5.00It was a wonderful daytrip that we took with my friends. We were like in a private tour since it was only us on tour . We started early , went first to Bastei, it was really scenic and beautiful. Then had our lunch at Pirna, a quiant town and the food was sumptous which was included in our tour. Our guide Ondej, even gave us also a tour there after lunch. Then in the afternoon , we went to explore Dresden. Our guide ( ondrej) was really knowledgeable and helpful that made our trip one to remember.
Great day trip from Prague!
