BEFORE YOU GO · CAUTIONARY DETAILS
Distances are short, the standing is long
Two or three hours mostly on your feet on hard ground. Comfortable shoes matter more than fitness.
The route is public space
Markets, lanes and places of worship are where people live and pray. Ask before photographing anyone and cover up where others do.
Cash for the small things
Tea, a fritter, an entry ticket. Card acceptance in old quarters is patchy at best.
Ask what the group size will be
A walking tour of six and one of thirty are different products at the same price. It is a fair question.

Czechia done well. The itinerary had room to breathe. Worth every rupee.

Good mix of the obvious things and a few places we'd never have found. Would send friends their way.

Czechia done well. The itinerary had room to breathe. Hostel nights are basic but clean, and that's what the price says. The team read the group well and adjusted without making a thing of it. Worth every rupee.

Too much time on the coach and not enough at the places we'd come for. The team read the group well and adjusted without making a thing of it.

Thank you. We've taken the point about the transfer and are reviewing it.

Czechia done well. The itinerary had room to breathe. Hostel nights are basic but clean, and that's what the price says. Never went hungry, and the tea appeared exactly when it was needed. Solid operator.

Questions people ask

That one crosses four countries and gives Prague two nights. This stays in Czechia for eight days and spends half of them outside the city — the sandstone country on the German border and the south. Different trip entirely.
