We'll be kicking this trip off with Prague for 4 nights, a city that has become one of Europe’s most popular tourist destinations. You will absolutely love our hotel here, the Hotel Rott, located just steps from of the Old Towne and very elegant - completely worthy of all of it's 4-stars.
We’ll wander around Old Town Square with its many wonderful Gothic and baroque buildings. We’ll see the famous 15th-century astronomical clock at the Old Town Hall. Every hour, crowds assemble below to watch Christ and the twelve Apostles appear at two little windows above the clock face, followed by the skeleton of Death tolling the bell. In the evenings we’ll find some of Europe’s best jazz venues, excellent opera, and innovative theater.
Tours in Prague will include a full day on tour to two amazing places, one which is a World Heritage Site! We'll start off at Kutna Hora. The historic centre is one of the country's prettiest and the gothic cathedral of St Barbara arguably the country's most spectacular. Our second stop is to Cesky Sternberk, set on the steep stony bank of the Sázavar. Called the "Pearl of Posázaví" by a romantic poet [Posázaví is the region around the river], the castle was built in 1241 by Zdeslav of Divišov, and given the name "Šternberk" according to the custom of the day.
After our 4-nights in Prague we'lll bus to Vienna. Along the way we'll visit the amazing medieval town of Cesky Krumlov. This Unesco world heritage site is one of the most scenic towns you will ever visit. Vienna is known for their medieval streets and magnificent cathedrals and palaces, along with being home of some of the most famous composers including Mozart, Strauss and Tchaikovsky. Magnificent Hofburg Palace, Belvedere Palace, extensive gardens, museums, music, architecture, trendy clubs and restaurants are all waiting for us.
On our first full day we'll enjoy the Belvedere gardens - Schönbrunn Palace. We'll visit the Vienna Woods a very scenic area, to hear stories of "Singing Monks" or about the tragedy of Mayerling. We'll then visit the Abbey of Heiligenkreuz. a beautiful and living Cistercian monastery.
On our second day we'll take a full day tour with our bus plus a nice boat ride on the Danube to visit the beauty of the Wachau. The Danube winds his way past charming old villages and steep vineyards. We'll visit the Abbey of Melk and enjoy the former Imperial Rooms, the Marble Hall, the balcony and the library.
Finally, we'll take the hydrofoil from Vienna to Budapest.
On our first day we'll enjoy first a walking tour. This tour will take us to the Caste District, Gellért hill and Heroes' square. We will have the option to visit Matthias church as well. Then we'll get on our bus and visit the Central market and enjoy some free time for lunch there. From there we will go to the cave church which is very interesting and unique since the church is inside a natural cave. We will then go to the Parliament area and then St. Stephen Basilica.
On our second day we'll go on the "Bends of the Danube" tour. The tour goes along the river Danube to the north from the capital to the Danube Bend. The first stop is Esztergom which is the ecclesiastical centre of Hungary and has the largest Roman Catholic church of the country. After visiting this majestic building the tour goes on to Visegrad which used to be Royal Residence and where the ruins of a 13th century fortress can be found and you may enjoy a splendid panoramic view of the river Danube as well and get acquainted with the rich history. The last town is the charming, baroque artists' village of Szentendre which has a very special architecture and atmosphere due the great number of Serbian refuges settling here in the 17th century.
