Tour catalog
Day trips from Prague
Pick a destination. Tours leave Prague in a van, in English and Russian. Prices are per person.
How to choose
Half day, full day, or across the border
Most guests stay in Prague for three to five days, which is enough for one or two days outside the city without turning the trip into a marathon. These three shapes cover almost every itinerary.
4 to 5 hours
Half day
Karlštejn. Leave after breakfast, be back in Prague for a late lunch or a rest before dinner. Ideal with small children, after a night flight, or paired with an evening in the city.
8 to 10 hours
Full day
Český Krumlov, Karlovy Vary, or Bohemian Paradise. Out of Prague in the morning, back towards evening, with coffee, views and food along the way. Usually the day people remember.
Long day
Across the border
Dresden sits ninety minutes to two hours from Prague. One day and you are in a different art collection, a different architecture and a different country, with no packing and no hotel change.

The shape of a day
From hotel pickup to the evening drop-off
No two days are identical, but the skeleton is the same. Here is what a typical tour day looks like, so you know what you are booking.
- 01
08:00 to 09:00
Hotel pickup
You set the hour. Haim waits at the hotel or apartment entrance, helps with bags and explains how the day fits together. If someone needs coffee before conversation, that is completely fine.
- 02
On the road
A view or a coffee stop
Most drives pass something worth five minutes: a river overlook, a village church, a field of sunflowers in summer. These are the stops no fixed itinerary includes.
- 03
Late morning
Arrive at the destination
We arrive before the big coaches. Haim parks, walks you to the main points and gives the context: who built it, why, and what happened here in the twentieth century.
- 04
Lunch
Local food, no surprises
A place he eats at himself, with a readable menu and prices that are not aimed at tourists. Vegetarian, kosher-style or gluten-free: say it in advance and it gets sorted.
- 05
Afternoon
Free time at your pace
An hour or two of your own: small shopping, ice cream, a view tower, or simply sitting in the square. The car waits, which means you are not locked into a coach schedule.
- 06
Early evening
Back to Prague
Straight to the hotel or any point in the city. If the children fell asleep and the adults still want dinner, we can drop them first and close the day calmly.
When to go
One country, four seasons
The most common question before booking is what is worth seeing in this particular season. Here is the short version.
April to June
Spring
Gardens open, castles return to full hours, and queues are still reasonable. April can be wet, so an extra layer and a small umbrella earn their space in the bag.
July to August
Summer
Long days: leave at eight, come back in daylight. Krumlov and Prague's Old Town are crowded around midday, so we start early and reach the destination before the coaches.
September to October
Autumn
The most comfortable season for a day trip. Cool air, strong colour in Bohemian Paradise and South Bohemia, and noticeably fewer people at every site.
November to March
Winter
Christmas markets in Prague and Dresden, steam rising off the colonnade in Karlovy Vary. Some castles close or move to short hours, so the route is planned around that in advance.

Day tour questions
What does it cost?
Prices are per person. Tickets and food are not included. Český Krumlov €60, Karlovy Vary €55, Dresden & the Bastei €55, Karlštejn & Velká Amerika €40, Kokořín & the Devil's Heads €45, Bohemian Paradise €65, Hřensko €65. Prague Castle and Kutná Hora: price on WhatsApp.
Is this a bus tour?
No. Tours run in a van, with a Hebrew-speaking driver-guide, not a tourist coach.
How far ahead should we book?
In summer, around holidays and on long weekends days fill up weeks ahead. If your dates are close, still ask: days do open up.
What happens if it rains?
We go. Rain is not a reason to cancel. There are indoor stops and coffee along the way while a shower passes.
Can we combine two destinations in one day?
Sometimes, but it is rarely worth it. Karlštejn and Kutná Hora lie in opposite directions from Prague, so combining them mostly adds hours in the car. One destination with real time is usually better.
Who arranges castle entry?
Some castles sell timed tours in fixed groups. Tell us what interests you and the day is planned around a slot that works. The ticket itself is paid on site.
How is it confirmed and paid?
Write on WhatsApp or through the form. The per-person price is on each destination. Online checkout will be added later.
