    Your local guide will pick you up from your Prague accommodation early in the morning. Enjoy the comfort of an air-conditioned vehicle while learning about Czech culture, history and the main highlights on your way towards the national park. Taste snacks and enjoy beverages throughout the entire day.  Enjoy an abundance of time to admire the filming sites of the 'Chronicles of Narnia' movie in a group of a maximum of 10 persons. Spend an unforgettable day in the Bohemian and Saxon Switzerland National Park, one of the unique natural reserves in Europe, by choosing one of the following Tour options:  Hiking Tour is the right choice if you want to see the main highlights of both National Parks. Visit two countries in one day. The first destination is the magnificent Bastei Bridge. Feast on the breathtaking views of the Elbe river canyon, surrounded by unique sandstone rock formations. Then enjoy the rolling landscape full of tiny German villages and famous table mountains. The following hike brings you near the main symbol of Bohemian Switzerland - the Pravcicka Gate - the largest sandstone arch in Europe. After tasting the rich local cuisine (lunch included), sail on gondola-style boats through the soothing Kamenice river gorge (12-hour 10-kilometer active hike). Fantasy Highlights Tour brings together the two main fantasy filming sites of the region. Visit the Saxon Switzerland and walk across the magnificent Bastei bridge and visit Neurathen Castle ruins. Cross to Bohemian Switzerland and adore the amazing views from Sneznik lookout tower. Enjoy a tasty lunch (included) in a local restaurant and continue to experience Narnia while hiking through the sandstone labyrinth of Tyssa Walls (10-hour 9-kilometer moderate hike).  Winter Tour is an ideal choice for an active winter visit to the region. Marvel at the beauty of snow-covered sandstone towers. Stroll across the Bastei Bridge to reach the medieval ruins of Neurathen Castle. Enjoy the Pravcicka Gate during the season pictured in Narnia. Hot beverages and a lunch in a local restaurant (included) will help you regain all your energy (10-hour 7-kilometer moderate hike).

    This is a brilliant trip from Prague we could not recommend it enough! Josef was a great tour guide who you could tell enjoyed what he did, on the journey there and throughout the day he was able to tell us about the history and answer any questions we had. Our driver Pavel was great too we were able to have a very enjoyable and fun day out. The whole trip was organized perfectly where we were able to avoid all the large crowds. We were able to do the trip at a pace that suited us while taking pictures and learning more about the amazing places. Every part of this trip the scenery was breathtaking so beautiful. I would definitely recommend wearing hiking boots to be more comfortable on the walks. Highly recommend this tour one of the highlights of our trip to Prague!

    The whole trip was incredible! Our guide, Eduard, picked us up from the lobby of our hotel where we go into very comfortable and spacious transport to Bohemian Switzerland. The car journey to the first destination was just under 2 hours but our guide talked us through all that we passed and gave us lots of information so it went quickly. Each stop thereafter were short journeys and the hiking was achievable but challenging and the views were breathtaking. We even stopped for a very traditional Czech lunch which was included in the price and filled us up ready to carry on our adventures. If you’re thinking about booking this trip - do it! So worth the money and the staff were excellent. Thank you so much Roman and Eduard !

    Be ready for a long walk (some inclines too). Amazing landscapes and scenery. The country side is too beautiful. Katy, our guide was cool and knowledgeable. We had two more families with us and Katy saw to it that all the guys stuck together and had fun. The trip was very well organised. I would surely recommend this team.
