Boat Trip to the Prague Zoo & Ticket
Tour Details
The tour starts at the Rašín Pier in the city centre. There, you’ll board a boat to sail downstream towards the north. All aboard!
During the cruise, you’ll pass through the Smíchov locks and sail under the iconic Charles Bridge. From the deck, you can admire the views of Prague Castle, Kampa Island, the Letná Gardens and the famous Metronome. On board, you’ll have an audio guide in English so you don’t miss any details of the sights you’ll see.
After leaving the hustle and bustle of the city centre behind, the boat will take you along the lesser-known banks of Holešovice and Libeň, passing under the avant-garde Troja Bridge before disembarking on Císařský Island. From there, it's just a few minutes’ walk to the zoo entrance.
