You’ll ride from Prague to Vienna with a local driver, stopping for two hours in Cesky Krumlov’s storybook streets. Taste fresh pastries, climb up to castle views, and soak up small-town Bohemia before continuing south—a journey you’ll remember long after you arrive.
The first thing I remember is the way the Vltava curled around Cesky Krumlov, like it was hugging the whole town. We’d left Prague that morning, a bit sleepy, our driver Jan humming along to some Czech radio. He pointed out fields of yellow rapeseed outside the window—said they’re everywhere in spring. I didn’t expect to feel so awake by the time we rolled into that little town, but something about seeing those red roofs stacked up under the castle just did it.
Jan dropped us near the old bridge and told us not to miss the bakery on Latrán Street (“best koláče in Bohemia,” he swore). The air smelled like river water and fresh pastry, and there were kids chasing pigeons in the square. We wandered through narrow lanes that felt almost too small for cars—cobblestones underfoot, a bit uneven, so watch your step if you go. I tried saying “děkuji” at a souvenir shop; Li laughed when I butchered it, but the woman behind the counter smiled anyway.
The castle really does loom over everything. We climbed up for a view—windy up there, hair in my eyes—and looked down at all those orange rooftops and green hills beyond. It’s only two hours in Cesky Krumlov on this private transfer from Prague to Vienna, but honestly? That quick stop stuck with me more than most full days elsewhere. Maybe it’s because we weren’t rushing for trains or flights; just drifting between cities with time to actually see something in between.
