Tour 17 - Comfortable sightseeing transfer from Prague to Vilshofen with a sightseeing tour in Cesky Krumlov for 4 hours
Stopping in Cesky Krumlov, the South Bohemian jewel, will allow you to split your trip from Prague to Vilshofen into two shorter ones and see more of the Czech countryside.
Cesky Krumlov is a UNESCO World Heritage site and packed with things to see during your 4-hour stop. Since the town is not very big, you will be able to see a good chunk of it during the allotted time. The small size of Cesky Krumlov makes it the perfect daytrip for many tourists visiting from Prague.
The main attractions of Cesky Krumlov are its castle, the Cesky Krumlov Castle, the charming Old Town, and the still standing Budweiser Gate. You can easily see all of them during your 4-hour stop.
Passengers are free to explore Cesky Krumlov on their own while their bags are safely stored in the car and looked after by the driver. If you prefer to have a guide with you, it is possible for us to arrange a private tour with an English-speaking guide for an extra fee. This tour has a minimum 2-hour duration.
If you have already been to Cesky Krumlov, or do not want to stay for the full duration of the stop there, it is also possible to spend your 4 hours at other locations on the way, such as Ceske Budejovice, Holasovice, Pisek or Hluboka and Vltavou. Likewise, it is possible to extend the duration of your stop in Cesky Krumlov for an additional fee.
What to visit in Cesky Krumlov
Cesky Krumlov Castle
Although the Cesky Krumlov Castle is one of the largest castles in the world, it is only the second largest castle in the Czech Republic. You can take a tour of the castle and climb up its tower for an amazing view of Cesky Krumlov, the Vltava river and the surrounding countryside.
Church of St. Vitus
The church of St. Vitus overlooks Cesky Krumlov and is located right next to the Cesky Krumlov Castle. This 14th century Gothic church has been excellently preserved and houses original frescoes and other paintings.
Latran
Although you can not go wrong when visiting the Old Town, Latran has a special something that distinguishes it from the rest. The buildings here have been well maintained throughout the years and will make you feel like you have gone back in time to a more medieval era.
Budweiser Gate
Although Cesky Krumlov had 9 gates built into its fortifications, the Budweiser Gate is the only gate that still stands. This piece of history is a must see for those visiting Cesky Krumlov. Just be sure to see both sides of the gate: the outer side is menacingly built, while the side that faces the town has a beautiful renaissance-styled decoration.
