the facts of Prague in a day, she would be the right person. She thought we were terrible stopping for lunch and not learning more. She said 'I thought Americans didn't eat lunch'. I don't think anyone else was brave enough to insist. We were on vacation, not in her college class. We called her horrible Hannah. Peter, the driver was excellent!
We were highly disappointed in the tour today. We were expecting a tour deep in Czech history but instead the tour skimmed over the surface. We heard more about the American famous actors that stayed in hotels. I also expected the tour guide to have a plan of what we were going to see, basically an outline of the day, nope that didn’t happen either. When we entered the church at Prague Castle, the tour guide really did not say anything. I expected a tour guide to be excited and eager to share in your rich history. I had to ask her about certain statues but she kindly pointed out the floor was covered because of a concert and the had brought in extra chairs! At this point I asked her how long she had been a tour guide for and she stated many years. That is hard to believe. Here is another example of the tour - we are passing the st. Vitus mosaic and she stated that “those are a bunch of religious scriptures” WHAT!! That is the last judgement, that I later found out from the souvenir shop. We paid almost $1,000 for this tour and didn’t receive a knowledgeable tour guide of the Czech cultural or history. The car was poorly organized as well, we should not be waiting more than 5 minutes for the car to pick us up. And when we walked crossed the st. Charles bridge, which was great, but when we get to the end of the bridge and we are at an angle of the st Charles statue, she then says a short sentence or two about it! What - seriously this was the worst tour guide.
Barbara was really knowledgeable about all thing Prague. We saw a lot and learned a lot. She took us anywhere we wanted to see and showed us all of the must see places. We would highly recommended this tour!!!
Extensive and overall great you of the beautiful city of Prague. Our guid was very knowledgeable about the city and showed us incredible sights.
