Full description

Prague’s Old Town was raised several metres in the Middle Ages to protect it from floods, leaving the original ground floors underground. On this evening walk your guide leads you through atmospheric lanes and down into these vaulted spaces, including a former dungeon.

Along the way you’ll hear the legends that locals still tell: headless knights, cursed alchemists and the tale of the Astronomical Clock’s maker. It is atmospheric rather than scary, and a good fit for curious teens and adults.
