Travel from Nuremberg to Prague with a private driver who picks you up wherever you need. Choose your own 2-hour sightseeing stop along the way—maybe Karlstejn Castle or Pilsen—and enjoy local tips plus help with your luggage. It’s an easygoing journey full of small discoveries you’ll remember long after arriving in Prague.
We were already halfway out of Nuremberg when our driver, Tomas, pointed out the old brewery signs flickering past the window. I’d barely settled into the back seat — still clutching my coffee — when he asked if we wanted to stop at Pilsen or maybe somewhere quieter, like Kladrubsky Monastery. I hadn’t really thought about it until then; honestly, I was just relieved not to be dragging my suitcase through train stations for once.
The road between Germany and the Czech Republic is greener than I expected, all rolling fields and those little villages that seem to have one perfect church spire each. We picked Karlstejn Castle for our sightseeing break. The air there had this damp stone smell (maybe it was about to rain?), and the castle walls felt cool under my hand. Tomas waited by the car but told us where to find the best view — “up the path, past the souvenir stand, you’ll see.” He was right. There’s something about seeing Prague’s countryside from up high that makes you feel like you’re in on a secret.
Lunch was just some bread and cheese from a local shop — nothing fancy, but it tasted better than anything I’d packed. I tried asking for directions in Czech; the shopkeeper smiled politely and switched to English before I could embarrass myself further. It’s funny how these small moments stick with you more than any guidebook fact.
By the time we reached Prague, rain had started tapping on the windows. Tomas helped with our bags and gave us a few tips for getting around (“tram tickets are easy — don’t forget to validate!”). The whole day felt less like a transfer and more like a slow unraveling between two cities. I still think about that quiet stretch of road near Karlstejn sometimes — it’s not something you get on a regular bus ride, you know?
