Czechia · SAXON SWITZERLAND DAY TRIPS
One sandstone park split by a border, with Europe’s largest natural rock arch on the Czech side and the Bastei bridge on the German one. These 12 full days differ on how much walking they ask of you, and it is a lot on some.
Review of the Prague to Bohemian and Saxon Switzerland day trip, with Bastei Bridge, Czech lunch, hiking options, price, and practical tips.
“The experience brought me back to Narnia. The rock formations were jaw dropping. But what amazed me more was the attentiveness of our tour guide, Tomas, to our safety. He had snow spikes and hiking poles as needed.”
Spend a full day from Prague hiking to Pravčická Gate, cruising Kamenice Gorge, and crossing Germany’s Bastei Bridge.
“It was a very enjoyable and unforgettable trip. Our guide, Warren, was very knowledgeable and he would show us so many things that we wouldn’t probably see or think. The hike can be a bit of a struggle for people with bad knee like me and it’s already a pre-warning by the company but somehow what I saw and experienced, it’s worth all the struggle! Unforgettable sights! Lunch of local cuisine also very nice, many options given. If you’re reading this, Warren, thank you for such a memorable trip for us and also the other couple. Trip was unforgettable and informative but also you made it fun!”

“This was one of the best trips I had done in Prague. Everything was so seamless, from the pickup to the drop off. The coach ride was very smooth as well and the guide was extremely friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend this trip to everyone! Just be careful, requires a lot of uphill and downhill walking so prepare yourself accordingly.”

Review of a full-day Prague tour to Terezín, Tisá, Bastei Bridge, and Dresden, with meals, hotel pickup, and a small group.
“Absolutely recommend!! If you would like an excursion outside of the city, this is definitely the one to do. Peter is an amazing guide, extremely knowledgeable about all the places you visit and about Czech history in general. Even just driving through the city towards the first stop was fun. The visit to Terezin was deeply moving and impactful. Combining it with the other scenic walks later in the day was a perfect balance. There may be other tour groups that do a similar itinerary but this is absolutely the one to book. Nothing compares to a day with Peter!”
Hike through Bohemian and Saxon Switzerland from Prague, crossing Bastei Bridge, seeing Pravčická Gate, enjoying lunch, and riding a boat.
“Adam was our guide. He did an amazing job. We travel with two kids and hi make everything extra special for them. The hiking was easy and super fun.”
Cross the Bastei Bridge, hike Bohemian Switzerland, enjoy Czech lunch, and ride through Wild Gorge on an all-inclusive day from Dresden.
“The trip was excellent due to the guide Anna and the itinerary by the company. There was much to do/see and thankfully the breaks driving to each location and lunch provided needed rest. The most exciting part of the trip was going to Bastei, the rock formations + bridge were incredible, and the least favorite part was the gorge + boat cruise (mostly the boat cruise since it was a bit short and not much to see)”
Review of the Prague to Bohemian and Saxon Switzerland tour, with Bastei Bridge, Pravčická Gate, lunch, hikes, costs, and practical tips.
“My guide was Ondrej Maly. He is very knowledgeable about the history of the places that i was visiting. The journey to Saxon is like entering another world. The trees were covered with ice but not from snow. It was from water condensation that were frozen due to low temperature. The walk in the Saxon was very fascinating for me especially entering the paths in between the rock formation. The lunch was awesome although I opted for vegan menu. I was served mushrooms deep fried with thin batter and boiled potatoes mixed with butter. Desert was pancake with raspberry filling, sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon. Next stop was the Bastei…”

Review of the Dresden Christmas Market and Bastei tour from Prague, with transport, timing, food, guide quality, costs, and practical advice.
“This trip is well worth the price. It’s an entire day almost 11 hours including driving. The bridge was breath taking with jaw dropping views. We were lucky because it was a sunny day for us. Lunch in Pirna was delicious, restaurant picked by our tour guide. Then we headed to the Dresden Christmas market which was another breathtaking experience. Our Tour guide Rob gave us a short walking tour and then gave us nearly 3 hours free time. Speaking of Rob, one of the best tour guides we’ve ever had. Knowledgable, friendly, great photographer, and a fantastic driver.”
