Immerse yourself in the rich history of Prague full of intrigue, cruelness, love story and even magic. During our walking tour you will feel that each stone is whispering an old legend.
We are going to walk through the best tourist attractions you must visit during your stay im the Old town quoter and Jewish quoter: the iconic Charles bridge, outstanding Astronomical clock and Old-New Synagogue with your expert guide. Prepare to be inspired by the enigmatic beauty of Gothic style churches and amassing Baroque buildings.

    Every day, hundreds of people come to see the short appearance of the apostles' statues from the small window on the top of the clock.

And how to «read» the Astronomical clock? We will figure it out.
