Real Prague Guides · Powder Gate, Old Town
A walking tour from the Powder Gate through the Old Town and the Jewish Quarter, past the Klementinum and over Charles Bridge to the Lennon Wall. Pick it on your first day: it is the cheapest guided way across the bridge, and it shows you where everything is.
Real Prague Guides meets at the Powder Gate, the Gothic tower at the end of Celetná street; look for the red umbrella marked 100. The walk follows the old royal route into the Old Town, through the Jewish Quarter, past the Klementinum and under the Old Town Bridge Tower onto Charles Bridge, then into the Lesser Town to finish at the Lennon Wall. It is a lot of Prague for about three hours.
Everything is from outside. The synagogues of the Jewish Quarter are not entered, and the Old Town Bridge Tower is seen from outside, not climbed. That is why the price is about $21, the lowest guided option on this site. If you want the view from the tower, add the towers ticket another morning; if you want the synagogues, Jewish Museum tickets are separate.
Guests like the pace and the guides; one notes you should be able to keep up at a decent pace. Groups go up to 30, so stand close at stops. Ending at the Lennon Wall leaves you in the Lesser Town, a short walk from Kampa and the bridge's western steps.
