About this walk

Brno meets its history with a smirk. A stone figure bares its backside at a rival cathedral, a stuffed "dragon" hangs in the town hall gate, the cathedral bells ring noon an hour early to mock a beaten army, and the city's modern monuments get nicknames far ruder than the council intended. This self-guided walking tour traces that deadpan defiance through the essential old town. Everything runs from your phone. You get a clear map of all 8 stops, simple directions through Google Maps, and a short audio story with an interactive quiz at each location. The route runs from the twin-spired Cathedral of St Peter and Paul on Petrov Hill up through the Cabbage Market and its Baroque fountain, the Old Town Hall with its dragon and crooked gate, Freedom Square and its astronomical clock, to the hilltop fortress of Špilberk Castle. Start anytime, pause whenever you like, and explore freely. No groups, no schedules. Audio and text available in 7 languages. And it comes with a free eSIM, redeemable once per account, so your map, directions and audio work from the moment you arrive, with no roaming charges.

  • Fabulous walking tour around the main areas of Dubrovnik old city.we were able to stop and listen as many times as we needed as there was also written information too

  • A great way to discover the hidden gems in Sorrento. It provides history, cultural context and a flavour of the place. We would have missed so much had we wandered round without this valuable guide. Thank you for the research and information.
