Prague: E-Bike Tour Old Town, Castle & Letná Park Views

Summary

Ride through Prague’s stories from Lennon Wall to castle courtyards

You’ll ride an e-bike through Prague’s tangled streets and riverside paths with a local guide who knows every shortcut and story. Expect moments of laughter near Lennon Wall, secret castle corners you’d miss alone, and views over red rooftops from Letná Park—all with gear provided and no need to race uphill.

What’s the experience like?

I nearly toppled off my e-bike right in front of the John Lennon Wall — which, by the way, is even brighter and more chaotic than I expected. Our guide, Martin, just grinned and told me not to worry, “It happens to everyone the first time.” The wall’s layers of paint smelled faintly sweet in the sun, and someone was strumming Beatles songs nearby. I felt oddly at ease after that — like Prague wasn’t judging me for being clumsy or for not knowing much Czech history yet.

We zipped through Malá Strana’s narrow lanes (I lost count of how many times cobblestones rattled my teeth) and paused by Charles Bridge — not on it, since it’s always packed, but at this quiet spot where you can actually see the old stones without a crowd blocking your view. Martin pulled out some faded photos of the bridge during floods and protests; he had this way of making centuries-old drama sound like gossip you’d overhear in a café. There was a moment up by Letná Park where we looked out over the city — red roofs everywhere, trams gliding below — and I swear I could smell hops from some distant brewery. Maybe I imagined that part.

The e-bikes did most of the heavy work up to Prague Castle (thank god), so nobody was too breathless to listen as we wandered those hidden courtyards. We ducked into St. Vitus Cathedral when it was open; sunlight made rainbows on the stone floor. Martin pointed out little things — a worn statue here, an odd gargoyle there — stuff most people would walk right past. By the time we coasted down Petřín hill past wildflowers and locals walking dogs, my legs felt loose but my head was buzzing with stories.

I still think about that view from Letná Park — all those bridges crossing the Vltava like ribbons. If you’re worried about keeping up: don’t be. The e-bikes are forgiving (even if you’re not a cyclist), and Martin never rushed anyone. Honestly, I didn’t expect to laugh so much or feel so much part of Prague for a few hours. That feeling lingers longer than any photo.
