The goal of this project was to address overcrowding at popular tourist destinations in Prague by developing a walking tour of an authentic, less-frequented Czech community. To discover the criteria and scope of walking tours, we observed commercial walking tours, interviewed tour guides, and tour companies. To discover what areas of Prague are often missed by tourists, the team also interviewed members of the local community. From this research, the team designed and published a self-guided walking tour of the New Town and Vinohrady neighborhoods aimed towards solo travelers staying in Prague for an extended time.
