Today we did a city tour, walking tour and a boat trip on the Vltava. Highly recommended with the provider Viator.
On this tour you will learn all the important things about the history of Prague.

We took a trip to Prague with a three-hour city tour. There was a lot to see. Unfortunately, it was very hot that day, with 32 degrees Celsius. But it was very beautiful and interesting.
