Prague is one of the most well visited cities in Europe and it is easy to see why as soon as you reach the historic centre of the “City of a Hundred Spires” (actually more like 500 if you want to be accurate). Straddling the banks of the majestic Vltava River, it’s a treasure trove of cobbled streets and secluded courtyards that will delight and entice even the most seasoned traveller. Throw in its romantic bridges, historic cathedrals, dazzling gold covered towers and the spectacular astronomical clock at its heart, it is a place eager to reveal its exquisite treasures to those willing to seek them out. Join us on this city break and be inspired by the spires.

We suggest a Group Collection to cover guides, transfer drivers, and hotel staff of minimum £15.00 per person. Your Tour Leader will collect this on your behalf and distribute it accordingly, thus relieving you of the burden of who, when and how much to tip. The tipping of housekeeping will be left to your individual discretion (a small amount left in your room on departure should cover this and would be much appreciated). As is customary, ‘the hat’ will be passed around for the driver and guide on all optional excursions. For any meals that are not included in your itinerary, or taxi fares, your Tour Leader can advise of an appropriate % to add on.
