I was in Prague on a bus tour, on the first day there was a sightseeing tour of Prague, you can go see, listen to various legends and stories about Prague and its sights. The excursion to Karlovy Vary was not impressive at all, maybe because it was winter, and there were no people there at all, it felt like it was just a small town for pensioners. Then there was an excursion to the Krusovice brewery, we walked around the plant and tasted it at the end. I liked the excursion to the Kostnitsa (a building made of human bones) very unusual. I think that the cruise on the ship and the trip to Vienna should be pleasant: Vienna is a very beautiful city, and a short trip along the river will be a pleasant pastime anyway :)

a trip to Vienna is a waste of time and money, it takes a long time to go, and there is very little time in Vienna itself, galloping through Europe, as they say, we went in May, it was warm, there were a lot of people, we didn’t really see anything, so, if only for checkmarks were in Austria))) But I recommend to Dresden, the travel time is short (about 2 hours), but the city is beautiful, one Dresden gallery is worth something, and there is enough time to take a walk, see, this one impressed us city.

1. The magic and mysticism of Prague - an evening tour, just wonderful, it will tear a little away from reality.
2. A boat on the Vltava - nothing special, but you can go on your own, and not with a group - the result: cheaper, but the effect is the same, as they say.
3. Beer tour - do it yourself - taste different types of beer in bars, buy in your room, and spend time on the tour in the Old City - you won't regret it!
4. The pearls of Moravia - if I'm not mistaken - these are castles, for lovers - this is it! Very colorful and fabulous.
5. Excursion to Cesky Krumlev - a pretty resort town, there is a desire - go ahead to discover the most beautiful Czech Republic!
6. Vienna - absolutely not, there will be no time to fall in love with this city and want to return there many, many times! Better take a walk in Prague! For Vienna, you need a separate tour for 2-3 days minimum.
7. Karlovy Vary - I personally adore this town, but my husband did not like it at all, he said that he would not go there again! I've been here 5 times already and I want more! A city in which the rhythm of life does not change, always calm and measured
8. Dresden - yes, if you are there all day, I repeat again - a few hours is a minuscule.
9. Walking tour - I recommend!

I recommend Dresden (be sure to visit the gallery), Karlovy Vary, Krumlov. And it’s not interesting to go on walking tours in Prague in a group, I advise you to lay your own routes, pretty streets, small shops, cafes, pubs, fountains, parks - acquaintance with Prague is better in person. It is also interesting to visit the Prague Zoo, its visit is not included in standard excursions, but the place is wonderful, you can spend the whole day there. A boat trip along the Vltava is possible for a change. Walk along the Charles Bridge. I wish you a good rest.

I recommend everything from the above, except for the ship, the beer tour and Karlovy Vary. nothing to do in Karlovy Vary. This is a spa town for people with indigestion. There you can only buy cheaper Becherovka. The ship is nothing special. ride and everything. but the beer tour is not at all clear: why take an excursion if there are beer pubs at every step in Prague? if you want to taste real beer - listen to the voices of visitors. where the natives drink - there means good beer. but in general, I didn’t really notice bad beer in Prague. fresh everywhere.

Regarding Karlovy Vary, I do not quite agree with Alexey1983. It is indeed a small town, but so beautiful and peaceful!!!! There you can buy not only Becherovka, but also wonderful waffles, which are amazingly baked there. You won't find these waffles anywhere else. Before you buy, you will be given a taste!!! There is also a Czech cosmetics store, where a woman will definitely buy quality products (decorative, cosmetics, medical, shower products, oils, toothpaste, etc.) You can also visit the pool (with mineral water) in the open air. True, I don’t know if he works in the summer or not, because. the water there (at least it was in autumn) is warm, so it's not cold to swim. If there is time left, you can go to the Elephant cafe, where an episode from the movie "17 Moments of Spring" was filmed. Plus, there is a very well-groomed area with flowers and flower beds!!! I really liked this tour, I will definitely go there in the spring!!!

Dresden is a very interesting trip. It all depends on how much free time you get. We had 3 hours - this is negligible. First there is a sightseeing tour of the central square. We got an excellent guide who speaks excellent Russian, tells us very interestingly. Further, whoever wants to visit an art gallery costs 20 or 15 euros. It’s also very interesting, I don’t understand anything in the visual arts, but I was delighted with the way they presented us with a story about some of the most famous canvases. More free time. You can visit the Porcelain Museum, the Cathedral, the Armory and much more. Finally have a bite of the famous German sausages and drink beer!!! We didn't have time for everything!

1. Magic and mysticism
- I would go, but it all depends on the guide. I was on a similar excursion in Krumlov, I really liked it.
2. ship
- Consider an alternative - rent a catamaran. IMHO it's more interesting :) And take a bun on the catamaran to feed the swans and ducks;)
3.Beer
- Don't waste your time, it's better to do it yourself.
4. Moravia
I haven't, but I think it's interesting.
5. Gluboka and Cesky Krumlov
- I was very pleased. The most wonderful pictures from my trip to the Czech Republic. And by the way, if you go - souvenirs are cheaper in Krumlov :)
6.Vienna
- It will be a gallop...
7. Karlovy Vary
- I don't know, haven't tried (s)
8. Dresden
- I think it's worth it. I didn’t get to Dresden, but I would like to :)
9.Vyshegrad, Petrin, "Troy"
- The places are interesting, but I don’t see much point in the excursion. It's all within the city, look on the map for the nearest metro / tram station, sit down, come and walk. Before Petrin and Vyshegrad we generally reached from the center on foot. On Petřín, you can climb the observation tower and look at St. Vitus Cathedral from above.
In any case, try to leave at least 1 full day for yourself to walk around Prague - the Old Town, Mala Strana, Embankment. It's worth it!

I would exclude from your list, ygarnada, beer tour, Vienna, Dresden and Detenice. If you are going for a week, then you have planned too many field trips! There will be little time left for Prague itself! (IMHO)
to Anni - Cafe Elefant in Karlovy Vary has nothing to do with the film "17 Moments of Spring"! This beautiful story was invented by guides to attract tourists! Although this cafe is really worth a visit!

From the list I advise the castle Gluboka nad Vltava and the city of Cesky Krumlov, Karlovy Vary - this is a classic. In addition, go to the sightseeing auto-pedestrian tour of Prague and see everything related to Prague at once. It is not on the list, but if you have time, go to Kutna Hora, it is close, it will not take much time, and in the evening you can catch a boat. I advise you to go to Vienna overnight, the city is very beautiful and large, there you need to visit the Schönbrunn Palace outside the city, and because of the long journey you won’t have time to do everything in a day.

The beer tour is a very interesting excursion. Yes, in Prague, beer is good on every corner. But only during such an excursion you will see how beer is brewed, learn to understand the main varieties (not only Czech), get acquainted with the traditions and rules of tasting, learn about history. It is important that the guide be professional. You can also walk around Prague on your own, but is it more interesting with a guide? Dresden is a wonderful tour - 2 hours on the road, you can visit an art gallery or a treasury, shopping is not bad. Vienna minus is that it takes more than 3 hours to drive, and the city itself is beautiful and pretentious - the capital. empire. Karlovy Vary is the charm of a European resort. Krumlov is a wonderful, medieval fortress, the amazing curves of the Vltava, and a frozen history. 9. Walking tour "Many faces of Prague": Vysehrad, Petrin, castle "Troja" - this tour is worth a visit if you are already in Prague for the fifth time and everything else is already familiar to you. It is better to go to the zoo on your own, for example, in Prague it is wonderful.

I want to say that the Czech Republic is probably the target city of MegaTour, but the trip and excursion to Dresden was organized for us just as well. Comfortable bus, Wi-Fi (which was not even needed, because there are such beauties outside the window!) And interesting stories from the guide. Vacation was a success!

Somehow I accidentally stumbled upon your group on VK when I was looking for a photo of Prague using hashtags. Since then, I have already visited two of your excursions - Mystical and Survey! Both liked it very much. I don't want to stop there))) So wait in the near future! Přeji si úspěch!

All excursions are worthy of attention, with the exception of Vienna - probably more time on the road than in the city itself. From what we were: Karlovy Vary - I liked it, but I don’t see the point of going with a tour, it’s better to take a bus on your own (Flixbus, for example), it will turn out cheaper. We also combined this city with the castle and the town of Loket, there are only 12 km. Really get it done in a day. In Visegrad and tasting)) - also by yourself. Were still in Dresden, with a tour it is really more profitable in terms of money and more comfortable. Free time is not so much, but tolerable, enough for the gallery. It's definitely worth a visit once. One more thing: Karlštejn Castle - under its own power, a beautiful castle, we did not go inside. The zoo is really worth it, even for those who have already been to different zoos. We were all highly advised by Krumlov + castle, but we left this trip for the next time.

Excursion from Prague to Krakow and Olomouc is something incredible. I could not even imagine that Krakow could be so beautiful, the architecture of the city is mesmerizing. On my own, I would not have been able to find so many interesting places of historical significance. Thanks to our guide for the tour, which turned into a holiday. Positive impressions are enough for the whole year.

In Mega Tour, the price is 100% consistent with the quality of the services provided. My husband and I were on an excursion Venice + Verona. We were satisfied with everything, took a lot of photos and got a lot of pleasant impressions, and also learned a lot of interesting facts. If you can’t decide, choose this tour, as good impressions are guaranteed.

Good afternoon. I think that the tour of the old city of Prague is one of the best. Lots of unusual and beautiful places. And most importantly, an excellent guide who will turn an ordinary excursion into a real fabulous adventure. We were on the tour "Mystical Prague" with my husband and ten-year-old daughter. Everyone was delighted!

First of all, we want to thank Megatour for an unusual, informative weekend. Of course we were in Prague. In our opinion, this is one of the most beautiful cities with interesting architecture and a fascinating atmosphere. Before going on a tour, we had time to walk around the city and go to a cafe for lunch. My husband and I really liked the puree soup (rich and satisfying). As for the tour, we will remember it for a long time! We came across a very unusual guide, dressed in a skeleton costume (excursion "Mystical Prague"), he led a tour of the most unusual, "mystical" places in Prague. Very unusual!

I think that the bus tour to Dresden is one of the best in Megatour. Dresden is a very beautiful city with interesting architectural monuments. The main thing is that there is plenty of time to see the city (we managed to see the Dresden Gallery - a famous landmark of the city). Impressions left "sea".
