Guided Walks

A couple of recent posts have made mention of walking tours. Is there anything in Prague that is similar to London Walks where a group of people show up for cost of 6 pounds each.

Any suggestions on who or where to look for a walking tour guide %26amp; costs. I would prefer a small group but would also consider a private guide for a couple.

Thank you very much to the folks that have answered my previous posts.

I am going to Prague next week and have found several websites regarding walking tours. Though my aim is to include Prague pubs, these organizatins offer general tours as well - please try these;

Prague Walks - www.praguewalks.com They offer pub tours as well as Jewish Quarter, Prague Castle and several comprehensive jaunts around Prague - including a %26quot;Ghost Tour.%26quot;

Another option is through www.pragueexperience.com. They allow you to book a tour online. The average cost runs around 450 CZ.

Hope this helps - and hope you enjoy Prague.

www.praguer.com (city walks) is another company.NeedPivo I used them for the pub tour.I wouldn%26#39;t say the actual pub tour was great ,you could do them on your own ,but you do get to meet up with a crowd of like minded people and it is worth the fee just for that.I have used Prague experience before and found them to be excellent.

Martin tours also get a very good name on this forum.

All the walks go from the astronomical clock in the Town Square (you can%26#39;t miss it). The guides stand in a line holding coloured umbrellas, a different colour for each company. There are plenty of leaflets around (starting from the baggage hall) describing a multitude of walks and at most times of the day.

We went on two last week and in both cases we were the only people to turn up. The guides were great. I understand they have to pass a guides exam and were certainly keen to answer the questions. We also got some good advice on what to eat and the best beers from our philosophy student guide. We tried them all!

We thought they were great value for money and can recommend a %26quot;communist walk%26quot;, not because it is particularly senic, but because it gives some insight into what life was like behind the Iron Curtain. Not many places you can do that?
