Private cruises to Čertovka

Cruise description

Čertovka is a hidden corner of Prague that bigger boats simply can't reach — a narrow arm of the Vltava between houses that rise straight from the water. People call it the Venice of Prague, and you can even hear the clatter of an old mill wheel here.

We sail with smaller eco-friendly boats — Elvíra, Horymír, Mistr Jan Hus and the solar-powered Elektronemo. No engine, no rush, just still water and centuries-old houses overhead. A side of Prague you'll never see from the riverbank.

Route and what you'll see

We depart from Čech Bridge, a five-minute walk from the Old Town Square. The cruise passes under Charles Bridge and slips into the narrow arm of Čertovka with its old mill wheel.
