Prague Ghost and Legend of Old Town Walking Tour

12.Prague Ghost and Legend of Old Town Walking Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 2,630 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $21Best value

Follow an English-speaking guide through Prague’s Old Town after dark, from Dlouhá Street and St. Agnes Convent to the Jewish Quarter and Old Town Square. Expect a small-group walk, local ghost tales, medieval history, and guides such as David, Allen, Sara, and Tina, with some stories more historical than frightening.

“Claire was our guide and she was lovely - everything was poised and she presented really well. The tales themselves are less gory/spooky (save one) but more historical tales of ghosts that deal with the city. The only thing I would suggest is either a louder mic for the presenter or earpieces for the guests, as it was a sizeable group and at times difficult to hear. If you have a free night before/after drinks, I think it's worth it.”
