45 minutes that reveal more about Prague than a whole day of walking: what will you see from the boat?

In just 45 minutes, you’ll be treated to a view of the historic center that you simply can’t get from the streets.
Let’s take a look at everything that awaits you on board.

You go where others just take pictures

Your cruise doesn’t start somewhere on the outskirts of the city. You set sail right from Charles Bridge, from Křižovnické Square in the Old Town. Even before the boat sets off, you’re standing in a spot that’s among the most photographed in all of Prague. The difference is that you won’t be staying on shore here. In just a few moments, you’ll see the bridge from a completely different perspective.

Charles Bridge from Below: A View Few People Know About

Most visitors to Prague see Charles Bridge from above, surrounded by a crowd of people. From the deck of a boat, however, you can view its massive pillars and arches from below, right from the river’s surface. It’s a view that reveals more about how this medieval structure was built than an hour spent in the crush of people above. It’s only from here that you can truly appreciate what an impressive feat of engineering the Charles Bridge is.

The Mysterious Čertovka Canal

The boat will take you to the Čertovka Canal, one of the most romantic parts of Prague. This narrow branch of the Vltava River, lined with old houses, has earned the nickname “the Venice of Prague” precisely because it transports you to a completely different world for a few minutes. From the deck, you’ll see hidden corners that the average tourist can’t reach on foot.

The Arch of the Judith Bridge

During the cruise, you’ll sail under the historic arch of Judith Bridge, the predecessor of Charles Bridge. It’s one of those things you can easily miss from the street without realizing what you’re looking at. But from the boat, it’s right above your head, and the guide will explain why it’s so special.

Judita, a Medieval Underground Harbor

The location from which you set sail is also part of the exceptional experience. The boat is moored in the unique medieval underground marina called Judita. This is no ordinary waterfront. It’s a piece of history that sets the tone for the entire cruise even before you set out on the water.

An explanation you'll understand

No matter where you’re from, you’ll receive free disposable headphones on board and can listen to the commentary in one of 19 languages. That way, you don’t have to worry about missing anything. You’ll know exactly what you’re looking at and the story behind it at all times.

And one more thing

The cruise is just the beginning. Every boat ticket includes free admission to the Charles Bridge Museum, where you’ll learn how this famous structure was built. During the cruise, we’ll also serve you Krakonoš, a Czech craft beer, and light refreshments. And since boats depart every 10 minutes and we’re open 365 days a year, you don’t have to plan far in advance. Just come on by.

45 Minutes That Are Well Worth It

In 45 minutes, you’ll see Charles Bridge from below, ride through the mysterious Čertovka, glide under the arch of Judith Bridge, and explore the medieval Judith Wharf. All of this comes with a guided tour that will help you understand the significance of each place. It’s an experience that will reveal more about Prague than a whole day of walking through crowded streets.
