About this activity
Discover the fascinating 1,100-year old history behind the world’s largest castle complex on a private 3-hour walking tour of Prague Castle and the Royal District with an historian guide. This guided walking tour will take you to the imposing Prague Castle atop Hradčany Hill and through its Moat and Gardens.
See the ancient buildings, that have been constructed and reconstructed in every architectural style, incorporating Romanesque, Gothic, Baroque, Rococo, Renaissance, and Neoclassical monuments. Learn about the Castle buildings from your historian guide and how these have been bombarded by artillery, plundered by marauding armies and left to deteriorate by indifferent Austrian Emperors over the years. Allow your passionate guide to bring this history to life with their vast knowledge of the country’s turbulent past.
We recommend booking an afternoon tour if your schedule allows as the castle complex is often less crowded then.

Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and 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 and work our way down and to find a charming, non-touristy cafe for some water, pastries and a brief respite off of our feet. I would highly recommend this trip to see Prague.
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.
