★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 233 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $163Our pick

Small-group day trip from Prague to Koněprusy Caves and Karlštejn Castle, with the America Quarry viewpoint, lunch, and hotel pickup.

“Small-Group Karlštejn Castle and Caves - All inclusive Day trip. This tour was one of the best tours on my 12 trip Adam made sure pace fit the group. He was able to give us information background so we knew what was going on during the time Castle was built. It is an uphill hike to castle grounds but the pace he set worked for me (77). The Castle was amazing just like what you see in the movies but better. Then we went down the hill for a wonderful lunch After lunch it was about a 20 minute ride to caves. I was surprised it was like Carlsbad caverns.…”

“Benjamin picked us up promptly at the prearranged time. He was helpful and informative about the upcoming trip while driving us to the bike headquarters. He walked us through the bikes and how to use them, and even gave us a spare knapsack as we realize we needed another one. The bikes were brand new and fully charged. Benjamin gave us a bike repair kit and first aid kit as well as a navigation device that worked seamlessly during the ride. The bike ride itself took about 4 hours (we were going slow) and was absolutely breathtaking. The views and trail were both phenomenal. I will say that this is…”

“This tour is a great concept, but the execution was horrible. The castle is amazing, the bike ride is scenic, lunch was at a cute restaurant with great food, and the E-Bikes are great for the uphill portions of the tour. Our guide, however, had never led this tour before and got lost at least 10 times, with us having to backtrack constantly. To compound the problem, our guide did not speak Czech, so he could not ask anyone for directions. The tour stated that lunch was on your own, but did not state that the restaurant did not take credit cards. The tour also stated that the tour of…”

Cycle from Prague to Karlstejn Castle along the Vltava and Berounka, then walk up for views, culture, and a guided castle visit.

“The ride was very enjoyable but a little stressful getting out of Prague. The bikes were excellent but if we were to do it again we might choose e-bikes because there were a couple of challenging inclines. The castle is worth the trip with amazing views. Our guide Richard was friendly and very informative. Everybody at the bike shop was also very friendly and they all spoke English.”
