Tour description
Český Krumlov is one of the most magical small towns in Europe, a UNESCO-listed medieval jewel cradled in a horseshoe bend of the Vltava river and watched over by a vast Renaissance castle. Its cobbled lanes and red rooftops look almost untouched by time. On this walking tour a local guide reveals the history behind the storybook beauty.
You will wander the winding old town, cross the river beneath the great castle with its painted tower, and hear tales of the noble families who shaped the town over the centuries. Compact, romantic and wonderfully preserved, Český Krumlov is a place best discovered slowly and on foot.
