Prague day trip to Bohemian and Saxon Switzerland. Hike Pravčická Gate, tour Kamenice Gorge by boat, see Bastei Bridge, lunch included.

“Mirek our guide for the trip was awesome. The day we went it was foggy which made the Tisá walk really atmospheric- and even more so that there was only one other group we crossed paths with. Bastei Bridge was more popular with light crowds but the view from the observation bridge they have there was incredible! I would say that a moderate fitness level is needed for Tisá as the ground is uneven and there is slight elevation when you walk up to the upper circle. Comfy shoes are a must. I believe the walk is based on group ability and pace which was perfect for us. The restaurant…”

From Prague, hike Saxon and Bohemian Switzerland, cross Bastei Bridge, chase Pravčická brána, boat the gorges, and eat well.

“A well-organized and comprehensive full day trip to an incredibly beautiful area. The evening before the trip, I received a text message with detailed information for the following day. Ondrej picked me up from the hotel right on time. The scenery is stunning, but read the description carefully, as parts of the route are steep. The trip is manageable if you have a good basic fitness level. I really enjoyed the trip; the guide was very knowledgeable about the area and its history, was easygoing, and did his best to please everyone.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 458 reviews · 13 hours · from $157

A 13-hour small-group day trip from Prague to Bohemian and Saxon Switzerland, with Bastei Bridge, Wild Gorge boat ride, and Julius photos.

“I have been through many day trips earlier but I can say that Martin has been the best so far. The trip itself needed some hiking but Martin through his guidance and care made it look easy. Then he arranged a professional photo session through his dad (a highly accomplished photographer) as well !!! Also the lunch he arranged at a local pub was simply delicious. Also so thoughtful of him to give us some gifts and souvenirs at the end of the tour. For anyone visiting Prague, I would highly recommend taking this tour with Martin Pufler otherwise the Prague visit will remain incomplete”

He really puts careful thought and effort into his tour. One of the best tours I have taken, and not just for the breathtaking scenery. Also, his English is flawless and his interests, broad. A real Renaissance Man. Delightful to spend the day with.”

Door-to-door day trip from Dresden to Bohemian and Saxon Switzerland, featuring Bastei Bridge, Pravčická Arch, and gorge boat rides.

“The trip was excellent due to the guide Anna and the itinerary by the company. There was much to do/see and thankfully the breaks driving to each location and lunch provided needed rest. The most exciting part of the trip was going to Bastei, the rock formations + bridge were incredible, and the least favorite part was the gorge + boat cruise (mostly the boat cruise since it was a bit short and not much to see)”

The second spot location at Batsei bridge was great as well with wonderful views! This tour is highly recommended!”

“This tour was fabulous. Our tour guide Marek was fabulous, informative and paid attention to our needs. Due to maintenance works on the trail to Pravcicka Gate, they offered an alternative tour to Schrammsteine and Bastei which were just as good. Lots of walking, lots of climbing up rocky trails and ladders, and the views were spectacular. Marek was supportive and positively patient when i needed a bit of extra time to climb the steeper areas, and ensured i had time to rest when i could. I was so pleased that i was able to see these views, i had worked very hard for a year to prepare myself and…”

“We had a great day with Robert on our tour! Our stops at Terezin, Tisa, and the Bastei Bridge in the national park were a helpful combination of heavy and restorative. Robert gave us a ton of recommendations for places to check out in Prague, and he took many great photos during the day for our memories. I’m particularly grateful to Robert for fielding our many questions in our group’s discussions of Czech history and culture; I really loved getting to hear about his experiences and perspective. This tour was a favorite part of our visit to Prague.”
