Prague neighbourhoods
The city's main districts, a good way to choose a route or a theme:
- Old Town and Josefov
- The Old Town Square, the astronomical clock and the Jewish Quarter.
- Castle and Lesser Town
- Prague Castle, St Vitus Cathedral and baroque streets below.
- New Town and Vysehrad
- Wenceslas Square and the clifftop Vyšehrad fortress.
How to pick a good walking tour
- Free tours are paid in tips at the end. Paid tours cap the group size and usually go deeper into one theme.
- Wear shoes you can walk in for two to three hours, often on cobbles or hills.
- Book an early start in hot months. Guides keep to the shade, but midday streets still bake.
- Pick one theme (old town, food, history, street art) rather than a tour that tries to cover the whole city.
