Main Railway Station

Cafe Slavia

Check in at the Hotel Adante.  The rate is approximately $70.  One of the least expensive in the center of Prague.  Everything in the Stare Mesto (Old Town) is in walking distance.  Then walk over to the Cafe Slavia for top quality Eastern European Cuisine.  It is a cafe with a somewhat limited menu, but great food. 

Then get a good night's sleep.  You are taking the walking tour in the morning.

If you go to bed between 10 and 11pm you should be able to break the jet lag.  Wake up around 7 am and take the First Visit to Prague Walking Tour.  You will really feel like an Insider, because the Cafe Slavia is on the cafe tour.  Impress the other guests with your review and menu suggestions. 

Once you get an idea where everything is, you can start planning other things to see.  Be sure to take time to just relax and people watch.

Also a must see is the Prague Castle, the Hrad.  

Prague Castle tours continue to the Royal Palace, the historic home of the royal family. The palace is home to a permanent exhibition detailing the history of Prague Castle and is still used for special state events. Entrance to the museum is included in the price of a Prague Castle tours ticket or can be purchased separately for about $6 each.
