Explore several breathtaking viewpoints, among which the most stunning overlooks the Elbe Canyon, the largest sandstone canyon in Europe. From a height of 200 meters above the river, behold the beauty of Saxon Switzerland National Park - the table mountains of Lilienstein and Königstein with its impregnable fortress. Witness two icons on Czech side - the Rosehill and the highest table mountain in Bohemian Switzerland, Snowhill.

Then walk across this magnificent Bridge perched high above the river Elbe. This awe-inspiring landmark holds the distinction of being the first tourist attraction in the region, constructed in 1851 to connect the rocky peaks with Neurathen Fortress. Prepare to be marveled by its architectural wonder!

You need to recharge your batteries, so the next stop will be a traditional Czech and locally renowned restaurant. A rich "a la carte" lunch will be a welcome and well-deserved reward. Traditional Czech and international dishes are served (including vegetarian options). We highly recommend trying Czech beer, which is one of the best in the world. This restaurant is very popular with the locals and has the best reputation in Bohemian Switzerland. We are always very welcome at this restaurant and we have a pre-booked table in the best place that will be waiting for you ready before our arrival. In addition, we have an advantage over other guests in the kitchen, so the wait for food is significantly shorter.

And as you know, no one can take the experience away from you.

Had an amazing tour led by Josef and Monika. We stopped at three different sites and had a very very very nice lunch. From the outset the team were very nice, warm and welcoming. The vehicle was stocked with water, snacks and had WiFi. The sites were really beautiful and Josef set a nice pace. He was really aware of anyone falling behind and always went back to walk with them. On the second stop which has more inclines he stopped several times. The final stop was well chosen as well because it was going down hill rather than up which is good because the second was mostly incline. They understood people would more tired so it was a really good choice. Also Monika is an amazing driver. Felt really safe with her. Josef was also so knowledgeable which gave so much more to the trip. They dropped us of right at the hotel. Everything was on time as well andnthey also gave us recommendations of places to visit around Prague Overall Great Hosts Great Sites Great Food Loved it!!
