European Christmas markets are like a storybook come alive: twinkling lights, wooden stands selling handmade gifts, steaming mugs of mulled wine… A trip to Prague during the holidays wouldn’t be complete without a visit to our famed Christmas markets; you simply have to experience this magic for yourself! On this tour, you’ll explore three of the most traditional Prague markets with a local guide and learn about the history and traditions of the holiday season.
How taking this tour will benefit the local community: All the stands we visit are 100% owned and run by local Czechs. As we’re in a small group of no more than 12, we don’t disrupt local life. By taking our guests to off-the-beaten-path locations, we help businesses that would usually not be visited by travellers.
Did you know that Prague Christmas Markets have been voted among the top 10 most beautiful ones in Europe? Don’t miss a chance to be part of this special occasion and come witness the city at its best with your own eyes!
“Veselé Vánoce!” (Czech for “Merry Christmas!”)
This Prague tour is a cosy, intimate holiday adventure through the picturesque streets of the Old Town and the vibrant atmosphere of the animated Christmas markets. If you’re in Prague during the holiday season, there’s no better way to experience the Czech Christmas culture.
We’ll kick off at Franz Kafka Square (a small plaza near the Old Town Square) where you’ll meet your guide, a Prague resident, and a local culture specialist. Together with a small group of like-minded travellers, you’ll embark on an unusual excursion that feels like a Christmas party with friends.
As soon as we’ve said our hellos, we’ll head off to the first on the list of our chosen markets. At each one of these, you’ll sample delightful treats like mulled wine or Christmas cookies. You can also count on at least one other surprise that your guide will pick for you based on the daily offer and your own specific taste.
While strolling around the markets, your guide will share Christmas stories and explain our unique holiday traditions. Be ready for a decent amount of fun facts as our customs can be quite extraordinary and different from your own! You’ll also learn about the specific ways in which Christmas has changed in the Czech Republic, from before the Communist era, throughout its duration all the way to our contemporary Christmas celebrations.
We'll meet you in front of the House where Franz Kafka was born, in the tiny Franz Kafka Square, just a few steps from the famous Old Town Square (in front of Amorino Gelato). Our guide will be holding a "Prague City Adventures" sign.
Please ensure that you arrive at the meeting or pick-up point ten minutes before your tour starts.
