Prague Highlights Bike Tour with Old Town & Prague Castle

Summary

Make your own way to the start point in central Prague. Meet your guide, get a safety briefing and hop aboard your provided bike for your 3.5-hour small-group tour. As you explore, listen to intriguing stories about Prague and stop for photos at the key sights as your guide shares tales about their past. Cross a stone bridge over the Vltava River and stop on Strelecky Island, a wooded islet with stellar views of Prague’s National Theatre. Soak up the views as your guide recounts a colorful story about the theater, and continue to Kampa Park on another of the Vltava’s islands — Kampa. Ogle the controversial giant baby statues by Czech artist David Cerný that stand outside the Kampa Museum, and enjoy panoramic views of the 14th-century Charles Bridge just up the river. Ride to the Lennon wall to see the John Lennon-inspired graffiti that became a symbol of protest during communist times, and pass the Kafka Museum, fronted by another, humorous sculpture by Cerný. Coast into the Jewish quarter past the Old Jewish Cemetery, dating back to the 15th century, and the Old New Synagogue, Europe’s oldest working synagogue. Then, continue to the Old Town Square, and admire the iconic Astronomical Clock, Church of Our Lady Before Týn, and other gems set around the cobbled space. From here, trace the narrow lanes to the 15th-century Powder Tower and Estates Theatre, where Mozart conducted the premiere of his Don Giovanni in 1787. Lastly, visit Wenceslas Square, the buzzing heart of Prague and home to a statue of King Wenceslas that presided over the 20th century’s most momentous events: the 1968 Prague Spring and 1989 Velvet Revolution. Your tour then ends at the original starting point.
