A great first stop in the city on the iconic Charles Bridge with a wonderful view from the top. If you don’t mind stairs (138 and 147 steps, respectively, for each tower) then this is a great activity. You get a good overview of the city with helpful illustrations along the platform detailing nearby landmarks. We also met a very nice trainee named Lukas who gave us many lovely tips about what to do in Prague.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.1 · 33 reviews · 1 day · from $10

Visit Prague’s Charles Bridge Museum in a Baroque building by the Old Town end of the bridge.

“Great value for money — the ticket includes a one-hour boat trip that explores the Charles Bridge and nearby sights. They provide a headset with an audio guide, which is clear and informative. I’d recommend doing the boat tour first to get the background story, then visiting the museum afterward — it’s interesting but doesn’t take long.”
