“The trip packed in 3 different beautiful nature sites-the first was a lovely hike to see the second largest natural arch bridge in the world. The second was a shorter trip to see beautiful rock formations-a scenic stone bridge with views of rock formations and the river Elbe. The third place was a short drive to an exquisite and breath taking snowy wonderland with ice crystals on the tree and rock formations you could climb around-Narnia winter scenes filmed there. And I had a great lunch with delicious fish and vegetables-other choices available. Our guide, Andre was happy, energetic, gave a lively and informative talk in the car. He also…”

“Brilliant day trip - I’m so glad we picked this rather than one that just went to the national park as this was the perfect blend of Czech history and nature/walking. Pete was an incredible guide, full of knowledge, passion and energy. He had everything we needed including water, snacks and umbrellas!

10.2 Countries Bohemian and Saxon Switzerland tour from Prague

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 221 reviews · 10 to 11 hours (approx.) · from $157

Travel from Prague in a Mercedes van with up to six other people, crossing into Germany for Bastei Bridge before exploring Czechia’s Bohemian Switzerland. Expect sandstone cliffs, steep paths, a local lunch, and seasonal access to Pravčická Gate and Edmund Gorge. Guides such as Ondřej and Vojta add history, humor, and useful trail advice.

“While the organization, communication/coordination, etc. leading up to the trip was quite well managed, the description can be a bit misleading, as neither Pravicka Gate nor boat ride was part of the tour! Lunch was also offered as an afterthought, especially if you're after veg/vegan options (which are a bit slim in most restaurants en route). However, I really enjoyed my conversations with Ondřej and his enthusiasm through the day was well appreciated :)”
