Holiday In Czech Republic

Looking to trade your flat for a castle, your morning coffee for a beer and that same old lunch for meat-and-carb extravaganzas?

Holidays to Czech Republic are here to make you feel like a king or queen. Prague isn’t all this incredible country has to offer travel to the spa retreats of Karlovy Vary or the frozen-in-time medieval village of Cesky Krumlov for the full tour.

Things to Do in the Czech Republic

In Prague, the constantly changing Lennon Wall in Grand Priory Square is a good place to start your adventure. Take a colourful snap, then add a love lock to the gate (or avoid it altogether, depending on who you’re travelling with!). At the Charles Bridge, you can make another wish come true: Touch the bronze plaques dedicated to St. John of Nepomuk and you’re sure to return to Prague.

The countryside is filled with castles, from the stark ruins of Trosky to the stately Karlstejn. Book one of our Prague car hire deals and take yourself on a tour. Get medieval in Cesky Krumlov, whose cobblestone alleys, white stucco architecture and towering Bohemian castle will make you feel like a time traveller. Prefer natural beauty? The town of Hrensko, on the northern border, is home to Europe’s largest natural stone bridge, which is sure to be an epic selfie.

Shopping, Dining & Nightlife

Traditional marionettes and deep red garnet stones (trust us, they’ll impress your mum) are great buys to make in Prague, and throughout the country you’ll find villages with various specialities. For example, the famous spa town Karlovy Vary in the northwest corner is also known for its crystal glassworks and porcelain, but your snaps of the bright pink and orange architecture could be the favourite souvenirs of your Czech Republic holiday.

If memories count as souvenirs too, then your dining experiences will be right up there. In Prague, head to Old Town for classic dishes like vepro knedlo zelo (pork, dumplings and cabbage—if you can pronounce it), schnitzel and of course, litres of beer to wash it all down. If you’re an “eat your way through your holiday in Czech Republic” type of traveller, check out Pardubice for gingerbread and continue to Olomouc in the east for its famous cheese curds.

Prague is the place to be for cultural nightlife like the National Theatre, where the national ballet and opera perform. Prague is also the place to be for, ahem, less classy pursuits. Find Czech Republic holiday packages near downtown and you won’t have to stumble far to get back to your hotel at sunrise. Outside Prague, Pilsen has a lively pub scene thanks to its invention of the pilsner beer but then again, pretty much anywhere in Czech Republic has a lively pub scene!
