Itinerary
The Karlstejn Castle is one of major tourist attractions in the Czech Republic. The castle is really worth seeing and riding there is the best way to enjoy a must-do day trip in Prague.
This is a great chance for a refreshment, at the back side of a mediaeval castle, in a local cafe. This cafe is very popular for the local cyclists and they serve great coffee and homemade cakes!

A great way to experience the vilage area just out of prague. Although my wife is not riding much, we had great fun. We booked at the last minute and were added to a very nice group. Martin is an excellent guide, fully communicative and flexible with our needs - tayilored the route to our preferences and abilities. We will surely take another ride in our next visit.
The most fun we had on our trip to Prague. Jaro was an excellent guide. Great way to take a break from the city and crowds.
We had a great bike ride! The bikes were in very good condition. The pickup and briefing also went smoothly. We can only recommend!
Thank you so much Ana! Happy you liked our e-bikes and our route with off-the-beaten-path trails!! ❤️ Martin
Great day. Jaro was amazing. He was super familiar with the route. When we had to change our path he knew just what to do. He took pictures along the way and sent to us.
It was an interesting ride along the river with a range of difficulties, sites and experiences. Ben our guide provide plenty of opportunities to stop and look at things, was very supportive to those when needed …. Mainly hills and rough tracks, nothing that a good bike rider couldn’t handle. A bit more knowledge of the area would have been useful. Overall a great experience
very good. We were blessed with the weather and the communication from Martin and Ben was excellent. Great bikes although mine ran out of charge at the end even tho I was not using any where full power which was frustrating . The scenery was beautiful and the castle majestic. Ben was great who picked us up and explained everything. It wasn’t cheap but I would really try it if you are in Prague . Christian and family
Great day-beautiful ride through the countryside- our tour guide Ben was excellent& even pushed 2 bikes up the last hill- great experience-first time on e-bikes-made it so much easier!
We selected this self-guided option to the Castle on the spur of the moment the day before. Martin was excellent and very accommodating. He picked us up from our accommodation and communicated regularly through WhatsApp. His tour was very well planned with comprehensive notes, GPX file and high-end Garmin for navigation. The bikes performed were good quality e-MTBs and performed well. We loved the suggested stops for coffee, cake, lunch near the castle and a stop on the way back at a craft brewery. We opted to ride back but Martin was happy to organise the train and tickets if this was our preference. We thoroughly enjoyed our adventure, would enthusiastically recommend Martins Adventures to anyone looking for a memorable and well-planned experience around Prague. We are already planning our next trip and will definitely be using Martin to support adventure too. Thank you Martin!
We chose the self-guided tour which was perfect for us. Benjamin picked us up near our hotel and drove us to the bike shop where he provided all our equipment, explained how to use the e-bikes, and patiently answered our questions. We set off for the castle and stopped at our leisure to get photos. Benjamin asked us to check in with him once we got to the castle. The e-bike booster came in handy going up the hill towards the castle. We had the option to take the train back to the bike shop or bike on our own. We chose to bike back. Martin’s provided a train ticket back into downtown. Had we chosen to take the train from the castle, they would have done the same. E en though we had a self-checkout experience, Benjamin followed up with us to make sure there were no issues. Overall, a fun day!
Great experience, highly recommended. Bring water and sunscreen. Mostly flat and some hilly single track towrds the castlw. Anna our guide as great. She needs a raise!
