About Prague
Prague is a fascinating city and is regarded as a cultural hub by many. It has been home to many of the Greats including Kings Charles IV, former president Václav Havel, and writer Jan Neruda. Prague Castle, one of the most popular attractions in in the city, is likely to have been founded in the late 9th Century and has been home to many a powerful figurehead, most recently seating the country’s president. The oldest parts of the castle however, haven’t been renovated since the completion of the castle. Every evening the world’s largest coherent castle is lit up in spectacular fashion and the display is a must see after disembarking your coach in Prague. St. Vitus Cathedral is a world famous cathedral, which was built in the 14th Century. The Tomb of John of Nepomuk is located in one of the towers, offering a breath-taking view of the Czech metropolis and the St. Vitus Cathedral itself. If you don’t fancy climbing the tower, then take a stroll along the Charles Bridge. It’s the only way to cross the River Vltava and it also connects the two sides of Prague. Charles Bridge is the oldest stone bridge in Europe, a national monument and a popular destination amongst our coach passengers. The bridge’s construction began in the 14th Century and over the decades that followed, construction continued with frequent renovation, including the rebuilding of the 75 statues, visible whilst walking across the bridge.
