- Lukas | about the guide
This tour is an ideal introduction to the Czech capital. During your half-day walking tour, you’ll be taken around the center of the city described by 19th century philosopher Bernard Bolzano as “a city of a hundred towers”. Prepare to travel back in time as discover the Old Town Square, one of the oldest marketplaces in the city, and admire the historic Town Hall and the world-famous Astronomical Clock dating back to 1410. You will then move forwards through the centuries as you visit the house of the famous Jewish writer Franz Kafka and continue into the Jewish Quartier past the Old Cemetery and numerous synagogues. Prague is also a city of music and no visit would be complete without stopping by the neo-Renaissance Rudolfinum auditorium, which is home to the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra. Additional highlights include Charles Bridge, the Lesser Quarter, dominated by Saint Nicholas Church, and Prague Castle. You’ll also admire St. Vitus Cathedral, where the Czech Crown Jewels are kept and where King Charles IV, the country’s father, is buried.

I was born and raised in the historical center of Prague. I love travelling and after getting hands-on experience exploring numerous countries, I decided to become a tour guide in my hometown. When I finished studying history and social communications, I started off as a tour leader in the Czech Travel agency and then become an official licensed Tour Guide of Prague and the Czech Republic in 2007. Having grown up learning about this splendid and mysterious country, I decided to transform my passion for history and art into a profession. I love being a tour guide, meeting new people and learning about different cultures. I would be delighted to show you around the Jewish quarter, tell you more about the impact of World War II and communism and help you take amazing photos of unique places.
