What to bring
-
Choose comfortable walking shoes, as both towns have uneven cobblestones, sloped pathways, and large pedestrian zones.
-
Pack a light jacket or warm layer, because temperatures in South Bohemia are often cooler and windier than in Prague, especially near the river or in shaded parts of town.
-
Carry a compact umbrella or raincoat, since quick rain showers can occur at any time of year, and covered spots may be limited.
-
Bring a valid ISIC card if you plan to use the student discount, as it must be shown before the tour begins.
-
Bring personal essentials in a small day bag, as large luggage is not suitable for walking through narrow streets and historic areas.
What's not allowed
-
Large suitcases or bulky luggage cannot be taken on the tour vehicle or through the historic centers, so only bring compact personal items.
-
Food and drinks are not allowed inside specific museum interiors or chateau areas when open for viewing.
Accessibility
- This tour is not wheelchair accessible, as both towns have steep inclines, uneven cobblestones, and narrow medieval streets that are difficult to navigate.
