Is this trip right for you?
- We recommend packing light and smart for this trip as you'll have to carry your own luggage through train stations and to hotels. This can include going up and down multiple flights of stairs and across uneven cobblestones.
- Summer temperatures can be extreme in many of the regions visited (over 40 C/105 F). Please consider the time of the year you wish to travel and your suitability for that season.
- The accommodation we use in Cesky Krumlov is full of character and perfectly represents the spirit of a medieval central European town. This means that the comfort level may be slightly lower compared to the rest of the accommodation used on this trip, however the rustic charm makes up for this.
