What kind of walk do you fancy?

Six shortcuts to the Prague you didn't know you wanted to see.

🍺

Beer pilgrimage

U Fleků (brewing since 1499). U Pinkasů (the first place to pour Pilsner Urquell, 1843). U Zlatého Tygra (Hrabal's bar, Havel and Clinton drank here together). Pilsner, dark, half-and-half - it's all under €3 a pint.

Hidden gem: Vyšehrad

Prague's other castle, on a hill south of the centre, with a stunning baroque cemetery (Dvořák, Smetana, Mucha buried here) and views to rival the main Castle. Almost empty.

Local knowledge

What we'd tell you on day one

The stuff you only learn after you've walked it.

01

Skip Old Town Square at noon.

The Astronomical Clock crowds are oppressive. See it at 8am or 10pm - same show, no shoulders. Old Town is best in the early morning anyway.

02

Beer is cheaper than water.

Half a litre of Pilsner: €1.50-2.50. Bottled water at a restaurant: €2.50-3.50. Drink the beer.

03

Currency is the koruna, not Euro.

Czechia kept the koruna (CZK). Most central restaurants accept cards. Beware euro-priced menus on Old Town Square - that's a tourist tax.

04

Charles Bridge before 7am.

By 9am it's shoulder-to-shoulder. At 6am it's empty, golden, and one of the most extraordinary 500-metre walks in Europe.

05

Best seasons: April–June, September.

December is magical with Christmas markets but cold. July-August is hot and packed. November is grey, half-empty, and atmospheric.

06

Petřín funicular is cheap.

Included in any public transport ticket. Saves you a punishing climb up to the lookout tower (Prague's mini-Eiffel) and the rose garden.
