Itinerário
Descubra a fascinante história de 1.100 anos atrás do maior complexo de castelos do mundo em um pequeno grupo de 3 horas a pé 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.

Excellent. We wanted a small personal tour... Not a tour with 20+ people. Robert, our guide, was entertaining and very knowledgeable. We also had a two year old in tow in a stroller and had a great time!
Thanks for the warm feedback. That makes our day. And thanks for recommending Insight Cities tour to your friends traveling to Prague, Berlin, Vienna, Budapest and Salzburg. Safe travels!
We had an amazing castle tour with Katrin! We learned so much history about the castle and Lesser Town that we never would have known if we had tried to walk around the castle on our own. Katrin is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. You can tell that she is very passionate about history and enjoys her job. Take this tour... you won't regret it!
Thank you for taking the time to review. We're proud to work with such terrific guides. Hope to see you again on Insight Cities tours in Berlin, Prague, Vienna, and Salzburg. Please tell your friends!
This tour was of a superior nature. The guide was phenomenal, talented in history presentations and extremely knowledgeable of the regional history. Would recommend him many times over.
Thanks so much for your kind review. We hope to see you on another Insight Cities tour in any of our cities - Prague, Vienna, Berlin, Budapest, or Salzburg.
This was the very best tour we have ever been on! Vadim was an amazing guide, and kept myself and my 15 year old son engaged and fascinated the whole time. His knowledge was extensive, and the interesting facts he shared about Prague's history brought the city to life. I highly recommend booking this tour. My only regret is that we did the tour at the end of our trip instead of the beginning. We were disappointed we didn't get to explore the city with the perspective that Vadim shared. We'll just have to go back. P.S. We loved the tour so much, we booked one with Insight Cities Vienna right after. 5 stars for that one, too!
Thanks so much for your review! Vadim is a fantastic guide and we are so glad you had a great time with him. And thank you for booking one of our tours in Vienna as well! We look forward to having you back on our tours in any one of our cities - Prague, Vienna, Berlin, Budapest, & Salzburg.
The history of the architecture, nobility, emperors and religion. Our guide was very knowledgeable and personable. He shared many interesting antidotes throughout the tour. He also suggested additional places to visit on our next 2 days in Prague.
Thank you for leaving a review, Lisa! We're glad you enjoyed your tour. Insight Cities
This is one of the best tours I have ever had. Vadim is simply incredible. What makes his style so noteworthy is how he brings history to life in a way that only the best tour guides/teachers can. When you take this tour he sets the stage for the various historical times periods making sure you understand all the significant ideas of the time as well as the important historical figures. I have not felt so engaged with the history of a place then on this tour. He also knows the best places to stop for some incredible Czech beer and food.
Vadim was an excellent tour guide! He is extremely knowledgeable and it was obvious that he did the research and knew the material and that he wasn't reading from a script. He pointed out all the little details I would have missed. He was able to answer all our questions and was very friendly and kept everyone engaged in the tour. The best part was he knew a great pub or brewery near everything! Great tour highly recommend!
The Prague Castle and its grounds are beautiful, but unless you go with a guide like Vadim, you'll miss so much of the history and nuances of Czech culture. Vadim is smart, witty, and deeply knowledgable guide.
We're so glad you enjoyed the tour. We're proud to offer great tours with team of experts. Hope to see you on Insight Cities tours again in Vienna, Berlin, Prague, Budapest, and Salzburg. Have a great summer and thanks for reviewing!
Bonita was an excellent guide. she was very knowledgeable and was easy with any questions we had. it was a pleasure to have her as our guide
Thanks for the nice feedback. It was a pleasure to meet you and help you explore this wonderful old Bohemian capital. It would be great to see you agian on Insight Cities tours in Prague, Berlin, Vienna, Budapests and Salzburg. Have a great summer.
Prague Castle is so beautiful and we just didn't want the tour to end! Super guide, attentive, good at weaving in and out of the crowds and a terrific story teller. Very worthwhile.
