Additional Information & Description
Prague’s Old Town streets and the view from the Astronomical Clock Tower come together in this three-hour tour. Follow a licensed guide through the city’s historic centre, then finish above the rooftops, with a panorama that puts the places explored on foot into perspective.
Walk through Prague’s history
The guided visit begins with a short historical introduction to Prague’s Old Town and New Town districts. From there, head to Old Town Square, where your guide points out historic houses, palaces, churches and theatres. The route also traces places where Charles IV, Amadeus Mozart and Albert Einstein lived and worked. These connections give the walk a focus beyond the buildings themselves: you encounter Prague through both its surviving landmarks and the people associated with them.
A medieval clock with moving figures
The Prague Astronomical Clock is a 600-year-old work of medieval engineering. Its Gothic tower carries symbolic decoration, including statues that represent virtue and vice in human form. Every hour on the hour, the figures animate in a display with religious and cultural significance, accompanied by a trumpeter dressed in medieval regalia. Renovations have also revealed hidden treasures left by sculptors, some dating to the 15th century—another layer of craftsmanship behind the clock’s visible detail.
What the ticket includes
Your ticket includes the services of a licensed tour guide and admission to the Astronomical Clock Tower. The guided walk and tower visit have different formats: at the end of the tour, you enter the tower independently and make your way to the top. Live guiding is available in English, French, German, Italian and Spanish. The tower portion is self-guided rather than a continuation of the guided street tour.
