Destinations
Czech Republic
The Czech Republic is home to some of Eastern Europe’s finest treasures, with more than a dozen UNESCO World Heritage Sites around the country. Although not a large country, the Czech Republic has a long heritage and you will discover cathedrals and medieval villages wherever you travel.
It is also a country of green valleys, beautiful snowy mountains and vineyards too with ski resorts and spa towns offering great value for money to travellers. Invigorate yourself at the spa resort of Karlovy Vary, discover the forested mountains and gorges of Sumava National Park and explore the underground caves of Moravian Karst.
With so much to offer, it is little wonder that holidays to the
Czech Republic are fast becoming a big attraction in Europe.

Prague is constantly buzzing with visitors who come to marvel at the medieval architecture, winding streets, cobbled squares and impressive monuments. Wenceslas Square is home to Prague’s most elegant cafés and hotels and the perfect place for a glass of famous Czech beer. The Old Town, which is over 800 years old, Lobkowicz Palace with its collections of Mozart and Beethoven music manuscripts and St Vitus Cathedral where saints, kings and princes of Bohemia are all buried, are among the great attractions in this historic city.
