Enjoy a small-group tour to explore the development of Prague as a cultural capital during the reign of Charles IV, led by a scholar specializing in arts and medieval history. Take in the impressive vistas across the city atop Prague Castle and walk your way down through its history.

Your stroll begins at Prague Castle, overlooking the Vltava river. As you walk through the stunning halls, witness Charles IV's 14th-century improvements, taking in the ancient grandeur. Learn key facts about the structure in front of you and about the Bohemian king himself before moving down toward Charles Bridge, a Gothic masterpiece that was essential to the city's development.

Discuss the plans, vision, opulence, and prosperity of Prague during Charles's reign, ultimately resulting in the construction of the New Town. Continue on toward the Old Town, compare the city's before and after, and admire fascinating structures such as Charles University's Karolinum, one of central Europe's oldest dormitories.
