Budapest
  • 3h
Your private driver will meet you directly at your hotel in Budapest. Sit back and enjoy the comfort of your modern, air-conditioned vehicle as you depart Hungary and head towards Austria.

Vienna

On arrival in the Austrian capital, you will be welcomed by your local, licensed guide who will accompany you on a fascinating three-hour walking tour. The starting point is the iconic St. Stephen’s Cathedral, the very heart of Vienna.
Graben and Kohlmarkt
  • 1h
Stroll through Vienna’s elegant historic centre, once the capital of the mighty Habsburg Empire. Your guide will take you along the lively Graben and Kohlmarkt shopping streets, past the Hofburg Palace courtyards and Heldenplatz, and onward to the world-famous Vienna State Opera.
Historic Center of Vienna
  • 1h
Along the way, hear stories of emperors, musicians, and artists who shaped Vienna’s cultural identity. If time permits, enjoy the peaceful green atmosphere of the Stadtpark, where the golden Johann Strauss monument gleams.

The drive takes about 3.5 to 4 hours, with the landscape changing from rolling Austrian hills to the picturesque Czech countryside. Comfort breaks are available along the way. By early evening you will reach Prague, the “City of a Hundred Spires.” Your driver will escort you directly to your hotel for check-in. The evening is at leisure: you may wish to relax after the day’s travels or enjoy an optional evening activity such as a dinner cruise on the Vltava River, a traditional Czech beer hall experience, or a walk across the illuminated Charles Bridge.

Day 2: Day 2: Prague Walking Tour - Free Time - Return to Budapest
  • 7 stops
  • Meals: breakfast
  • Accommodation: Not included
Prague
  • 30m
After breakfast, meet your private guide directly at your hotel or at a central point of your choice. From the very beginning, your guide will set the scene with stories of Prague’s rich past, from medieval kings and Gothic cathedrals to Baroque palaces and legends of the city’s cobbled streets.
Prague Castle
  • 30m
Your tour begins in the Prague Castle District (Hradčany), one of the largest castle complexes in the world. Walk through the vast courtyards, admire the ornate gateways, and see the imposing façade of St. Vitus Cathedral with its towering spires. Learn how this cathedral has been the spiritual heart of the Czech nation for centuries and how kings and emperors were crowned within its walls. Along the way, enjoy sweeping views of the city’s rooftops and bridges stretching across the Vltava River.
Charles Bridge
  • 30m
From the castle area, descend into the Lesser Town (Malá Strana), a area of Baroque palaces, tranquil gardens, and charming squares. As you wander its narrow streets, your guide will point out historic houses with colourful facades, hidden courtyards, and the magnificent Church of St. Nicholas. This area also offers some of the best panoramic spots for photos of the iconic Charles Bridge and the Old Town across the river. Next, you will cross the Charles Bridge, one of Europe’s most famous landmarks. As you stroll along this medieval stone bridge, lined with statues of saints, hear fascinating stories of how the bridge survived floods, wars, and centuries of history. From here, the views of Prague Castle on one side and the Old Town skyline on the other are truly unforgettable.
Prague Astronomical Clock
  • 30m
Arriving in the Old Town (Staré Město), you will step into the lively Old Town Square, surrounded by pastel-colored houses, Gothic churches, and elegant cafés. The highlight here is the Astronomical Clock, which has fascinated visitors since the 15th century with its hourly show of moving apostles. Your guide will explain its unique mechanics and the legends surrounding it.
Prague Old Town
  • 30m
Throughout the walk, your guide will not only highlight the must-see monuments but also share local stories, legends, and personal recommendations for the best cafés, shops, and hidden gems to explore later. The tour is fully private and flexible, meaning it can be adapted to your pace, your physical comfort, and your personal interests — whether you prefer more history, more photo stops, or a relaxed discovery of Prague’s areas.
Prague Old Town
  • 1h
Following the guided tour, enjoy free time to explore on your own or savour a leisurely lunch at one of Prague’s many restaurants. Your guide and driver will be happy to suggest authentic Czech cuisine options such as svíčková (marinated beef with creamy sauce), goulash, or roast duck, paired with the country’s world-renowned beer. This break allows you to experience Prague at your own pace, perhaps indulging in shopping, photography, or a relaxed coffee in a historic square.
Budapest
  • 5h
In the early afternoon, meet your driver for the return journey to Budapest. The drive takes around 5.5 to 6 hours, with opportunities for rest stops along the way. Sit back and reflect on the many memories created during your visit to Vienna and Prague. Arrive back at your hotel or Budapest airport in the evening. Your private driver will assist with luggage and ensure you are comfortably settled at your final destination. End of services.
