Iconic Landmarks Explore Prague’s rich history while venturing to Kutna Hora, Terezin, and Karlovy Vary on this independent journey packed with culture, history, and scenic beauty.Trip Overview:This 5-day Prague trip is packed with excursions to the neighbouring towns, returning each night to the romantic City of Spires.
The cultural heart of Bohemia, Prague can seem both part of, and entirely separate from the rest of Europe. If this is your first visit, take a few extra days to explore the Old Jewish Quarter, Prague Castle and St Vitus Cathedral, the Old Town Square and Astronomical Clock, or Wenceslas Square to learn about Prague’s emerging role in today’s Europe.
Your first trip takes you to Kutna Hora, a former silver mining town with several must-see sights. The St Barbara Cathedral looms over the valley in all its gothic splendour, while the former royal mint is a reminder of the town’s former wealth and influence. Its most famous attraction however is the eerie Sedlec Ossuary. This medieval chapel contains the remains of thousands of people, arranged into complex decorative formations, including coats of arms, crosses, and even a chandelier.
Terezin is a sobering day trip north of Prague. A former stronghold against northern invasion, the town became a place of horrors during Nazi occupation. You’ll take a walking tour of the former Nazi ghetto and concentration camp, with time for reflection on this modern tragedy in Czech history.
Your last full day takes you to Karlovy Vary (Carlsbad), nestled in a scenic forested valley, is famous for its 12 thermal springs. Visit the MOSER glass exhibition, then stroll through the city’s spa colonnades, where you can taste the mineral waters, local wafers, and the traditional Becherovka liqueur before returning to Prague.
