Description

From Prague: Karlovy Vary and Loket Excursion (Optional Castle)

Explore two of the most fascinating destinations in West Bohemia on this full-day excursion from Prague. Discover the elegance of Karlovy Vary, one of the most famous spa towns in Europe and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and delve into medieval history with a visit to the medieval town of Loket. You'll start the day in Karlovy Vary, known for its spa waters and refined architecture. Accompanied by a tour guide, you'll stroll through its iconic colonnades and along the riverside promenades, discovering the history of this city founded in the time of Charles IV. During the tour, you'll see its most famous fountains and be able to taste its mineral waters in keeping with local tradition. You'll also visit iconic locations that have served as the backdrop for films such as Casino Royale, adding a special appeal to the experience. After the guided visit, you'll enjoy free time to have lunch, explore at your leisure, or relax in one of its historic cafes. In the afternoon, you'll head to Loket, a charming medieval village surrounded by a spectacular meander of the Ohře River. Stroll through its cobblestone streets and be captivated by its history and idyllic surroundings. If you choose the option with castle admission, you can also visit this impressive medieval fortress at your own pace, touring its historic rooms, exhibitions, and the former prison. Finally, you'll return to Prague after a full day that combines history, architecture, cinema, and nature, offering a unique experience beyond the Czech capital.

No lo recomiendo. Mezclan excursión en inglés y en español, la guía explica las cosas dos veces y en español lo resume un montón y se pierde información. Te dicen al llegar allí que puedes irte ya por tu cuenta si quieres, si te quedas con la guía no espera a nadie y vas corriendo a todos lados sin enterarte de nada. Dejan 2h libres para comer por tu cuenta, nosotros decidimos subir al mirador y por poco no llegamos luego. Falta muchísimo tiempo, explicaciones bien dadas y tranquilidad. Si compras el funicular especifica claramente que quieres subida y bajada, si no te venden solo subida y luego no puedes bajar y si bajas andando te pierdes por el monte. La visita al castillo de locker muy simple, está chulo pero demasiadas cosas para ver y poco tiempo. El agua de las fuentes sabe fatal y quema.

Isard was sooo fantastic! Knowledgeable, helpful, clever, and he had such a good balance of explaining the culture and history without being boring or taking too long. We thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this trip. Highly recommend!

Buen tour, lo único negativo es que no dió tiempo a comer, hay tanto turista que los restaurantes no son ágiles a la hora de servir cuando hay mucho público
