These Local Picks aren't pulled from some algorithm or paid promotions. Our Prague Local Expert team, residents who know the city inside and out, hand-select each experience. We focus on places and activities that locals actually enjoy, from quiet cafes in Vršovice to early morning walks along the Vltava.
You won't find cliché recommendations here, just real advice you can trust. For example, instead of the usual Old Town spots, try visiting the Letná beer gardens in autumn for a great view without the crowds. Every season in Prague gives you a different story, and our picks reflect that. We update regularly to keep things fresh and relevant for both new and returning visitors.

If you want a low-key way to enjoy Prague, try heading to Vyšehrad on a sunny weekend. Most visitors stick to Prague Castle but Vyšehrad offers beautiful river views, spacious parks, and historic ruins that locals love for picnics or a relaxed stroll. Grab a pastry from a nearby bakery in Nusle before you go. The walk along the river from Náplavka back to the city at sunset is peaceful and shows a side of Prague many tourists miss.
