“We absolutely loved this trip! At first, we were a little nervous about whether we could manage the hike, but it turned out to be very doable. Our guide, Anna, was amazing — she took care of every little detail and made sure no one was ever left behind. She spent time talking with everyone, and it was so easy and pleasant to communicate with her. Anna also recommended us a brilliant restaurant (Pivovar Strahov) and it was one of better meals we had in Prague. The driver, Martin, was also very helpful and an excellent driver. Overall, it was a wonderful experience!”
A 10-hour day trip from Prague to UNESCO Český Krumlov and baroque České Budějovice, with a guided castle visit and optional lunch.
“The trip and tour was fantastic. Both Guides/Drivers were friendly, knowledgeable and extremely helpful for all of our questions and needs. The Cesky Krumlov visit was our very favorite place of our entire 3 week visit to 8 European countries. The Guides not only provided fantastic information at the destinations but continually informed us and provided info on the drives to and from the main sites we were visiting. Very interesting and beneficial to us. Highly recommended!”
Train day trip from Prague to UNESCO Kutná Hora, guided visits to Sedlec Bone Church and St Barbara’s Cathedral, transport included.
