We love to explore new cities by sightseeing together, so I am sharing my favourite sights of Prague here:

Explore the modern architecture of the Dancing House, an abstract masterpiece with a unique design. Don’t forget to visit the rooftop restaurant for a romantic meal with a view.
Charles Bridge
Stroll hand-in-hand across the iconic Charles Bridge. This historic bridge offers magnificent views of the Vltava River and the picturesque Prague Castle in the background.

After having explored the magical sights of Prague together, it is time to turn up the romance even more with these couple activities!
River Cruise
Enjoy a romantic cruise along the Vltava River, where you can admire Prague’s beautiful skyline from a unique perspective. Many operators offer dinner cruises, making it a perfect evening activity.
Beer Spa
Experience the ultimate relaxation at a beer spa. Couples can soak in beer baths while sipping on local brews, providing a unique and rejuvenating experience. Some beer spas also offer a wine option if that’s what you prefer.
Traditional Dinner Show
Immerse yourselves in Czech culture by attending a traditional dinner show. Enjoy a delicious meal while watching captivating folk dance performances and live music.
Food Tasting
Indulge in a culinary journey through Prague by participating in a food tasting tour. Explore local markets, taste traditional Czech dishes, and savour delicious pastries and desserts.
Czech Beer Tasting
For beer enthusiasts, Prague is a beer lover’s paradise. Embark on a beer tasting tour, where you can sample a variety of Czech beers and learn about the country’s rich brewing history.
Ballet Show or Classical Concert
Enjoy an evening of sophistication with a ballet show or a classical concert. Prague offers numerous venues where you can relish the beauty of fine arts and music.
Add to your bucket list:
December Activities
Prague is beautiful all year around, but it’s just a little bit more magical during the festive season. Make the most of it by enjoying these festive activities together.
Christmas Markets
If you visit Prague during December, be sure to explore the magical Christmas markets. Sip on warm mulled wine, shop for unique gifts, and soak up the festive atmosphere.

New Year's Eve
Prague hosts a magnificent New Year’s Eve celebration. Join the lively street parties, watch fireworks over the Charles Bridge, and share a midnight kiss with your loved one.
Although it is free to watch the fireworks from Charles Bridge, it can get a bit rowdy with people in the streets being allowed to light their own fireworks. If you’re scared of people throwing fireworks around, then I highly recommend watching the fireworks from the safety and comfort of a New Year’s Eve cruise.
What better way to celebrate the New Year together than by a dancing the night away together? We sure had a blast at the iconic Karlovy Lazne’s 5 story nightclub at New Year’s Eve. Each floor has its own music style, so it’s like having 5 different parties under one roof. Avoid the long queues to get inside Karlovy Lazne by joining a New Year’s Eve pub crawl.
Day Trips from Prague
Prague can be seen in just a few days, so if you have some extra time to escape the city, I highly recommend these day trips:
Cesky Krumlov
Take a day trip to Cesky Krumlov, a fairytale-like town with a UNESCO-listed historic center. Explore the impressive castle, winding streets, and picturesque riverside.
If you’re not renting a car during your Prague city trip, you can get to Cesky Krumlov by a private tour or group tour.
Karlovy Vary
Discover the spa town of Karlovy Vary, known for its healing mineral springs. Enjoy a relaxing day, and don’t forget to taste the local herbal liqueur, Becherovka.
Kutna Hora
Explore the charming town of Kutna Hora, home to the mesmerizing Sedlec Ossuary, or “Bone Church,” adorned with human bone decorations. Visit the historic center and its stunning Gothic architecture.
