Prague – Vienna – Budapest 7 days EVERY SUNDAY

Arrival in the beautiful city of Budapest. Hotel check-in and free time at your disposal. Overnight stay.

Breakfast and departure for the “City of a Hundred Spires,” Prague. Our first stop is Szentendre, with its medieval atmosphere, a small 18th-century Orthodox church, and narrow cobbled streets. We continue toward Prague, passing near Esztergom, Hungary’s first capital, and Visegrád, the old royal seat. Arrival in Prague, hotel check-in, dinner, and overnight stay.

Breakfast followed by a guided tour of Europe’s most important architectural monument in the Lesser Town (Malá Strana) and the Old Town. We’ll walk from the Gothic Charles Bridge (14th century), adorned with 37 statues of saints and flanked by two Gothic towers, to the Old Town Square with the Town Hall, the famous Astronomical Clock, and the arched palaces. We will visit the Castle District (Hradčany), Prague’s Acropolis — a city within a city. Among other sights, we’ll see the Strahov Monastery, Loreto, the Gothic Cathedral of St. Vitus, the Powder Tower, the Jewish Quarter (Ghetto), the Alchemists’ miniatures, the former royal residence of the Bohemian kings, and finally Daliborka Tower, enjoying a panoramic view of this fairytale city.
At noon, we will embark on a lovely cruise on the Vltava River. Then, departure for Karlovy Vary in Western Bohemia. After a beautiful drive, we arrive at this famous spa town, a meeting point for intellectuals, artists, and politicians. Walking along the central pedestrian street beside the Teplá River, you’ll understand why Czars Peter the Great and Nicholas II, Goethe, Liszt, Beethoven, Bach, and Chopin all once walked here. Return to the hotel. Dinner and overnight stay.

Breakfast and departure for Dresden, the “Florence of Germany.” The Elbe River divides the city into two parts: the old and the new town. This distinction is less relevant today after the devastating bombings of 1945, which altered the city’s entire layout in a single night. Nevertheless, Dresden remains rich in monuments with a great artistic and cultural tradition. Our tour will include the magnificent architectural complex “Zwinger,” part of the 17th-century princely residence, a luxurious Baroque building designed by Mathias Pöppelmann. We will also visit Theater Square with the Opera House and the Court Catholic Church, a true architectural gem by Italian Gaetano Chiaveri. Time for exploration and return to the hotel. Dinner and overnight stay.

Breakfast and departure for Vienna. Upon arrival, we begin our sightseeing tour of the Baroque city of music and waltz. We will see the Ringstrasse with its beautiful park, the Opera House, Hofburg Palace, the Parliament, the City Hall, and the Theater. Optionally (€30 per person including entrance and guide), we will visit the summer palace of Maria Theresa — the magnificent Schönbrunn with its 1,400 rooms. In the afternoon, we’ll stroll along Kärntnerstrasse to admire the grand St. Stephen’s Cathedral. Visit the shops of Mariahilferstrasse or enjoy Viennese coffee at the famous Café Sacher. In the evening, optional dinner at a local tavern in Grinzing.

Breakfast and transfer to Vienna airport. Flight back home with your suitcases full of the best memories from the trip.
