Marek is an excellent guide! We enjoyed how he kept the tour going at a good pace while also allowing plenty of time to take in the scenery. He took pictures for everyone in the group and shared points of interest and history as we passed relevant sites. At the restaurant (which was delicious!), he made great reccommendations regarding which traditional Czech dishes to try. At every turn, he kept us informed of what we were doing and where we were going so that we always knew what to expect. The Bohemian Switzerland Park and Bastei bridge were phenomenal sites to see! Pictures don't begin to do it justice, but suffice it to say this tour should be on your bucket list for sure!
2. Historic Center of Cesky Krumlov

Cesky Krumlov is a huge tourist magnet, which makes things colorful and easy for travelers. Lassoed by its river and dominated by its castle, this enchanting town feel lost in a time warp. At times it can feel like a medieval theme park - but not so much that it entirely tramples the place's charm. It's easy to enjoy strolling the town without ever paying to enter a sight. But it's worth considering the Baroque Theater at the castle and the Bohemian Castle inself, which can be seen only with a reserved tour. When you see in Cesky Krumlov awe-inspiring castle, delightful Old Town of shops and cobbled lanes, characteristic little restaurants, and easy canoeing options, you'll understand why having fun is a slam-dunk here. Most of Cesky Krumlov's modest sights are laced together in this charming self-guided walk from the top of the historic Old Town, down its spine, across the river, and up to the castle. The town and its historical center rich mix of Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque building which curve with the winding streets. Step into shops and snoop into back lanes and tiny squares. Take your time to learn, consider, admire and enjoy!!

About 2 km long walk on wooden path (slipery in wet weather) drives to torf lake. Panels around the path tell the story of Slavkovsky forest and the importance of wood and torf. Look under your feets. You can recognize tracks of some animals living in the forest. Follow the boards of the path. There is restaurant in Kladska village to enjoy local food. The path is closed in winter.
4. Old Town Hall with Astronomical Clock
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 26,938 reviews
The Old Town Hall is one of the most significant monuments in the Czech Republic. It was established in 1338 as the administrative seat for Prague's Old Town. Now, it is mainly used for the ceremonial purposes of the capital city, Prague. The historical town hall consists of a set of five medieval houses, the corner of which is adorned with a historical astronomical clock, a gothic oriel window and a massive rectangular tower. The lookout gallery on the town hall tower offers the most beautiful view of Prague. A tour of the historical halls in the Old Town Hall is a unique experience. The expensively decorated rooms date from various periods and are examples of the remarkable development of the town hall complex. The guided tours in various languages are organised in hourly intervals.

Absolutely LOVED this huge picturesque historical square and the wonderfully unique Astronomical clock, that does it's little music show for 2 minutes on the hour/every hour. Yes there are crowds but Prague is very popular - it's to be expected!! Get there early to see the 2 minute show for pictures/video, or eat at one of the restaurants that faces it (we recommend Cafe Mozart!!).

Connecting the Old town with Lesser Town, this popular pedestrian bridge is filled with musicians, painters, vendors and tourists during the summertime.

Lovely bridge with the towers at either end ( one of which you can certainly climb to the top (we didn’t do that) Great views across to Prague Old Town and back towards Mala Strana Petrin Hill and The Castle walking the other way . In June it was very busy and I recommend a stroll earlier in the day - the earlier the better, or very late at night if you dislike walking shoulder to shoulder with lots of people. Lined with artists doing portraits or caricatures, artisan wares and jewellery were interesting and early evening there were some great buskers to entertain. The statues/ Saints ( though not the originals as they are in a museum ) are really lovely to see. A busy but must see free Prague sight.

Six of us came to Prague Castle. We spent an hour or so wandering through, then joined the free tour associated with our Hop On-Hop Off two day ticket. The tour was done by a spectacularly good young French girl, Caroline, whose knowledge of English, history and her humour made for a wonderful couple of hours. The highlights of the castle include the three courtyards with their splendid surrounding buildings, the Old Royal Palace, Golden Lane, the Powder Tower, St George's Chapel, the gardens and, of course, St Vitus Cathedral started in 1344 but not finished until 1929. Hugely crowded, but a great day out.

This Gothic church, located in the middle of a cemetery, dates from the end of the 13th century; in 1698, it was rebuilt in the Baroque style. Sedlec ossuary, a small chapel located in the graveyard of the Church of All Saints, is decorated with the bones of more than 40,000 people.

It was quite a unique experience, there are 9 bone chapels in Europe. It has a great history behind it. The church is decorated with bones and skulls. IT is creepy and fascinating at the same time to see and walk around the church. It is a must visit and is hardly an hour drive from Prague.

The most significant square of historical Prague, it was founded in the 12th century and has been witness to many historical events. In addition to the Old Town Hall and the Church of Our Lady before Týn, the square is dominated by the Baroque Church of St Nicholas, the Rococo Kinský Palace, the Gothic House at the Stone Bell and the monument to Jan Hus. In the pavement of the square are memorial stones marking the execution of 27 Czech lords in 1621, and the Prague meridian.

We started our Prague city walk with the Prague Old Town Square since our hotel was located with walking distance. Wow, what a fascinating place it was, just like in fairy tales! Gorgeous streets with old and original street tiles/stones, amazing buildings all around, the fantastic Astronomical Clock, tall and historical Gothic Powder Tower, the wonderful Church of Our Lady Before Tyn, Charles Bridge, lots of beautiful and interesting shops and many great restaurants. And of course, with huge crowds. This was late September and we still saw many huge crowds in Prague Old Town Square and in all other city attractions. This was the busiest place of all places we visited during our vacation including Budapest, Salzburg and Vienna. It is not easy to describe this wonderful place because we were astonished everywhere we looked and walked. The whole place is just lovely. We went there multiple times and we still could not get enough of this charming and interesting place. We also went to Old Town Square during evening since the clock, the buildings, and Charles Bridge are so pretty when lit. Our first day walk took about 3 hours and we all really enjoyed it. Would highly recommend a visit of Prague Old Town Square and spending a few hours walking over this amazingly beautiful, historical, and fascinating place. Do not miss it!
