5-day tour
Day 1: Arrival in Prague
You’ll arrive in Prague in the afternoon and be welcomed by your guide. After dinner at your hotel. the city will certainly inspire you to look around and perhaps explore the picturesque lanes of the Old Town or the Lesser Town. Try visiting one of the many Art Nouveau cafés or pubs off Wenceslas Square.
Day 2: Prague
In the morning you’ll see the city’s sights by coach and on foot: Prague Castle at Hradèany, for example, including the Theresa wing, reopened after 55 years, the Loreto Church, St Vitus’s Cathedral, the Lesser Town’s picturesque Neruda Street and the Old Town Square with its astronomical apostles’ clock. The afternoon’s free and in the evening we’ll offer you one of the many entertainments listed under Additional Services.
Day 3: Prague – Dresden
After breakfast you’ll travel to Dresden, crossing the border at Cínovec (Zinnwald). Your stay will begin with sightseeing at the world-famous Semper opera house (although you won’t be able to see a rehearsal!). Then after more sightseeing you’ll be taken to your hotel for dinner and stay there overnight.
Day 4: Dresden, the River Elbe’s Florence
In the morning you’ll go on a guided tour of the city and see the most important sights which Dresden has to offer, including its remarkable Theatre Square, the Zwinger (famous as a unique example of masterly Baroque), the Cathedral (previously a courtly Catholic church) and the Zwinger, once used as residence. You’ll still have time to explore Dresden by yourself. At the end of the day you’ll have the chance to eat a typically Saxon meal in a typically Saxon restaurant - for example, Sophia’s Cellar.
