A good itinerary for first time visitor?
Save

Hi, I'm visiting Prague from tomorrow until Monday. Just wondering if those who've been think this is a realistic itinerary and what I should make sure I fit in to Sunday and Monday.

Thu

Arrive Lunchtime in Prague (flight lands 10:30am). Check in at hotel (have made sure I can check in early), go and collect my ticket for the HC Sparta Praha game (my hotel isn't far from the Tesla arena). Get some lunch, and if theres time before the game perhaps visit the Communist Museum.

Fri

Take a walking tour during the late morning/afternoon, then a boat trip with dinner.

Sat

Day trip to Karlovy Vary- has to be Saturday because of when the tour is running. (Could be a day trip to somewhere else?)

Sun

Prague Castle, the Communist Museum (if there wasn't time on Thursday), general walking around- suggestions/ recommendations please! Black Light Theatre in the evening perhaps.

Mon

Maybe Petrin Hill (and the TV tower)? Or other parts that I haven't seen enough of. Will have to head for the airport around 4pm.

Anything else to make sure I see? I have my Lonely Planet guide at the ready, now just need to pack.

Thanks in advance!

You seem very organised but if you were to ask me what my must sees would be here they are..

Mine would be - in no particular order

1. Charles Bridge

2. Old Town Square with cocktails at the roof terrace U prince Hotel at dusk

3. Prague Castle and St. Vitus Cathedral

4. St. Nicholas Church, Mala Strana

5. Municipal House (Obecní dům)for morning coffee or afternoon tea

Thanks, thats useful!

Are there any opinions on the night time dinner cruises / excursions? I was interested in one but I had a read of livingprague.com and they're described as a 'waste of money'. Anyone think they're worth it? Would be nice to see Prague at night from the river but don't want to waste my money, and if theres a better option I'm prepared to go for it!

I would not do the evening cruise, what I have done is got the last boat of the afternoon which goes out in the daylight but when we have come back it has been dark but this was in January.

If you look at the posts on here re evening cruises or jazz cruises a lot of people think the food is not up to scratch,but if you get the boat from the rear of U Karle Mostu hotel on Kampa they do lovely cakes and pastries...Plus this hotel has a Pub with open fire and they do lovely food.

I would also put Black Light Theatre into the above search box to get peoples oppinions ,these do not get a very good write up either.
