Karlovy Vary Full Day Tour from Prague
Description
Walk during this day trip along the world-famous spa. Karlovy Vary is the most famous spa town in the Czech Republic, the history of the city dates back to the 14th century, the time of Charles IV. The curative effects of the local mineral springs were used as treatments on greats such a Tsar Peter the Great and the writer Goethe. One of the most famous attraction is the Hot Spring that spews boiling healing water up to a height of 12 m. In the city you can look forward to a wide range of historical and modern colonnades and taste water from several natural mineral springs. We recommended to taste delicious wafers and traditional liqueur Becherovka, made from a unique blend of herbs and spices. Tour could be operated bilingual.

Karlovy Vary is a beautiful, interesting spa town in Czech Republic. They say drinking the thermal mineral water in karlovy Vary is a recognized centuries-old healing practice. The tour is educational and a fun one.
Dear guest, thank you for your positive review, we are glad you had a great time! -Astrid
Basically you were driven there - 2.15 minute drive. Given a short walking tour down the main streets and left to your own devices until pick up time.
Dear guest, thank you for your review. We are sorry the tour was not up to your standards. There should definitely be more to our tour than merely what you described. We have discussed the situation with our guide to assure it won't happen again. -Astrid
Great guide, Veronika Slavikova! Terrible bus and bus driver!! The bus was uncomfortable, seats too close to each other, no recline, no foot rest, no utility table. No AC, no ventilation, because the driver didn't know how to turn on the fan, let alone the AC. The slowest vehicle on the road! It took about 3 hrs to get to Karlovy Vary, but since the return time wasn't changed, we lost about an hour of the tour.
Dear guest, we apologise for your experience. We will investigate the situation so we can prevent any similar one from occuring in the future.
Awful bus, worst driver, essentially lost one hour of the tour because the bus was slower than anything else on the road. It got to 26° inside because the driver didn't know how to turn on the air conditioning or even ventilation. The bus was most uncomfortable it was just five of us on a bus that holds probably 30 people if not more. seats very close to each other no foot rest, no table. Do not take this tour!
Dear guest, we apologise for your experience. We will investigate the situation so we can prevent any similar one from occuring in the future.
Driver refused to answer 2 questions I asked about number of travellers and ignored me. Surprised no return to my hotel.
Dear guest, thank you for your review. I am sorry your driver ignored your questione, this attitude will not be tolerated. Concerning the return journey, as it is stated in the tour discribtion, the tour ends at our meeting point, it the rule for all our outside-of-Prague tours. Hope you could still have a good time! Kind regards, Astrid, Best Tour
Beautiful town, nice architecture, colorful buildings. Definitely take the funicular to the Diana Tower for a spectacular panorama view of the town.
Thank you very much for your review. We can not wait to see you again. Best regards, CA BEST TOUR, Natalie
Perfect place to walk solo wondering the area and the tour guide is very knowledgeable about the place they give us more time to explore the place on your own after a brief explanation about this wonderful place.
Thank you very much for your review. We can not wait to see you again. Best regards, CA BEST TOUR, Natalie

Thank you very much for your kind words. We can not wait to see you again. Best regards, CA BEST TOUR, Natalie
I really enjoyed my visit to Karlovy Vary, despite the rain! Our guide, Oleg, was excellent. He gave us lots of information en route and then guided our small group through the town, visiting various springs and pointing out film locations. Karlovy Vary is both walkable and very pretty . We were given the option - owing to the bad weather - of shortening our visit, but no one wanted to! I enjoyed wandering around, found a cosy café for lunch and bought a few mementos. The rain stopped eventually, making a walk by the river an attractive prospect! The driver very kindly dropped me off at my hotel as we were passing, although this wasn't included, unlike pickup. All in all - a lovely day ; I definitely recommend this trip.
Dear guest, thank you for your feedback, we will take care of it. Best regards CA BEST TOUR, Katarina
Nice town did not expect to see such a wonderful sight pick up point was far from hotel even if they offer hotel pickup, you then find you have to walk for 25 min in out case, after I complained they picked us in a taxi, so well done.
Dear guest, Thank you for your review. We are so sorry for the difficulty at first, however we are glad it worked out in the end and you enjoyed your tour. Looking forward to seeing you again! Kind regards, Natalie, Best Tour
