Bohemian Switzerland (Czech side) and Saxon Switzerland (German side) are national parks known for dramatic sandstone formations, gorges and Pravčická Gate. Day trips from Prague take you there by coach or minibus; some cover one park, others both in one day. Bring a passport for trips that cross into Germany.

Why take a Bohemian or Saxon Switzerland day trip?

The parks are a long drive from Prague; organised day trips handle transport and guides so you can focus on the views and the walking. Small-group options keep the group size down. Trips that do both countries in one day are full-on but show the best of the region.

  1. 1Meet in Prague and travel to the park region (about 2 hours).
  2. 2Walk and explore with your guide—Pravčická Gate, gorges, viewpoints.
  3. 3On two-country tours: cross into Germany for Saxon Switzerland.
