About This Tour
During this 3-hour night walking tour you will have the chance to see Prague Castle and its surroundings in quiet without the crowds. Hear how scientists and magicians were attracted to Bohemia during the unique reign of Rudolf II, and how alchemy, magic and astronomy have placed an important part in history. Wander through streets filled with legends, including the stories of the Golem and the Devil’s Bible (Codex Gigas) – both featured in Dan Brown’s The Secret of Secrets. Enjoy the castle grounds and famous ‘Golden Lane’ as you avoid the daytime crowds and distractions, and as night falls enjoy the spectacular views the city has to offer from the largest castle complex in the world. This tour is a mixture of legends and historical facts, taking you to one of Prague’s most enchanting areas.
