We've made our tour logistics as convenient and reassuring as possible, starting with a direct pick-up from your accommodation in Prague.

Next, we'll continue with a challenging but rewarding hike to the Pravčická Arch, Europe’s most impressive natural sandstone arch, offering an unparalleled photographic opportunity.
