Itinerario
Reúnete con tu guía en el corazón del casco antiguo, en el umbral de la torre del puente del casco antiguo y emprende un fascinante viaje al pasado. Después de disfrutar de una vista panorámica del Castillo de Praga, la orgullosa sede de los gobernantes y presidentes checos, aprenderá que no muy lejos de allí se encontraba una vez la estatua más grande de Joseph Stalin en el mundo. Paso a paso, su guía cubrirá todos los eventos importantes.
Conozca lo que llevó a la nación checa del dominio de la monarquía austriaca a un estado democrático checoslovaco independiente, una de las economías más fuertes de su tiempo y también la última democracia en funcionamiento en Europa central y oriental después de 1933. Descubra el sufrimiento durante el Segunda Guerra Mundial bajo el “Protectorado de Bohemia y Moravia” nazi y sobre la Operación Antropoide, que fue el único asesinato exitoso de un alto líder nazi durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Revele los métodos y estrategias del régimen comunista y la influencia duradera de la URSS, que tomó el poder y transformó el estado antes democrático en una dura dictadura donde la vida humana significaba menos que nada.
Imagínese la euforia de la Primavera de Praga seguida por los tanques soviéticos que invaden Praga en 1968, disparando contra el edificio del Museo Nacional en la Plaza Wenceslao. En la misma plaza honramos la memoria de los jóvenes estudiantes que se quemaron vivos para unir a la nación contra el enemigo común en 1969. A medida que la historia se precipitó hacia los años 70 y 80 se puede ver su reflejo en las calles por las que pasa. Su guía le revelará el pasado largo y espinoso que condujo a la Revolución de Terciopelo de 1989, la máxima victoria de la democracia después de más de 40 años de comunismo. Escuche las historias sobre Václav Havel, estudiantes valientes, fuerzas policiales brutales y los enfrentamientos en Narodní třída. Su recorrido no estaría completo sin algunas historias humorísticas y oscuras de los tiempos de la libertad recién ganada.

The tour was very intetesting and a great way to see important historical landmarks in the city. I would highly recommend it to anyone who would like to know more about this period of history in Prague.

Forgive me for forgetting the guides name, but he was amazing. He was a student at the time of the velvet revolution, and took part in the demonstrations. The stories he told of hiding from the police and joining the resistance against the communist regime were so compelling and inspiring. If you’re able to walk 2 miles or so, this tour is amazing. If there’s a way for the guide to message me or respond to this, I would love to include your name if you happen to see this.

Martin was so knowledgeable and the entire tour was fascinating and insightful. He offered personal insights into life in Prague which were much appreciated and helped our understanding of life in Prague through the 20th century. Martin is much better than he thinks he is. We have done lots of walking tours and his was right up there at the top.

A lot of really interesting information about politics, history and culture sure to fascinate those interested in modern times. The walk is continuous but Anna kept the conversation pace to match. We saw places of significance and commemorative installations. Highly recommended

Tomas was a fantastic and engaging guide, 2 hours flew by and I learnt lots of interesting things that I suspect most visitors to Prague can easily miss. A must do and highly recommended, thanks Tomas!
Thank you for your feedback, we’re glad you enjoyed the tour and that Tomas made it so engaging and informative. Fun in Prague team
We have had a highly recommended tour from guide Martin. At home we had seen the film Anthropoid about the 2nd World War which takes place in Prague. That story will recur in the tour. Martin spoke good English and there were two of us so we could ask all the questions.
It’s wonderful to hear you had such a great experience with Martin! Watching the film Anthropoid beforehand was a brilliant move—it really makes the history feel alive when you’re standing right where it happened. We’re so glad Martin was able to dive deep into those stories with you and that the small group size gave you plenty of space for all your questions. We’ll be sure to pass your praise along to him!

We did this tour with Tomas last week. It was just the two of us on the tour and we got to spend about 2 1/2 hrs with Tomas. It was the best tour we have ever been on. Tomas is a very interesting, intelligent and articulate person. Tomas began by giving us a brief history of Czechia up to 1930's and WW2. While walking around Prague (and very quickly getting away from the very large tourist gatherings) Tomas delivered a really interesting history from WW2 to date, covering the end of the war, arrival of the Soviets, crushing of democracy and imposition of communism, prague spring in '68, brezhnez docterine of the 70s and the gradual unravelling communism and on to the present day. The tour was a fascinating blend of politics, history, his personal family backround and a real insight into life in Prague in the 70's onwards. Tomas was really engaging, a very nice bloke and we even found time to go for coffee, and later a beer (delicious!). I would highly recommend this tour. It was a definite highlight of our trip.

Unique experience. Our guide had been a student demonstrator during the Velvet Revolution so we had a gripping, first-hand account of the events of 1989.
