Tour Description
Cesky Krumlov is some 170km away from Prague, and an early departure is critical to get as much of the day as possible. We’ll arrive ideally before the tour busses arrive and take you on a 90 min walking tour to show you in and outs of this beautiful town. We zig-zag the historic centre passing the St.Vitus Church, Schiele Centre, Eggenberg brewery, ending up the tour at Cesky Krumlov Castle. Your guide will help you get on one of the 3 guided tours, including the Baroq Theatre, or follow you back to town, if you prefer to take a closer look on the historical sites on your own, or just feel like wandering up and down the crooked streets of Krumlov. We leave back to Prague after the last busses left.
