What to SEE
Český Krumlov
Nestled in the heart of the Czech Republic, Český Krumlov stands as a living testament to centuries of history and culture. Its well-preserved medieval old town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, beckons visitors with its enchanting cobblestone streets, charming squares, and stunning Renaissance architecture. At the heart of the town lies the majestic Český Krumlov Castle, a sprawling complex perched atop a hill, offering panoramic views of the meandering Vltava River below. Within its walls, visitors can explore a labyrinth of courtyards, gardens, and historic chambers, each echoing with tales of nobility and intrigue. As you wander through the narrow alleys, you'll encounter quaint cafes, artisan shops, and bustling marketplaces, where the aroma of freshly baked pastries mingles with the melodies of street musicians. The town's vibrant cultural scene comes alive during the summer months, with festivals, concerts, and theatrical performances filling the air with energy and excitement.
South Moravia
Beyond the capital, Moravia has verdant vineyards and hip bars, Bohemia boasts traditional breweries and rambling castle ruins, and the Mountains are peppered with pretty spa towns. The Czech Republic’s strategic location means it was a prized possession for various empires and dynasties over the aeons, which means that its romantic countryside is full of gorgeous castles and chateaux in various architectural styles ‐ perfect road trip destinations for history buffs who want to take a scenic step into the past. Further while this is a modern, outward-looking nation, you’ll still find folk traditions, especially in Moravia and South Bohemia. And one tradition which you might be interested in is brilliant beer-making ‐ for many connoisseurs, the Czech Republic is the home of the world’s best beer. So if you want to park up for a few days, you can sample the original (and best) Budweiser Budvar, and other outstanding brands like Pilsner Urquell and Staropramen.
Prague, Plzeň and Kalovy Vary
No trip to The Czech Republic is complete without a stay in the capital PRAGUE but as it's not ideal for traffic, especially superbikes! Even though a ride through the city's cobbled roads on our route to the less tourist areas of Plzeň and Kalovy Vary makes for a fun and exciting start to the day.
Plzeň, renowned as the birthplace of one of the world's most iconic beers, is a haven for beer enthusiasts and connoisseurs alike. Home to the storied Pilsner Urquell brewery, founded in 1842, this charming Czech town boasts a rich brewing heritage that permeates every corner of its cobblestone streets.
Nestled in the lush green valleys of western Bohemia, Karlovy Vary, or Carlsbad, is a true gem that captivates visitors with its timeless elegance and natural beauty. Famous for its healing mineral springs and exquisite architecture, this enchanting spa town exudes an aura of refined charm and sophistication.
Bohemian Switzerland National Park
A hidden gem tucked away in the northwestern corner of the Czech Republic, is a mesmerizing tapestry of soaring sandstone cliffs, lush forests, and meandering rivers. Named for its resemblance to the picturesque landscapes of Switzerland, this breathtaking wilderness is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers alike. The park's most iconic feature is the dramatic sandstone formations that rise like ancient monoliths from the forest floor, creating a maze of towering spires, narrow gorges, and hidden valleys. Among these natural wonders is the Pravčická brána, the largest natural sandstone arch in Europe, which serves as a majestic gateway to the park's rugged beauty.
