Prague
Why go?
People come from far and wide to revel in the splendour of Prague,
one of Europe’s most beautiful cities. One of the joys of
visiting this city is its size – small enough for all the
sights, museums and churches to be within walking distance of each
other. Whether visiting for a weekend or longer, use our guide
below to make sure your trip is unforgettable.
HIGHLIGHTS
Wander over the 600 year-old Charles Bridge by night, and
reflect on the statues along the banks of the Vltava charting the
city’s history. By day, you can hire a rowing boat on the
river.
Catch a ride in an open-top 1930’s Praga motorcar from
the Old Town Square and get the inside scoop from one of Prague's
most knowledgeable guides.
Enjoy a classical concert in St. Nicholas or one of the many
other elaborate Baroque churches – or go to a Jazz club for
something more contemporary.
Visit Prague Castle, well worth it despite the crowds. Enjoy
the amazing city vistas over a drink or lunch at the
The Golden Well terrace restaurant which clings to
the castle walls.
Glide up to the quiet of Petrin Hill by funicular (catch it
at Ujezd). Gaze down on the "City of 100 Spires" and enjoy the walk
back down to Hradcany and Strahov. Stop off for a beer at the
Strahov Monastery (pictured) and a wander round its ancient
library, which looks like something out of Hogwarts.
