Day 1: Arrive in Berlin and settle into Mitte
12m walk
1
Berlin Friedrichstraße — city arrival reference
Add your actual arrival airport or station and ground transfer.
Reach your hotel, leave your bags, and take a short neighborhood walk. The template uses Friedrichstraße as a central arrival reference, followed by the Spree nearby. Have dinner close to your accommodation. A first night that ends early is useful preparation for the more substantial historical visits ahead.
Add your actual airport or station transfer; the central pin is not an airport connection.

Day 2: The government quarter and a reflective afternoon
25m transit
1
Reichstag exterior
Start around the Reichstag exterior and Brandenburg Gate, then spend unhurried time at the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe. These are places to pause, not a quick sightseeing circuit. Leave the afternoon for lunch and a short Tiergarten walk. A confirmed Reichstag dome slot can fit into this day by replacing some park time.
Dome and roof-terrace access require advance registration. The exterior route works without it.

Day 3: Understand the Berlin Wall at Bernauer Straße
30m transit
1
Berlin Wall Memorial — Bernauer Straße
Give the Berlin Wall Memorial the morning, using the official site map to connect the preserved border landscape with the interpretation that interests you. A single surviving fragment cannot explain the whole story. After lunch, continue toward Prenzlauer Berg for a quieter afternoon around Kollwitzplatz. Keep the evening free instead of crossing Berlin for another major attraction.
Check the visitor and documentation buildings separately; an outdoor memorial walk and an indoor exhibition have different access needs.

Day 4: One Museum Island visit, then room to wander
25m transit

Neues Museum — James-Simon-Galerie entrance
Confirm the entrance and dated ticket. Normally closed Mondays; sample dates place this on Thursday. Swap days for closures.
Make the Neues Museum your main visit and follow its current entrance instructions. Allow the morning for the collection rather than booking another museum immediately afterward. Eat nearby, walk through the Lustgarten, and spend the afternoon around Hackescher Markt. If archaeology is not your interest, substitute one museum you actually want to visit and keep the same relaxed structure.

Day 5: Take the train to Prague
30m transit
1
Berlin Hauptbahnhof
Travel from Berlin Hauptbahnhof using the service on your ticket. Check the Prague station carefully: Praha hlavní nádraží and Praha-Holešovice are different arrival points. The template uses the main station as a replaceable reference. Once in Prague, go to your accommodation and have dinner nearby. Save the castle and bridge for the two full days that follow.
The template includes a generous rail planning allowance, not a guaranteed service duration. Replace it with your dated connection.
Travel time is a planning allowance, not a published timetable; confirm your booked service and add check-in or queue time.

Day 6: Prague Castle and Malá Strana
35m transit
1
Prague Castle
Check the current ticket circuit, access, bag rules, and entrance. Use transit for the uphill approach.
Reach the castle area in the morning and make the visit your main commitment. Choose the current circuit that covers the interiors you want, then take a long lunch. Continue down toward Malá Strana and Malostranské náměstí, with time for the smaller streets. The downhill finish is intentional; you do not need to climb back for another timed visit.
Check operational restrictions, bag rules, and your route uphill. Use transit for the approach if a steep walk does not suit you.

25m transit

Charles Bridge — Malá Strana end
Start on the Malá Strana side of Charles Bridge and cross toward the old town. Continue to Old Town Square, then give the afternoon to Josefov’s streets and a café. This schedule covers the neighborhood exteriors. If the Jewish Museum is important to you, reserve a substantial part of the day for its sites and reduce the wandering, checking the religious calendar and current admission first.
An early bridge walk can make the morning feel calmer, but the rest of the day does not need an early start.

Praha hlavní nádraží — onward reference
Replace with your booked departure station or airport and add the correct transfer and buffer.
Have breakfast, collect your bags, and use the departure transfer you have checked for your flight or train. The template ends at the main station as an onward-travel reference. Replace it if you are flying. Keep a final café visit close to the hotel rather than making one last cross-city expedition.
