Excursion «Prague Castle - the residence of Czech kings» - 4 hour walking tour with English speaking guide
 We
begin our tour to the grand structure known the world over as Prague
Castle and the towering Gothic cathedral of Saint Vitus. Situated high
above the Vltava River, the resplendent Prague Castle served for
centuries as the residence of emperors and Czech kings; today the
President of the Czech Republic calls it home. Within the castle’s
monumental walls lies legendary Golden Lane, a miniscule alley lined
with tiny cottages, where medieval alchemists labored to uncover the
ancient secret of the philosopher’s stone…
Romantic dinner in the elegant restaurant "AT THE THREE VIOLONS" The
building “At the Three Violins” acquired its house sign when it was the
home of a family of violinists around 1700. Four centuries ago, the
great master Tomas Edlinger was making his musical instruments here.
Today, it hosts an elegant & cozy restaurant with wide-ranging menu
offering dishes from Czech & International cuisine. Classical
music, romantic atmosphere & a friendly service makes this a
comfortable place to enjoy the beautiful evening for two. - Aperitif Kir-Royal - Tartare salmon steak on tuna carpaccio, served with rukola salad leaves & toasts - Lamb cotlets with spinach & baked potatoes - Creme-Caramel on the pineapple carpaccio with hot cognac sauce - 1 bottle of red wine - 1 bottle of mineral water - Espresso 19:00 - Visit to the National Theatre.

The
monumental National Theatre, on the banks of the Vltava River at the
western end of Narodni Street, is the pride of the Czech nation.
Architect Joseph Zitek designed the impressive edifice, and the
interior artwork, sculptures and ornamentation are a veritable roll
call of the Czech artists of the National Revival, all of whom donated
their work. The standing repertoire includes classic Czech operas such
as Bedrich Smetana’s The Bartered Bride, and Rusalka by Antonin Dvorak.
