Prague, Kutná Hora & Karlštejn
Based in Prague, spend two days exploring the Old Town and Castle, and two days taking train trips to a World Heritage site and an ancient castle.
Stay in Prague for the entire trip without changing hotels—perfect for first-time visitors to the Czech Republic with limited time. Spend the first two days exploring the Old Town and Castle District on foot. On the third day, take a day trip to Kutná Hora to see the Sedlec Ossuary and St. Barbara's Cathedral. On the morning of the fourth day, visit Karlštejn Castle before departing. Český Krumlov is omitted due to the distance.
Karlštejn Castle is closed on Mondays; opening days and guided tour slots are reduced in winter.
