Enchanted little town in the middle of the valley, a must see!

My mother and I booked a last minute trip to Karlovy Vary and fell in love with the town. Quite honestly, I wish you could leave me here permanently! It's a beautiful midieval spa town in the middle of the Bohemian valley, stuck in time, with 18 natural mineral springs and geysers. Absolutely picturesque! We also stopped at the Moser glass factory to see how the famous glass works are made. The only downside is that you don't have too much free time to spend on your own. I don't think the lunch portion is necessary, and then you'd have more free time to explore and maybe visit a spa for a few hours. Regardless, the tour is well worth it. A must see!

Wonderful day trip!

My husband and I had a great time with our guide to this wonderful town! It ended up being only my husband and I going that day so our trip was very personalized. Our guide was very knowledgeable and knew a lot about the town and answered all of our questions. We would definitely recommend this trip to anyone!

The itinerary is well arranged and the tour guide is very professional and very good.

The driver picked us up a little earlier at the designated hotel. After a brief confirmation, we boarded. The trunk is neat. The tour guide detailed the itinerary-related information, including even the social and livelihood information of Prague, Czech Republic. The tour guide is also considerate to the group members. The restaurant for lunch is also good. For group meals, I am satisfied. Overall, the itinerary was well organized and the tour guides were very professional and very good.
