The Czech Republic Your Way

Couples
 
There are few countries that do old-world romance like the Czech Republic. Spoil your sweetheart at one of Bohemia’s many world-renowned spas, like Karlovy Vary, where visitors soak in medicinal waters that have coursed naturally through the ground for generations. Once you’ve relaxed to your heart’s content, a cosy trip for two to Znojmo is in order. Share a bottle of their famous wine, and a few of the local pickles. They’re the best in the country and maybe the world!
Family Vacations
 
What kid doesn’t dream of seeing a real live castle? There is no shortage of them in the Czech Republic. Castle Karlštejn even comes complete with moats and towers from which to pour boiling tar on the heads of invading armies! Kutná Hora is another destination sure to capture your family’s imagination. After a visit to the famous “bone church”, you can take a tour of the city’s silver mines, six stories below ground.
Travelling With Friends
 
Easily the Czech Republic’s top attraction, Prague is not to be missed. The city of a “hundred spires,” with its magnificent monuments, burgher houses, cathedrals and palaces, is deservedly world-famous. Just remember that the rest of the country is rich with beauty and history too.
