Prague: Ghost Walking Tour Where Legends Come To Life

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 5,253 reviews · 1h 30m · from $27Our pick

Walk Prague’s Old Town with guides such as Erik, Daniel, Jana, or Katerina, hearing legends tied to Charles Bridge, the Clementinum, and the Astronomical Clock. Live costumed characters appear along the route, adding playful scares to a 90-minute tour offered in six languages.

“We really enjoyed our time with Jane, she was very helpful and knew a lot about the city. We walked around and had fun learning on all the stories and the secrets. The ghosts out of nowhere made the experience a bit more fun. One thing we would recommend is to add a bit more legend and real ghost stories to be added in the agenda. However it's a very fun activity to know the city, totally recommended!”

We learned a little on a very cold evening and my only gripe I guess was that for a place that’s the most haunted city in Europe - why did we only get 5 stories?”
