What shall I see

During this day-long tour you will visit two unique gems among the castles of the Czech Republic, both located just outside of Prague. First we will visit the Konopiště Castle, situated some 45 km from Prague. The castle was founded in the 13th century and is well renowned for its fascinating collection of antique weaponry and furniture. After this stop, we will continue westwards to the historical Karlštejn Castle. In the 14th century Charles IV, King of Bohemia and Holy Roman Emperor, had this gothic monument built as a depository for the Empire crown jewels and relics of the saints. It boasts incomparable history and breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside.

The trip was excellent, hotel pick up and drop was on time. We were only two people on the trip , our Guide Lenka and driver Lucas was very helpful and knowledgeable.

This tour is just amazing. We were picked up sharp on time. The Van was perfect an new. After picking some people from other hotels we spent some 20 minutes in Wenceslas square. I was amazed by the punctuality of the agency. Right on time came Eva, our guide. For some reason I can't explain my wife and I were the only persons in this tour, so we got a private tour and Eva made sure we felt like that exactly. We headed up to Konopiste castle first. The scenary is breathtaking. The castle an historic value of the place is priceless. We spent time wandering around and the we went inside. This is a very local destination. Not a lot of foreign tourists, so again we had a private tour inside the castle as we were the only people for the tour in English. Our guide was really amazing and the castle's collection is awesome. We finished our visit with a view of the gardens and took our Van to Karlstejn. The road itself is beautiful. We arrived at Karlstejn and started our way to the castle. It is a good uphill walk but definitely worth every step. The town is gorgeous! We stopped for lunch at a local restaurant where the food is great (included in the tour price, except for beverages). After lunch we went to visit the castle. There are no words to describe this place. Makes you go back in time. The surroundings are breathtaking and the castle itself is a jewel. The inside tour is good, but the view from the outside was the highlight of this tour. We went back to prague enjoying Eva's information and beautiful Czech scenery. Overall a great tour. I would definitely recommend it to anyone. So if you plan to visit prague, make sure to make room for this one.

Beautiful scenery and wonderful tour, our guide told us all about the history and legends and showed us both castles which were amazing, truly the gems of history. The furniture, the antiquities, the hidden stories the walls tell you were a beautiful journey back in time. Thank you for the lovely tour. Would recommend.
