FAQ

When is the best time to start the tour?

You can choose the date of your trip from our list of guided tours, which have been selected with regards to certain highlights in individual locations.

If you decide for the self-guided tour, you can start your trip any time between the end of April to the beginning of October. April and October can still be chilly months in the Czech Republic (10 - 15 degrees), so make sure you bring with you appropriate clothing for the time of your stay. To make your self-guided tour even more special, you can choose the dates of your trip considering the highlights.

Where does the trip start?

Once you decide which dates are the most suitable for you, we can organize pick up from Prague, either from a hotel or the airport upon agreement. This is where the trip generally begins. We strongly recommend for overseas travelers to stay in Prague for at least one night to overcome the jet lag and start the trip the following day, so they are refreshed and relaxed for upcoming adventure. Our agency can reserve a hotel in Prague for you for a fee. After the tour finishes, we transport our clients back to Prague, where the trip ends. A standard trip can be extended by a few extra days in Prague if you are interested.

The cost of transportation ( airfare ) to/from Prague from/to your home is not included in the price. Trips can be started and/or end in Vienna ( A ) or Linz ( A ) upon agreement.
