From your hotel in Prague, you'll be joined by a licensed guide on your trip to the twin national parks of Bohemian Switzerland and Saxon Switzerland. You’ll sail on a boat, walk along a river, and marvel at giant sandstone rocks. This is the perfect getaway from bustling European cities.

The first stop is the "Gateway to Bohemian Switzerland," the remarkable Pravcicka brana. Europe's largest natural sandstone arch. As you stand beneath Europe's largest natural sandstone arch, you'll feel like you've entered a fairy tale
