Beautiful but Prague has much more to see

4.00It was a beautiful example of a 12th century town, but we only had 2 days in Prague and 1 of those days was spent at Cesky Kumlov. There was a lot of Prague we were not able to see as a result of not enough time.
Perfect Day Out!

5.00We took a day trip to Cesky Krumlov and had an amazing experience! Our guide, Johanka, was fantastic! Super funny, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. She really added to the whole day with her stories and insights, and she was so accommodating and helpful throughout the trip. Cesky Krumlov itself is absolutely beautiful, truly like stepping into a fairytale. Wandering through the charming streets and enjoying the delicious local food made the day even more special. I highly recommend visiting!

5.00Interesting and charming day trip from Prague. It was a drizzly day and our guide took good care of us.
Beautiful way see Cesky Krumlov

4.00It was a very enjoyable experience. We were given an amazing tour and our guide was very knowledgeable. Great way to see the city. The sites were beautiful. The fall colors were nothing like I’ve seen. The only thing that was confusing and a bit uncomfortable was our lunch break and free time. I didn’t expect our guide to eat lunch with us. We were ready for some free time and our tour resumed after we ate lunch and thus we were only allowed about an hour for free time. But our guide picked us up promptly and dropped us at our hotel after the tour which was a plus.
A Must Do Tour!!

5.00We booked a private tour to Cesky Krumlov and had the pleasure of Misa, the owner, as our tour guide. She was amazing and we couldn’t have asked for a better day touring a gorgeous city. I am so glad we added on this day tour. Misa, thank you again for helping us book three tours and being so patient with all of our questions and helping our family and friends have such a memorable trip in Prague and Cesky Krumlov. The kids loved the raft tour and being able to play on a playground for a bit which I know wasn’t a normal request! You and your team are truly best in the business and we cannot wait to come back to Prague to do more tours with you!
