Private 3-Hour Castle Grounds Walking Tour and River Cruise

  • Free cancellation

About this experience

This three-hour walking tour is perfect for those who want to combine an afternoon river cruise with a visit to Prague Castle. The tour starts on the Old Town Square and takes you down to Charles Bridge, where you will board a ‘Prague Venice’ boat for a relaxing cruise along the river. Whilst listening to the commentary and taking in the magnificent views, you will be served with drinks and refreshments. After disembarking, our guide will then take you across the bridge at a leisurely pace so that you can take in the scenery and multitude of Baroque statues along the way. You will cross Kampa Island and pass the colorful Lennon Wall on your journey through the Lesser Town, an area many consider to be the most beautiful part of Prague. Surrounded by Baroque and Renaissance architecture, you will then board a tram to Prague Castle with St. Vitus Cathedral, which towers over the castle complex. The tour concludes with a stroll through the vineyard, which has the most majestic views of the grand city of Prague.
