Excellent tour for a class of 4th graders! And I loved it too! Our guide was really able to keep the kids’ attention, she was informative but with a good sense of humor (and a good sense of what would interest kids the most)… 🐊 As a Louisiana native and gator lover, I felt right at home. Note: it is quite warm and humid inside for the reptiles’ comfort, so dress lightly. 😉
Tracey S — Google review
Great to take the kids to see crocodiles close up and even hold a baby croc! (At an extra cost and only some days). Its quite a short visit 30-40mins max. Staff very friendly, public areas clean and smart. Although the enclosures are fairly small, they do have a breading program here to help stop extinction so in the long run its all good. 100% 5 star for uniqueness and efforts.
Mr A — Google review
This crocodile farm worth to visit but I really recommend to avoid a feeding time because it's heavily crowded and we did not enjoy so much due to that. Also admission price is pretty high but it could be justified by high expenses of Zoo. BTW you can see in person living dinosaurs there 🙂

Sad place where crocodiles are hold as hostages in tiny pools. Very hot inside. Overpriced. Need to pay for everything - for entrance, ability to take photo, photo with small crocodile. Too hyped out. P.s. if you are there - be sure to take a pic with small crocodile to touch it.

The State Chateau of Hluboká

Castle
Sights & Landmarks
Manor house
The State Chateau of Hluboká, located in the South Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic, has a rich history dating back to the 13th century. Originally a royal castle, it now stands as one of the most stunning castles in Europe. The interior boasts intricate woodwork, gold ceilings adorned with rare painted flowers, canvas wall paintings by French artists, and stained glass from Swiss churches. The library is particularly noteworthy.
This is a truly beautiful castle/palace to visit! You can go inside or just walk around it and visit the gardens (that’s free). We came on Monday, so we couldn’t go inside, but we walked outside and loved this place! The castle itself looks really cute! Don’t forget to go around it! And don’t forget to visit the garden on the right side. It is also beautiful and has really old trees that are huge! You can’t park your car anywhere near, you will need to park below the hill and walk up about 500m. There is also a nice place to eat not far from there!
Anya N — Google review
The biggest and most wonderful castle in Czech Republic. In a country with more than 2000 castles, this one surpasses them all in terms of interiors and architectural style. It is also well furnished. You can go up on foot, or by a little train, from the parking, if you want some fun.

Hluboká Castle is an absolutely stunning neo-Gothic chateau that feels like something out of a fairytale. Surrounded by beautifully maintained gardens and perched above the Vltava River, the setting is breathtaking. The interiors are richly decorated, showcasing exquisite woodwork, historic furnishings, and artwork that reflect the grandeur of the Schwarzenberg family who once lived here. It's unfortunate that photography is not allowed inside, as the rooms are truly impressive and worth remembering. Still, the guided tour provides fascinating insights, and the castle itself is a must-visit for anyone interested in history, architecture, or just a beautiful .
Jura B — Google review
A Neo-Gothic Fairytale Masterpiece! Absolutely Breathtaking. Hluboká is an incredibly stunning castle that truly lives up to its "fairytale" reputation. The exterior, inspired by Windsor Castle, is immaculate and the white architecture against the backdrop of the park is simply breathtaking. The Interior Tour: I highly recommend taking a guided tour to see the luxurious interiors. The rooms are a magnificent display of aristocratic wealth—from the intricate wood carving and grand staircases to the priceless art and Murano chandeliers. A real journey into the 19th-century noble life. Grounds: The surrounding English Park and gardens are massive and perfect for a relaxing stroll, offering different beautiful views of the chateau from every angle. Tip: Be aware that photography is usually forbidden inside the castle, but the outside views make up for it! Get there early or book your tour tickets online, as it is very popular. A must-see in South Bohemia!

A beautifully maintained 13th century Neo Gothic Chateau in South Bomehia overlooking the forests, town and Vltara River. All the rooms have been preserved to their original state. It was considered a hunting retreat for the royal families so if you're a big animal lover this one may not be for you as all the open rooms are adorned with many many animal trophies. It was considered very modern in its time as they had electricity and modern toilets as far back as the 1920's. Its huge and beautifully architectured and maintained. Worth a visit

Visited the fairy-tale beauty of Hluboká Castle (Hluboká nad Vltavou), one of the most stunning castles in the Czech Republic. Located near České Budějovice in South Bohemia, this neo-Gothic masterpiece is often compared to Windsor Castle in England. With its breathtaking architecture, beautiful gardens, and rich history, Hluboká is a must-visit destination for travelers exploring Europe.

Worth the detour this is a gorgeous unique castle with ties to powerful families in Europe. In October it was off season so two wings were closed to the public and since it was raining so was the tower. Leaving only one wing to visit which was unfortunate. You can also only visit with a guided tour, our guide was funny and knowledgeable. Would recommend!

Very good pilgrimage to the beer factory. Remember to bring a jacket. Drinking a really fresh beer in the cellar,It's only 2 degrees Celsius .
Sally S — Google review
Really worth to visit! Event though the ticket is not the cheapest, its worth to see what standards they have on the beer that you might have tried. The tour takes appx. 55 mins, provides interesting information. We had a pleasure to have as a guide the long term Quality Director, he knows what's going on there! During the trip you can try their non filtrated beer.
Ewelina B — Google review
We took a tour of Budweiser plant. It was in English, not that expensive, very interesting. We tasted two kinds of unfiltered lager. It had an interesting and a different taste. The tour lasted around 50 minutes. They do tours in the afternoon in English, Czech and German. The only downside was that the tour guide's English was not that good (but we understood everything). The adjacent restaurant was too expensive for us.

Great place to visit to learn more about the national Czech drink 🇨🇿 Beer tasting (spoiler : it is really good) with a very nice guide tour 🍻 You can also buy nice souvenirs 🎁 Definitely worth it if you are in Ceske Budejovice!

We visited Budvar on a rainy day, because we wanted some indoor activity. The guided tour takes aprox. 60 minutes. Since September, there is only one tour, with the start at 2 p.m. We recommend to come sooner. There is also an interactive beer museum at the customer center, where you can get information about the history of Budvar brewery. The visit of the museum is free. Very good was also a short film in the Budvar cinema.

Amazing tour today! Simply put, our tour guide, Milada (and a volunteer btw) was amazing. What passion she has for the company she represents. The tour was extremely informative. We were taken to all areas of the brewery and got to see all the behind the scenes action. The beer tasting was great—straight from the barrel. Again, our tour guide was so amazing. Treat her well, Budvar.

Hussite Museum in Tabor

Mentioned on

Museum
Specialty Museums
The Hussite Museum in Tabor is a must-visit for those interested in the city's rich history tied to the Hussite religious movement. Founded by Protestant radicals known as Taborites in 1420, the museum offers insights into this significant period of Czech history. Visitors can explore the underground cellars around the main square, where a guided tour provides a glimpse into their historical use and significance.
Very interesting and illustrative museum. Also suitable for children as there is a lot to touch and experience for yourself. Unfortunately, not everything is in English. The guided tour through the catacombs was also only in Czech with accompanying material to read in many languages. But the staff make a lot of effort to overcome any language barriers and the whole museum conveys Czech national pride and the importance of the Hussites for the Czech Image today.

Interesting tour of underground tunnels around the central square of Tábor. Unfortunately there is only a card provided in all other languages (English, German, Polish, Russian, Ukrainian, etc) and many of the details of the tour are lost because they are not described on the cards.

Worth a look, very good interesting Tabor city, Reformation & Hussite history. Most of the exhibits are in Czech. The tunnel tour is worth a look. Request an English tour and you might be lucky to get an English speaker. Otherwise they supply an information sheet in English. There are also lockable wine vats to place bags or backpacks in as well.
Peter — Google review
A good museum showing the history the Hussites and Tabor. There is a surprising amount in this museum and if you have an interest in the history of the Hussites, this is the place for you. There are quite detailed exhibits showing much of the history. Under the museum lies a series of tunnels that can be travelled through with a guide. However it is worth noting that the guide spoke only Czech and for someone who is not a Czech speaker, the tunnels might be less interesting, although still quite good.
David D — Google review
I thought it was wonderful. I was the only one on the tour, possibly because I came on a Wednesday morning in January when it was snowing. The underground tour is extensive, and I learned a lot about how people lived hundreds of years ago. On ground level, there is a museum dedicated to two Czech heroes: Jan Hus and Jan Ziska. You should learn about them.

Museum of chocolate and marzipan

Museum
Chocolate shop
Specialty Museums
The Museum of Chocolate and Marzipan is a delightful attraction that offers a whimsical experience with its intricate marzipan dioramas. Visitors can embark on an educational journey through the history of chocolate, from ancient times to modern-day confections, while admiring impressive chocolate sculptures depicting various figures. The museum also provides insight into the process of crafting chocolate and marzipan, complete with adorable displays.
Great fun for our little ones from 3-10 years, they had so much fun admiring all the chocolate exhibits, then making their own creations using marzipan and sprinkles. The smell of cocoa, especially by the train, is amazing. There is a fairytale underground. One of them is very dark and could be quite scary for the very young ones. ….Still having fun at home with the marzipan multi color kits, making food for dollies and such.

I did not go to the museum, because the ticket is expensive - 280 czk. But I bought a delicious chocolate bar here. Truly great quality Bean to Bar chocolate
M — Google review
This is the type of place that could be so bad that it was good, but the smell inside just makes it awful. though it does have some highlights like Mr. Bean and his car made out of chocolate, and who can forget Check Republics largest interactive chocolate train. The barbies with dresses made out of a combination of chocklate and fabric, the rosedress (also combo), the small devils in the basement who just drink all day instead of processing the chocolate. Basically, the type of exibit that may scarare your kids enough to give them nightmares... help you take a break from chocolate (who am I kidding, just go get a new chocolatebar, and you'll be fine). But if you are looking for a place to scare your kids off chocolate, this is the place for you! Or if you are in the erea and curious about just how bad this can be and have time to spare, I'd say go for it. It's deffenetly a memorable place ✨️
S — Google review
Disclaimer: Do not visit this museum! We were in Tabor and the museum was around the corner from our apartment so we wanted to give it a try. Compared to the other very reasonable priced museums in town, the ticket is way too expensive (250 crowns per adult, that’s around 10€). Most of the exhibited chocolate models are old and there are tons of food moths flying around. The smell in some rooms is disgusting which is weird for a museum about chocolate and marzipan. We were totally disappointed as we did not learn anything about chocolate or marzipan making. The only slightly interesting thing was the so called „Fairy Cellar“ which reminded us of the museum of the Husseits in the center of town. To be honest I wouldn’t even go here if it was free, what a waste of time and money.
Celina B — Google review
A neat little museum dedicated to chocolate and marzipan. There's plenty of information (much of it in English as well as Czech) about the history and production of our favourite sweet treat. All the best displays are actually made of marzipan; there's some impressive models (including the town square and the castle) made in exquisite detail. OK, so the fairy tale cellar is a bit odd (maybe one for the kids!), and it's a little on the expensive side, but if you're in Tábor it's worth a look. Tip: Try the hot chocolate. It's pure melted chocolate (variety of types to choose from), served in espresso cups. You don't need more than that!
Robin W — Google review
If you have 270 czk , don't spend it here go to coffee budik in front. Strange creatures are making strange noises in the basement. Just think, it was such a worthless activity that even paying 40 CZK would have been heartbreaking. Seven of us visited. We could have probably bought two acres of cocoa tree land with the entrance fee in total we gave.

The Konopiste Castle

Mentioned on

Castle
Sights & Landmarks
The Konopiste Castle is a Baroque palace that was built over a medieval and Renaissance castle. It was once the home of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, an enigmatic figure who used it as his ideal country retreat. The castle is located amid extensive grounds 2km west of the town of Benesov and showcases the archduke's twin obsessions: hunting and St George.
Fantastic historic castle to visit about 45 minutes by train outside Prague and only €12 return. Still furnished and filled with military & hunting memorabilia as Archduke Franz Ferdinand had it just over 100 years ago. The coffee shop inside has some divine pastries as well.
Gary M — Google review
Visiting Konopiště Castle was absolutely wonderful. The interior tour was fascinating, with room after room full of history and interesting trinkets. There’s so much to see. I was especially surprised to see an elevator inside such an old castle. Just be aware: the tours are only available in Czech, however there's audio guides available in English, German, and some other languages. The on-site chocolate shop was a sweet surprise. The variety of chocolates was impressive, and everything I tried was absolutely delicious. I only wish I could have sampled them all! Sadly the rose garden was not yet in bloom during our visit, but I'm very sure it is a sight to be seen. The presence of so many peacocks wandering the grounds added a magical touch. A peaceful walk around the nearby lake was the perfect way to end the visit—calm, scenic, and incredibly relaxing. All in all, Konopiště Castle is a must see. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area. It blends rich history, natural beauty, and charming surprises.
V O — Google review
Fairy-tale like castle and adjacent grounds with 3 excellent tours; note that each is charged separately and there is an option to get an audio guide in English. During the Franz/Sophie private apartment tour you'll be able to see a set of truly touching drawings made by their daughter showing the alegory of the assassination - taking photos is forbidden and unfortunately I couldn't find it anywhere on the internet. There is also a temporary exibition of historical clothing of the nobility with an incredible guide.
Predrag M — Google review
A visit to Konopiště castle will bring you back in time to the beginning of the 20th century when it belonged to the heir to the Habsburg throne. He and his family lived in splendid seclusion oblivious to what the future holds for them. You have a choice from several tours out of which the one through the private chambers of the family is as close as you can get to the royals of that time.

Wow! Just WOW! It's simply impossible to see everything in one tour. That's why there are 4 different routes for sightseeing tours. Unfortunately, we were only able to visit tour 2. But I haven't seen so many medieval weapons and everything else in a long time. Unfortunately, you can't take pictures inside. Come and see! You definitely won't regret it! Parking for a day costs 100 CZK, which is 4 euros. There are also many interesting things around the castle, such as a park, a rose garden, a mini zoo
Oleksandr P — Google review
Interesting castle in a beautiful location. You can see why Franz Ferdinand loved being there...shame he took so much of the local wildlife out! Seeing where Kaiser Wilheim & von Tirpitz stayed overnight was fascinating...same furniture, same wallpaper. I would recommend seeing this is the Spring or Summer...the rose gardens are meant to be beautiful & the Kaiser loved them. Going mid October meant the gardens weren't in bloom and you could tell is was closing for the season. I finished a tour at 3pm and the restaurant and cafe were already closed so I couldn't get a drink. The guides were so knowledgeable & friendly but the commentary on the audio guides should be more detailed. The Czech version was much longer for almost every room!! If you take the trsin from Prague & walk there, you get off at Benesov & wonder where is the castle?? The area is quite industrial. But go over the bridge, turn left, then right fork & it's a really beautiful walk right up to the back of the castle, through the forest. I intend to go again but in Summer & I will take drinks this time!!

Beautiful, final resting place for members of a noble family of Schwarzenbergs. It is an easy walk along "Svet" (a huge pond). It is closed on Mondays, but even the walk around and pondering the beauty of the place and our own mortality is worth it.

Excellent trip with the kids, even made at the beginning of December (by that time parking was free of charge, otherwise it's 60 Czk). Nice walk around the lake (1 km, follow yellow marking). Spectacular views possibly every season.

We visited Červená Lhota island castle during hot summer weekend and it was not very busy there. We did not go inside the castle and just enjoyed a short walk around the parkland. The nature is rich there, there is lot of shade so one can hide from the sun light. There are few booths with toys, refreshments and souvenirs. Apart from that, you can find cheap toilets and two bistros.

One of the most famous and nicest chateaus in the Czech Republic. What a pity that there was no water in the pond. Still we enjoyed our stay and visited the inside premises of the building itself. Definitely worth visiting.

Český Šternberk Castle

Mentioned on 
1 list 
Castle
Sights & Landmarks
Nestled on a prominent rock overlooking the Sazava River, Český Šternberk Castle is a Gothic and Baroque marvel dating back to the 13th century. It is still owned by the original family who built it nearly 800 years ago. The castle boasts well-preserved Gothic architecture with some later Baroque additions.
Beautiful and impressive place. The interiors very interesting and in a good shape. Visiting the castle is only possible with the guide who talks in Czech, but we got our leaflets with all info in Polish. The tour takes approx. 1 hour. On Sunday the tours were quite often so we didn't have to wait long for the next one. You have to pay extra for the possibility to take pictures inside.

Český Šternberk Castle is a stunning medieval fortress perched above the Sázava River. Beautifully preserved, with rich interiors and a unique family history that goes back to the 13th century. One of the must-visit castles in the Czech Republic.

Extremely interesting location! Half an hour to drive from Prague. Good parking, 50 CZK (2 euro) (it is necessary to pay in the Castle when buying entrance tickets - 250 CZK - 10 euro). The castle belongs to one of the descendants of the Sternberg family. Inside you will see a lot of interesting things, rooms, furnitures - knight's hall, salon, chapel, ladies' salon, library (3500 copies of old books), dining room, office, hall, smoking room, bedroom, hunting salon. The tour takes about an hour in Czech. But there is a printed description in other languages, the description should be taken free of charge when buying tickets. In the courtyard of the castle is a nice restaurant with normal prices. Definitely recommend to anyone interested in medieval castles

Wasn’t able to catch a tour as we went in the evening in November and they closed at 2pm. However, this was a blessing, as we captured such an amazing sunset, and the gorgeous autumn colors of the forests around the castle were spectacular! There are walking trails all around, amazing views from the town below, and very few people around.

It may not be the most famous castle, but it is a genuine example of a working castle that is lived in by the same family that built the original part of the castle in 1241. The history in between was somewhat turbulent for the family, which makes for a fascinating story, and the visit was all the more memorable for that. I am glad I took the tour. Thanks to my tour guide, Maria.

A well maintained castle in a beautiful area. Very happy they offer English tours. Our guide was knowledgeable, shared a lot of information and was able to answer all our questions. She was very patient with us and had a warm personality. You can get a few refreshing drinks and snacks to enjoy in the court. Very good homemade lemonades. The prices are mostly fair, though they ask for a €2 camera license if you want to take pictures, which is absolutely silly.

The castle is very beautiful. The view is amazing. But if you want to photograph the castle it costs around 50 CZK. Inside Is pretty large. From the view you can see the beatiful railway and the Sázavské forests. Castle Is open only in weekends.

Nice castle ruin where has sense to go, accessable by car/ motorbike and 2 large parking places. Visiting time approx 1 hour is enought, you can step up on to tower, great countryside view. The recommendation is early visit, otherwise can be crowded by bus tours. Entrance approx 5€ per adult person.

Has to be said that our visit to this castle was unplanned. With little knowledge this castle offers you good enough leaflets about the history, as well as providing information in a small museum within. Great 360 degrees views from the top. You don't need to leave your dog behind in the car and can bring it all the way into the highest tower.

Stanislav Š — Google review
One of the best preserved castle ruins in the country. The largest tower provides good views of the surrounding forests, well worth the 150ish steps up to the top. A selfguided tour allows you to take your time or race through and then relax in the moat/park and do come cross/bow shooting. Not sure if and how guided tours work. No refreshments were availble at the castle so get them at one of the 3 restaurants in the village just below before you go.

St. Barbara's Cathedral is a stunning example of Gothic architecture located in Kutna Hora, Czech Republic. The cathedral, with its sharp spines and flying buttresses, is a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the most well-preserved churches in Central Europe. It was built between 1257 and 1281 and boasts five naves. The construction began in 1388 but wasn't completed until the early twentieth century. St.
Stepped into St Barbara’s on a bright morning and was immediately floored by that soaring Gothic nave—ribbed vaults twisting overhead like frozen webs. Sunlight streamed through vibrant stained glass, casting kaleidoscopic patterns onto centuries-old stone. Knowing it took over 500 years to complete—and that it was built by miners to rival Prague—makes every gargoyle, flying buttress, and delicate fresco feel like a statement of pride. Climbing up to peek at the exterior ribs and slender buttresses from inside was an unexpected highlight—architecture turned up close

Massive Gothic cathedral that serves as the main draw for this town. Beautiful interiors complement the towering external structure. Also featured intricate stained glass. There's a free audio/text guide that provided good context to the visit.

A beautiful church that rivals St Vitus Cathedral in Prague. We spent an hour+ here doing the audio guide on our phones. The audio guide was very informative and easy to use. The exterior of the church is gorgeous, it's hard to choose between St Barbara's or St Vitus in Prague Castle. The interior of the church is also very interesting and beautiful. It was lovely to see so many regences to the town's mining history.
Rebecca O — Google review
The entire complex of which the cathedral is a part is immense, extraordinarily beautiful, and the cathedral itself is huge, a construction that is no longer made nowadays. When you go up to the cathedral, you are enveloped by a feeling of well-being and happiness. You can buy a ticket just for the cathedral or another one that includes the ossuary from Sedlec , but the ossuary is just for advertising, it's not worth visiting, it's in another town, not far away.

Unbelievable! 10/10 must see! I've sen many pictures of this amazing Gothic church before coming here, but this is one of those places you simply have to experience. It doesn't even seem real. The detail of the masonry on both the exterior and interior are nothing short of stunnung. Stepping inside, was the most ornate and beautifully decorated church I've ever seen. From the masonry, to the carved statues painted and guilded in gold, simply stunning. And to think that construction started over 600 years ago is mind bending! Kuta Hora started as a simple monestary, until one of the monks found silver, and it quickly became one of the largest and wealthiest mines in Europe. At one point in time it was estimated that 30% of the silver that existed in Europe came from Kutna Hora, making it one of the wealthiest cities in all of Europe. With all that wealth came the funding to construct the fantastical. The Works started in 1388 and continued until 1588. Sadly, during the 200 years of construction, the mines began to run out of silver, and with it, the funds to continue construction. You will notice a seemingly plain and flat elevation on the north wall, a departure from the wildly complicated structure, leaving you impressed, but longing for the full vision to have been seen through. Tickets to enter are cheap, and beyond worth it.

Very beautiful church on amazing grounds. It compares to St-Vitus church in Prague. All the sculptures presented in the alley getting to the church reminded me of Charles Bridge. Beautiful. The church itself is very well preserved, though it was weirdly "missing" some stained glass windows at some places (I doubt that it was initially built with crystal clear windows, but I might be wrong). Informative display collection and presentation of historical facts upstairs, near the organ. The views of Kutna Hora from the church's site are splendid.

Czech Museum of Silver

Mentioned on

Museum
Specialty Museums
The Czech Museum of Silver is a small museum located in the historic center of Kutna Hora, offering insights into silver mining and local mining history. Visitors can explore an underground mine and view exhibits showcasing the city's rich mining heritage. Additionally, the museum is housed in Hradek (Little Castle), providing a unique setting for learning about the region's silver industry.
There’s two parts to this museum, part 1 is the exhibition and part 2 is the guided tour into the mine. You can choose to just go for one of them, or both. The tour was an amazing experiencing going into a real mine. I appreciate that they are concerned of our safety and pre-warned everyone about the enclosed environment we will be in. There’s two guides in the tour, one leading us and one following us at the back to ensure our safety. There is even a small fake mine to test our claustrophobia before we go in to the real mine. In the middle of the mine, our tour guide even simulated the conditions that the miners mined in. They were very knowledgeable and shared the history of Kutna Hora, the process of mining silver and even the lives of the miners. One tip is to join the tour with lesser people, because the mine is really small and cramped. The tour group can go up to 25 people but our small group of 7 people seemed perfect. There are Czech and English tours, but they also provided a file with translated version of the tour if you require. You can also buy a plain coin from the counter and mint your own coin using a hammer.

Museum of Silver in Kutha Hora is hidden gem of the city of Kutna Hora. It combines an exhibition of silver mining history in the region, with lots of very interesting information AND most importantly it also includes guided tour in the original silver mi e from 14th century. You walk through very narrow corridors 30 meters under the ground, you literally feel like traveling back in time. Absolutely amazing!!!
Vladimir N — Google review
We did the silver museum mine tour which was wonderful. Our guide was very knowledgeable and conducting her first tour in English and she was very good! The tour was fascinating and covered the history, the process of mining, the tools and of course a visit down the mine itself. Book the tour ahead of time as places are limited. I would consider this a must if visiting Kutna Hora. Loved it.

Definitely high light of the day in Kutna Hora. Found this tour available in the afternoon and didn’t expect much, but it literally made our day. Great experience go under the silver mine, tour guide speaks very clearly. (We did the salt mine tour 4 days ago in Krakow, and this one is much better than that) Smaller group tour walking in the narrow tunnels, fun and educational experience.

probably the best museum experience in my life. we got in tour with a very sweet english-speaking lady, who very passionately answered all of our questions and showed us the mines underneath Kutna Hora. we were a small group of 3 and we had plenty of space to crawl around. the upper building of Hradek is another museum exhibition about history of Kutna Hora and its silver mines, which is also very interesting to learn. must visit if you are in this sweet town. two combined tickets cost us 540czk, which is very cheap for this kind of experience
Anatoliy — Google review
This doesn't feel safe at all. You've been taken through the deep mine corridors, 24 persons all at once, no first aid kits, no means of evacuation. Some parts of the route are as narrow as 40sm in width, and 120 sm in height, so think twice before deciding to go down, especially if you're prone to claustrophobic or panic attacks. Instructors doesn't stress hard enough how narrow is this place, I believe if they have showed some video footage of what it's like... Anyway, you've been warned!

Sedlec Ossuary, also known as the 'Bone Church,' is a small Gothic chapel located beneath the Cemetery Church of All Saints in Kutna Hora, Czech Republic. It is adorned with garlands of human skulls, a bone chandelier, and chalices made from the bones of over 40,000 individuals. This macabre yet captivating site attracts visitors worldwide who are eager to witness its unique artistry and contemplate mortality.
Interesting and unsettling historic site. The information and videos about the restoration work makes you appreciate the dedication and craftsmanship of the people involved in creating the Ossuary and now ensuring the site is kept safe is really impressive.

Very interesting church. It is one of a kind. It was much smaller than I expected. Definitely worth the visit. My only disappointment is that it’s so unique but you can’t take a picture of yourself inside. Granted there are few people who do not show respect when taking a pic, the remainder of the folks have to suffer for other’s bad decisions. this place is good for a quick stop.

An absolutely fascinating and hauntingly beautiful place to visit. The Sedlec Ossuary is unlike anything else — both eerie and awe-inspiring at the same time. The artistry and respect shown in how the bones are arranged is incredible; it really makes you reflect on history, mortality, and craftsmanship all at once. I visited on a weekday and had almost no wait to get in, which made the experience even better. The site is well-preserved, informative, and surprisingly peaceful. Highly recommend stopping here if you’re anywhere near Kutná Hora — it’s a quick trip from Prague and completely worth it. Buying tickets in advance isn’t necessary if you go early in the day, but it can’t hurt during busy seasons.

Came to Kutna Hora being a fan of KCD 2, and had to stop by this famous spot. I think my girlfriend thought I was a bit off for wanting to go to a church, but she ended up loving it just as much as me! Also don't be a doofus, pay attention and NO PHOTOGRAPHY OR VIDEOS!! There's a visitor's center just a short walk down the street where you buy tickets, or you can do so online ahead of time. Gift shop was cool, had some KCD related items as well

Unfriendly staff. There is no ticket office at the location. There is no explanation of the history of the place. High price. Half of the place is well kept, the other half is ”ongoing”. Place serves it purpose: you get the immediate vibes of looking at real bones of thousands of people. You have to be into it to enjoy the experience. I didn’t. Would not recommend.

Telč Chateau, located in the Vysocina Region of the Czech Republic, is a Renaissance chateau with a rich history dating back to the 16th century. Originally a Gothic castle, it was transformed into an imposing three-wing complex with picturesque roofs, arcades, and delicate sgraffito decoration by architect Baldassare Maggi. Visitors can explore stunning Renaissance halls adorned with lavishly painted wooden panel ceilings depicting historic and mythical stories.
The town of Telč is a very old historical town and, thanks to its beauty, is one of the 17 UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the Czech Republic. The square is lined with beautiful historic houses and there is a wide range of restaurants and cafes where you can sit outside and observe the beautiful houses. There is also a courtyard with a cafe in the castle grounds, which has a large selection of great cakes and desserts and very good coffee. We also enjoyed a walk through the old streets and around the pond in the castle garden. The bridge over the pond, which was built thanks to a sponsorship from the Swiss municipality of Belp, also deserves attention.

Worst guided tour ever. There are 15 people who speak English but the guide chose to speak Czech to the few other tourists and gave us text to read ourselves without even explaining which room is which. When I protested she said she only had 15 minutes so she’d rather speak her language. No star to this woman.

Vranov nad Dyjí Chateau

State-owned Baroque castle & chapel perched on a clifftop with a restored interior open for tours.
We like this city and the whole region. We were here 7 years ago. New restaurants appeared. It is a pity that we could not see the castle. The gates to the castle grounds close at 5 p.m. until the end of June. Then, during the 2 summer months, it will close at 18 hours.

The place was very nice and pretty. The castle had a beautiful view. The tower was worth it. If you will be in Vranov nad Dyjí I recommend to go there.

One of the best preserved castles in the Czech Republic, exceptional furniture and walls paintings. The parking lot is in the valley and you have to climb up to the castle, need coins.

27.8.2025 really tired about the czech management of state castles....archaic concept of obligationary splitted tours without audioguides...for a ripoff price...of course inside no fotos allowed as nobody would visit their castles under this conditions anymore. Parking is another mess,too.

The castle looks really impressive from the town below. We were with a young child so we didn't see the rooms. Otherwise there are a few courtyards but other than that most of the castle grounds are off limits. There seems to be a nice rose garden but you can't visit that either. On the upside the gift shop is amazing and sells some beautiful local made pottery and glassware for dime on the nickel. And the underground cafe is worth visiting as well.

Beautiful castle in barocco style. Very good interiors. Nice excursion. There are three excursions - representations halls (220 kc), private bedrooms (220 kc) and the tower (100 kc). Parking in 600 meters before the castles, 100 Kc for the whole day - ONLY CASH AND ONLY Czech crowns.

St. Procopius Basilica in Třebíč

Mentioned on 
3 lists 
Basilica
Sights & Landmarks
The St. Procopius Basilica in Třebíč is a 12th-century Romanesque church situated on a hilltop overlooking the Jewish Quarter. It was once a monastery and today offers guided tours for visitors to explore its historic architecture and religious significance. The UNESCO-listed basilica is considered to be an important landmark that attracts many tourists, who come to admire its rare beauty and ancient heritage.
It was a great opportunity to visit St. Procopius Basilica in Třebíč city. Visiting a basilica is an experience that transcends time and connects us to the spiritual heritage of the past while inspiring us for the future. Built on the site of the original Virgin Mary's Chapel of the Benedictine monastery in 13th century it is one of the oldest in Czech republic and was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage in 2003.
Andrii K — Google review
The basilica is highly recommended for its unique style and old Romanesque artworks. However, the interior can only be visited with a guided tour, which must be booked at the info centre. Tours run almost every hour and are in Czech, but information pamphlets are available in German and English.

Sadly, closed when I went past. A beautiful old church that is sometimes open. It begins the trail though the UNESCO old Jewish area
Jeremy K — Google review
A mixture or romanesque and gothic architecture dating from the early 13th century - not common at all in the Czech Republic. Please mind that the interior is only accessible with a guided tour (check the timings, we got there 9 minutes late and were not allowed in, not even for a quick glance). A view and a lovely herb garden (with name-tags for herbs!) makes up for the disappointment if you don't manage to get in.

Really beautiful, very old and rare Roman style church.
Ry K — Google review
Unique place on its own, but there's also a beautiful herb garden outside and a great view of the city. The guided tour of the interior was informative and interesting. It also allows access to most of the spaces inside the building, which give you insight into various eras of the building's existence. If you're interested in history or architecture, I can't recommend it enough. Photos are allowed inside the building.

Excellent place to visit , Lots of history and the gardens , buildings and surrounds are superbly maintained . Easy to spend a couple of hours or more just walking around and taking it all in at a relaxed pace. There is an excellent cafe with great coffee and a large souvenir shop . We didn't go to the museum with paid entry as we arrived just behind a large tour bus group . Plenty of parking across the road out the front. Highly Recommended .

Very nice place to visit. Not a lot of tourists. Entrance was free, tours were not. Only with the tour you will get into the main part of the building. I don't know if the tour is worth it to be honest. All tours were in Czech. I do think it will be quite interesting when you understand the tourguide.

The castle is open on some days only, so check this in advance. Otherwise you might end up with the museum and the gardens only. The entrance to the gardens is either form the street or from the information center and it's for free. There is a cool souvenir shop where I bought some beer, chocolate and some other local products. Parking place in front of the castle is huge and the historical bridge that is one of the top highlights of the town is close by. You will very probably pass through it with your car on your way to the castle, actually.

I have visited the castle Zdar n.Sazavou in April 2019 and it was great. I liked tge castle itself and the internal yard. There are guided tours and the one I tried was in Czech and it was very interesting. The guide was very welcoming, smiling and positive. Apart the standard things you find in the castle I really appreciated the baby change room, this was the only baby change point I found in Zdar unfortunately, so it was a pleasant surprise.
Galina B — Google review
The huge castle area is very well maintained by its owner Kinsky family, it is just amazing. We really like how the buildings were reconstructed with taste. The orientation system is very artistic and nice. There is absolutely no visual smog of banners outside, so refreshing and unique in Czechia. There is all kinds of services in the castle: a café, a few museums, a souvenir shop, different kinds of acommodation, a church and even a school :) The only thing we were missing was a restaurant that would sell fish caught in the Kinsky's ponds. I definitely recommend a tour called Following Santini's Footprints in many castle buildings. The tour guide Tomas was super nice, he had a very interactive tour with questions and discussions and he knew a lot.

The Pilgrimage church of St. John of Nepomuk at Zelená hora

Mentioned on 
2 lists 
Catholic church
Sights & Landmarks
Churches & Cathedrals
The Pilgrimage church of St. John of Nepomuk at Zelená hora is an 18th-century Baroque-Gothic church and a UNESCO World Heritage site located in Trebic. The church features an ornate altar and outer chapels, drawing visitors with its mystical atmosphere and unique architecture. Designed by the Czech architect Jan Blazej Santini-Aichel, the church is a remarkable example of Baroque Gothic style, showcasing intricate symbolism and religious messages.
This is a beautiful gothic church in the Czech Republic. It has some special characteristics that make it stand out: the flying buttresses, the pointed roofs, the gorgeous stained glass and of course the many interior ribbed arches. Inside you will find elaborate wooden pieces dedicated to the different guilds, confessionals, several chapels and the very large organ decorated with the golden figures of small angels. On the roof are the coats of arms of all the different guilds that took part in its construction as well as that of the silver mine that provided the money to fund the structure. Don’t miss a chance to get a tour of the silver mines and the companion site at Sedlec Ossuary where you will find the church adorned with human bones.

Attractive pilgrimage church with unusuall walls in the shape of star. Worth to climb up or one can park close as well.
Igor F — Google review
One of the best works of the brilliant Czech architect with Italian ancestors, Jan Blažej Santini-Aichel, is one of the most original examples of the so-called Baroque Gothic, that you can see only in Czech. In an incredibly elaborate building a number of symbols and religious and historical messages is hidden. The symbols are dominated by the tongue, the five-pointed star and the number five. The foundation of the church was connected with the forthcoming beatification and canonization of John of Nepomuk. Construction began in 1719, in 1922 the church was consecrated. Tip: if you are not a fan of mass tourism, I recommend special winter visits. In sunny weather, the church and the surrounding countryside have their charms, plus instead of buses full of tourists, there were around twelve of us here. Not only was it time to see everything thoroughly, but even the guide's interpretation did not have to be like machine gun and there was time for conversation as well. Úžasné dílo geniálního českého architekta s italskými předky, Jana Blažeje Santiniho-Aichela, představuje jednu z nejoriginálnějších příkladů tzv. barokní gotiky. V neuvěřitelně propracované stavbě je ukryta celá řada symbolů a náboženských i historických sdělení. Ze symbolů dominuje jazyk, pěticípá hvězda a číslo pět. Založení kostela souviselo s připravovaným blahořečením a svatořečením Jana Nepomuckého. Stavba byla zahájena v roce 1719, v roce 1922 byl kostel vysvěcen. Tip: pokud nepatříte mezi fanoušky masové turistiky, doporučuji zimní prohlídky. Za slunečného počasí má kostel i okolní krajina svoje kouzlo, navíc místo autobusů plných turistů se nás tu sešlo kolem dvanácti účastníků. Nejenže byl čas vše si v klidu prohlédnout, ale i průvodcův výklad nemusel být strojově odrecitován.

A beautiful old church sitting atop a hill . Sadly has been run down but lots of construction going on to restore it. Makes for a very pleasant walk with nice views all around , up the hill (which is steeper than it looks) around the church yard and back down again. We didn't go inside on a tour as missed the time slot. Worth visiting.
Rick W — Google review
Since this place is already UNESCO heritage, I was very much surprised that the outside walls are in very bad shape and that there is ongoing reconstruction. The church itself is closed in winter, but you can still go thought the main gate of the complex and walk at the yard. Despite reconstruction, after passing through the main gate, one chapel inside of the outer walls was open and available for visitors, especially those that want to pray - there was a maintained altar. The hill itself and the space outside of the complex offer a nice view at the town and the places around. Be mindful when you plan to arrive by car, though. The parking place at the top of the hill is for 4 cars and that parking place is full of locals getting there by car just to go for a walk with their kids. There are additional parking places under he hill, but then you need to walk a bit on the road for cars. This place was not in Waze at the time when I visited the church. Since this is a church, there is no public toilet for the visitors, so count with that. I recommend to check when the place is open, and plan the trip after the reconstruction is done. Otherwise you see a lot of things from construction side mixed with the church view.
Jana K — Google review
Still under reconstruction. I agree that the monument is more impressive from the outside as the inside looks empty with some nice mural. Only gave 3 stars because as a UNESCO monument not accepting euros is acceptable but not accepting card is out of question. So because of that I didn’t see the church on the inside.

Perfect for family retreats. The hotel Kocourkov features themed rooms which are a lot of fun for all ages. There is an attached patio and children can have fun in either outdoor or indoor playgrounds. Additionally there is a nature walk with fun elements in the forest. The restaurant Peklo (hell), is a themed restaurant featuring a show in the themed space bellow the restaurant. This is often connected to buffe styled dinner with plenty of choices. Great fun for all ages. Also this fall (2023) they will be opening a themed spa.

Absolutely amazing experience! Me and my British husband got picked on by the handsome devils, which made it all the more fun. Then again we have a good sense of humour. Everything is well thought out, the decor is amazing and the actors are just fantastic. The only slight let down is the service in the restaurant, the food was very good, again the decor fantastic but the service wasn’t in line with the prices. Overall I give 5 stars because it was a great day out and we will probably be back. Thank you.

David B — Google review
There are two aspects to this place. First is the fun of having the demon actors making fun of the visitors by throwing insults left and right. If you like that type of humour, this is a good place for that, but it was not our type of fun. However, to each their own. We could look past it if not for the second part, which was was the obvious intent of the owner to engineer revenue from every visitor by forcing you into places where they can present their coffee and then ending the tour in the cafe where you are coaxed into buying a drink. And this is only one example of the approach shown through the whole experience. After the effort made by the tour guides/actors/demons it really cheapens the experience and makes the whole thing a disappointment. The place is full of interesting things and many opportunities for someone to spend money of their free will if presented in a non manipulative or non assuming way. It really is too bad. To top it off, the first person you come in contact with (the one running the reception/register) was arrogant and rude. Overall great idea with truly poor execution of a customer experience.

Pernštejn Castle is a well-preserved hilltop fortress with towers and ramparts dating back to the 13th-16th centuries. Guided tours are available, offering insights into the diverse and interesting rooms, their history, and filling. The castle has been continuously expanded over the centuries, making it an intriguing place to explore. Visitors can enjoy an easy uphill climb from the parking area for about 5-10 minutes before reaching the castle.
I was extremely surprised how beautiful the castle is! With the kids we took the shorten tour (55 mins) and they love it. The tour-guide was patient and very kind. After the tour, we visited nearby restaurant and the food was delicious. Can't complain to anything.

Impressive and unique castle. Looks like straight from a fairy tale. Last tour at 4, Castle closes at 5. Friendly staff all around. The younger staff speaks English but the tour was Czech only. You get a written guide though in your language. We've been there off season and parking was free at 5. The tour shows the history of the castle and medieval life. Very interesting.
Ronny F — Google review
To reach the castle, you park your car and take a locomotive-style tour bus to the entrance. You buy a ticket from a machine. The round-trip price is 90 CZK per person. The driver helps you buy your ticket. After arriving at the entrance, you walk up. There are different tours. We chose the longer one, which takes around 80 minutes. It costs 260 CZK per person. I've visited many castles in the Czech Republic. The guides speak in Czech, and foreigners are given notes in English. This was the first time a guide understood the English notes we had and explained some things to us in English. This is how it should be everywhere. We felt absolutely at home and understood that we were valued. My esteemed guide friend, Aleš, is the most successful and professional guide I've seen in the Czech Republic. Thank you and I appreciate it. After the tour, you can eat something or enjoy a drink while enjoying the view. The castle is beautiful, the atmosphere is beautiful, everything is beautiful; it's a must-see.

One of the best narative experiences. Not very much actions, but you can enjoy the view, the animals on the farm, the restaurant and the specific shops. The best part is touring the castle, where princesses will guide you through the fully furnished rooms, and tell the stories of the old times.

The castle is beautiful and well-maintained inside and out. The guide speaks in Czech throughout the tour. His words are given in English as written notes, which you can read from there. Even though the guide knew there were foreigners in the group, he didn't say a word. We missed the jokes. :) Still, it was worth seeing. You need to buy separate tickets for the exterior and the interior. It costs approximately 1,000 Czech crowns for three people. Parking is limited, and the fee is 70 Czech crowns.

Room was small but it was filled with antique furniture which I liked. Nice clean air and total silence at night. Most interesting part for me was to be inside of the castle when the gate was closed. In the morning, castle is nearly empty so it felt like the whole garden was ours. There is nothing much to do other than hiking and to chillax. Overall it was a memorable stay.

Castle is ok, I would say average. However guide was a bit weird, if I compare it to other guide experience I would say it was deep below average. But a great highlight especially for families with children is 1) parking lot right in front of the castle, 2) children playground 3) animals in the outer ring right within walls.

An interesting place not only for children. Large enclosures for animals are well equipped. It is possible to climb to the highest point of the park in a special trolley.

I recently had the opportunity to volunteer at Brno Zoo, helping with cleaning and maintenance, and I also spent time exploring the zoo afterward. The zoo is impressively wide and spacious, offering plenty of room to roam and discover a vast variety of animals. It truly felt like a well-maintained and safe environment, both for the animals and the visitors. Volunteering gave me a closer look at the effort that goes into keeping everything clean and comfortable for the animals. I highly recommend visiting if you want to see diverse wildlife and enjoy a safe, welcoming outdoor experience.

Smaller, more walk-y zoo. Student ticket price is very nice. I visited on a winter weekday and it was almost completely empty, which I really liked. From what I saw, there seem to be places to sit, eat or drink, but I only noticed one souvenir shop. My biggest point of excitement was the amount of uncommon animals we saw. Thing is, I'm not sure a casual visitor cares about the 6 different types of pigeon or lizards that one cannot see much elsewhere. The enclosures are decent from what I can tell, it didn't look like any of the animals suffered. I also liked that many animals got very close to the visitors and seemed somewhat curious. I'll probably visit again in the summer. One note I should mention - when I was visiting, the polar bear exhibit was closed and so the route was interrupted. Plus points for a zoo cat that crawled into my lap while I was sitting around, minus points for mice in parrot enclosure
Elajz M — Google review
I was quite affraid to visit this zoo after reading some bad reviews but after all was not dissapointed at all. Really cool perspective that it is located on the hill, I could've never imagened how good it would look and especially feel for animals who are tend to live not on the flat terrain. Yet it is quite outdated with some trashy benches but on other hand it is very organic and creates great atmosphere. There were SOME exhibitions closed but still plenty to see. We couldn't managed to go everywhere with our 2yo in 3 hours! Plenty places to eat, for kids to play and just relax. Not too crowded. Littlr train is great idea when you have small kids but it would be great if it was electric one, not the stinky.

A nice science museum, nothing more. Maybe I didn't read the recommendations well before, but in my opinion there's not much for older children (over 12) to do there. We were there for barely an hour, my kids got bored quickly (12 and 15 years old). I gave it a 4, but that's barely enough.

Absolutely loved it! VIDA! Science Centrum in Brno is a fantastic place for curious minds of all ages. While it’s not massive, it’s packed with hands-on exhibits and interactive displays that make learning incredibly fun. Whether you're into physics, biology, technology, or just love to explore how things work, there's something here to capture your attention. You can easily spend an entire day here without getting bored.

So many things to explore for both young and old! Endless interactive activities that will keep your kids busy for hours! There is also a cafe area upstairs where you can relax and the kids can play in the kids corner near you. Definitely worth a visit!

To my six-year-old daughter, VIDA is the coolest. Despite being in one giant room, the exhibits are diverse and interactive. You can make a tornado, test electricity, make paper airplanes, and so much more. The highlight was the art area with every type of supply imaginable. You get to take home the art you create! There’s an outdoor area, a two-level slide, a cafe that sells ham and cheese sandwiches and popsicles.

Moravian Karst

Nestled just north of Brno, the Moravian Karst is a stunning natural reserve that boasts over 1,000 caves and gorges spread across an impressive 92 square kilometers. This remarkable area is renowned for its geological marvels, including the enchanting Punkva Caves with their striking stalactites and stalagmites, as well as underground rivers and sinkholes.
One of the most beautiful places near Brno. Amazing views inside the cave and also guided tour in Czech and English languages. I would say it is quite rare to see well preserved karsts nowadays, which makes them more unique. I would also recommend to book tickets to the caves in advance.

I purchased ticket for interesting little train, as from a fairy tale in advance. This train takes you within 20 min ride to Punkovne Jeskine caves. You can also walk however you’ll need an extra condition for it, walk takes ca 50 min. I purchased ticket for the cave also in advance, because I do not want surprises. The tour inside cave was fantastically organized. Its beautiful stalactites can be seen by the boat ride, then you start walking when you reach the little lake, its mesmerizing blue color visible by sun rays touch so make sure you go there around 2pm.

I went on a tour in English with Rostislav Janis via Get Your Guide for “Discover Moravian Karst: Seven stops, one Tailored Tour” and it was by far the best thing I could have done. So beautiful and professionally managed. The Churches and caves were particularly beautiful.

Fantastic nature. It's worth to visit of you want to have a pleasant walk and see the beauty of nature. I can't help but share that the guides of the caves are not polite persons. They don't speak English or just a little. They don't know the worlds "please", "thanks". They hurry you and turns of the lights.

One of the best trips. absolutely Loved the cave. if forests and caves are any interest to you and you are visiting Brno City then Moravian Karst is a must visit. I visited in Jan 2022, it was super cold and snowing but absolutely beautiful forest to see and hike. During winter the only cave that was open for public was Punkva which is the largest among the five caves that are located at the Moravian Karst. i have read that the five caves are open for public visit during summer only. the Moravian Karst is located very near to Blansko town ( usually a train goes from Brno to Blansko, but during my visit the trains wasn't working so took Itook the bus ) the trip by bus/ train from Brno to Blankso is about 30 min ride. then when you arrive to Blansko its around 25 min ride via a taxi/ car to arrive to the Moravian Karst. there is no public transportation that goes there so having a car or a taxi is a must if you cant walk for that long. if you are a tourist and don't speak Czech, then i highly advice to book a taxi in advance before your arrival, because its very hard to find people who speak English in Blansko, also when i arrived it was Sunday and there were absolutely no taxi driver anywhere close to the station. the town was very empty not sure if it was because of Sunday or this is the norm there. Uber, Bolt and any other similar services doesn't work there as well. ( you can find taxi companies online that you can call and book in advance ) when you arrive to the Moravian Karst there is an internal train that picks you up from the information office to drop you at meeting point for the tour to the cave. please make sure to arrive before your tour at least 45 min in advance. if your tour is starting at 12 then arrive at 11.15 latest. i arrived 25 min before my tour starts to find that the train has already left so i had to wait for two hours+ for the second tour to go. the tours are only in Czech language but even though i didn't understand what the guide is saying i did enjoy the tour a-lot as the cave absolutely looks magnificent. Booking in advance is a MUST. as there is some days/ times where there is no tours at all. so make sure to book your ticket in advance before your plan your trip. I rated it 4 out of five because the tour wasn't well organised at all and there was absolutely no information that i need to arrive more than 30 min before the tour or i will miss the train. it should have been written in the website instead of making visitors wait for more than two hours for the next tour.

A beautiful place to walk. The tram/lift to the top is fast and allows you to look into the abyss you will see later on the tour. The tour is through a narrow walk way with many stairs, and a boat ride! Loved this tour. It was in Czech, but our friends translated the important parts. Nice gemstone gift shop, too.

This was one of the best experiences ever! We had a guide take us from Brno to the caves. So glad she handled the specifics. (as most areas there cash is king) We took the little train up to the cave entrance. The English phamplet described each spot perfectly. The boat ride out was awesome! Seeing the bottom of the abyss was beautiful! We rode the cable car up and viewed the abyss from above. Overall nice experience and peaceful. Would strongly recommend.

A very amazing place which you must see if you are close to Brno. And remember to book the tickets in advance, because you will otherwise risk to wait for several hours before you're granted access.
