Prague is a city filled with history, its magical streets and alleys containing some of Europe’s most iconic landmarks. Cobblestone streets lead the way to some of the most beautiful and fascinating churches, monuments and much much more.

There is so much to see and even more to learn. And no better way to start than by joining our Free Walking tour! We introduce you to this fascinating city so you can discover all of Prague’s wonders.

Tour Description

We start our Free Walking tour in the heart of Prague’s, in front of the Rudolfinum building, very close to the Old Town Square or the Charles Bridge.

During this essential tour of the city we include the most famous attractions within the Old Town Square, such as the complex engineering marvel that is the Astronomical Clock, which has astounded visitors for over 600 years. We will then explore the streets of the Old Town, visiting Charles’ University, the oldest university in Central Europe, and the Estates Theatre, which welcomed Mozart.

Our tour will continue to the Jewish Quarter, one of the most important in Europe. Learning about Franz Kafka´s life and the history of the Jewish community of Prague, we visit landmarks such as the Jewish Cemetery and the Old-New Synagogue.

Plenty of other stories, legends and hidden gems will be part of our Prague free walking tour. Come join us, and share with us the exhilarating experience of the city of the hundred spires!

Accessible by stroller or wheelchair and, of course, the youngest (and furriest) members of the family are welcome too.

Scott is an amazing story teller. He is full of historical knowledge which he keenly shares. We joined his tour of the old town and Jewish quarter at first and also decided to come back the next day for the castle tour. It was equally as interesting and engaging. He also gave us an extensive list of suggestions on where to go for food, tourist spots etc. I would recommend to go for one of the tours when you just arrive Prague for a general overview.

I went on three Tours with Verneus Tours, with Isard, Scott and Sarah: to the Old Town & Jewish Quarter, New Town and The Castle in Prague earlier this week. The tours were very interesting and informative. I learned a lot about Prague - it is a beautiful city and chock-full of history. I am sure I will be back one day. I loved my three full days. Thanks.

A very enjoyable tour on our first day in this city. Sarah was so knowledgeable and informative. Fascinating history. Her enthusiasm for the city was infectious.

We took 2 walking tours with Mel and she was great. Just the right level of detail about the history and sites of Prague. The tour was interspersed with local tips and the right level of humour. She always made sure the group kept up. She showed us how to use the public transport system. Told us about herself which is always nice to get to know the guide. Only intended to do one tour but as Mel was leading the castle tour in afternoon we decided to join that too.

Even though I live in Prague for more than a month I got a very different and magical vibe of the city though Scott's beautiful narrations. He is a great guide who managed to keep my interest for the whole tour, gave us important information about the city and useful recommendations for places to visit. I really enjoyed and I'll definitely join another tour!

Vandaag een mooie tour door het oude gedeelte en de Joodse wijk gelopen. Dylan was onze gids. Het was zeer aangenaam om naar hem te luisteren. Hij had een fijne stem, had voldoende humor ingebouwd, niet te veel. Heel leerzaam. Hij wist je te boeien, je haakte niet af. De tijd was zo om. Een aanrader.
