Itinerário
Descubra a fascinante história de 1.100 anos atrás do maior complexo de castelos do mundo em uma excursão a pé privada de 3 horas pelo Castelo de Praga e pelo Distrito Real com um guia historiador. Este passeio a pé guiado o levará ao imponente Castelo de Praga, no topo da Colina Hradčany, através do Royal Garden e sobre o Stag Moat. Veja os edifícios antigos, que foram construídos e reconstruídos em todos os estilos arquitetônicos, incorporando monumentos românicos, góticos, barrocos, rococós, renascentistas e neoclássicos. Aprenda sobre os prédios do castelo com o seu guia historiador e como eles foram bombardeados por artilharia, saqueados por exércitos saqueadores e deixados a se deteriorar por imperadores austríacos indiferentes ao longo dos anos. Permita que seu guia dê vida a essa história com seu vasto conhecimento do passado turbulento do país. Recomendamos reservar uma excursão à tarde se sua programação permitir, pois o complexo do castelo geralmente fica menos lotado.
Passeie pelo Renaissance Ball Game Hall, onde os aristocratas esportivos jogavam tênis com o Imperador. Admirador do sgraffito renascentista que descreve as alegorias das virtudes, artes e ciências.
A mais pura arquitetura renascentista fora da Itália, a casa de verão da rainha Ana nos Jardins Reais do Castelo de Praga, encomendada por Ferdinand I em meados dos anos 1500. Foi convertido em um observatório astronômico por Rudolf II. Entre os convidados, Tycho de Brahe, Johanes Kepler e até o próprio imperador, que morreram aqui depois de perder o título real.
A catedral de St. Vitus em Praga é uma das catedrais mais monumentais da Europa Central e representa um exemplo proeminente da arquitetura gótica. Fundada na primeira metade do século XIV, foi finalmente concluída 600 anos depois, na primeira metade do século XIX. A catedral é o local da cripta real de soberanos tchecos e santos padroeiros. De particular interesse são o túmulo barroco de São João de Nepomuk, o primeiro mártir do selo do confessionário, fundido em prata e gótica capela de São Venceslau, que abriga relíquias do santo.
Caminhe pelo magnífico Vladislav Hall, construído no final do século XV, combinando o gótico tardio com o novo estilo renascentista. Foi palco de festividades e banquetes de coroação e torneios de cavaleiros. Os cavaleiros entravam no salão para participar das competições de justas com armadura completa e a cavalo pela Escada dos Cavaleiros, projetada precisamente para esse fim. Entre na ala Ludwig para ver a janela através da qual os membros das propriedades checas defenestraram dois governadores austríacos e seu escriba, iniciando a Guerra dos Trinta Anos, um dos conflitos mais destrutivos da história da humanidade.
Entre na austera e monumental basílica românica construída nas 1100 centenas. Compare sua arquitetura e seu interior com o estilo gótico da Catedral de São Vito, que acabou de visitar.
Caminhe por esta rua pitoresca e diminuta Originalmente construída no século XVI para abrigar os guardas do castelo de Rudolf II. Entre nos minúsculos quartos que agora abrigam principalmente lojas de souvenirs. Há um museu de arsenal medieval dentro da antiga fortificação do século XIV, acessível a partir de Golden Lane. Golden Lane está conectada à Dalibor Tower, que costumava ser uma masmorra.

We loved the tour around the Prague castle with Vadim! He's got so much knowledge and is excellent at sharing it. I would definitely advise to take this tour, with an additional remark that it would even be better to plan this tour after a more general introduction tour into Prague. We would have even better been able able to put the whole story in a larger perspective if we would have taken that more general introduction tour before as well. That's something Insight Cities does as well and even though we did not take that tour, considering our other experiences with them I expect it to be great and valuable too!
We're so pleased you enjoyed the tour. It makes us proud of our exceptional guide team and wide range of tours. Please try us again when you travel in Prague, Vienna, Berlin, Salzburg and Budapest.
We had a great experience with Bonita and Vadim. We joined Vadim for a behind the ropes visit to the Strahov Library before meeting up with Bonita for a tour of the castle complex. They are both such amazing guides--so engaging and interesting-- we wished we could have spent all of our time in Prague with them! I am confident that any tour with them would be amazing and I look forward to booking with them again.
Thanks so much for your review! Both Bonita & Vadim are fantastic guides and we are so glad you were able to have them both guide you through the beautiful city of Prague. We look forward to seeing you on another Insight Cities tour in the future!
We toured Prague with the intro tour with Vadim, and he was so good we came back for the Power, Glory, and Destruction tour the next day. He combined facts and anecdotes in a way that made the tours both informative and memorable. My understanding of Prague history is so much deeper now — definitely recommend!!
We're so grateful for this review -- Vadim will be so happy to read this. Let us know if you'd like more touring in our Central European cities. -- Elizabet at Insight Cities
Vadim, our guide, was one of the best guides we have ever had the pleasure of knowing. He is very knowledgeable and extremely generous with his time. His explanations of the castle complex and St. Vitus Cathedral made it all come alive for us. The time spent with Vadim made our time in Prague a true pleasure. By ourselves we could not have gotten to appreciate the complex nearly as much as we did. I can't praise him enough!
We're so glad the tour was such a positive experience for you and a meaningful part of your travels. Thank you for the review! Insight Cities
We toured the Prague Castle Complex with Vadim, and he was amazing! He was interesting and informative, and he knew the best times to tour each sight so we were never in large crowds. He answered every question we asked and some we didn't ask. The complex is large, and we would have missed so much if we went by ourselves.
Thanks so much for letting us know you enjoyed it! We really appreciate it. Elizabet at Insight Cities
This tour was FANTASTIC!!! Vadim was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about what he was showing and explaining. Also, Bonita was so easy to work with beforehand. Very accommodating and reliable!!! Highly recommend!!!
Thank you for leaving such a positive review!! Vadim & Bonita will be thrilled.
I've used Insight Cities for years for touring our student groups through Cold War history and the Old Town. This was my first year using them for a castle tour. As usual, Vadim gave us an lively discussion and really opened up the Castle's history in a deep way. The students always enjoy his tours and this one was no different. Thanks Vadim!
Thanks so much! It is just wonderful to see travelers and student groups again after this long ordeal. We really appreciate the lovely feedback and look forward to your next group!
We had an incredible experience with Vadim. He knew so much - the four people in our small group were professors/art historians and interested in history. He recognized that we weren't the 'typical' tourists who just wanted a few stories - but wanted all the details - so he gave us all the details & stories - we LOVED it! And I think he enjoyed having people who really wanted to hear the in-depth information - and he stayed with us longer than the 3 hours we had booked. We HIGHLY recommend - especially if you want more than just the 'typical' tour and stories. Vadim was excellent! He was also personable and enjoyable - we learned a bit about his own story, too - which made it even more fun! Great job, Vadim!
Our guide was extremely knowledgeable & presented a great tour. The best things about this trip was how we were able to dodge the long lines by knowing back ways into the gardens, being able to customize out trip by buying tram tickets to start at the top & work our way down & to find a charming, non-touristy cafe for some water, pastries & a brief respite off of our feet. I would highly recommend this trip to see Prague.
<p>Our guide was a local and was great. She provided lots of information and even stayed a little late with us as we were derailed by a heavy rainstorm. The castle and all its surroundings are amazing. Would highly recommend this tour.</p>
