Unveil 1,000 years of history at the world’s largest medieval castle! This 2.5-hour tour covers St. Vitus Cathedral and royal secrets, ending with epic views. Let a local expert show you the hidden gems of the City of a Hundred Spires.

From its ancient foundations in the 9th century to the soaring Gothic spires of St. Vitus Cathedral, Prague Castle’s story is a thousand-year epic of kings, emperors and modern presidents. But the real magic? It’s waiting for you within the walls of the largest ancient castle complex in the world, a place where every stone has a legend to tell.

On this tour, step into the heart of Czech power and uncover the architectural marvels that define the city's skyline. Starting with a charming tram ride up the hill, you’ll explore the majestic Old Royal Palace, the Romanesque beauty of St. George’s Basilica and the intricate mosaics of the Last Judgment.
