Prague
The first stop on your European excursion will be Prague, capital of the Czech Republic. A city of spires, Prague has a rich history spanning a thousand years, with ornate architecture in spades. The Prague Castle is an unmissable spectacle, especially when it’s lit up like a fairytale fortress and looming above the beautiful Mánes Bridge. Wake up early on the second day and head for Charles Bridge to gaze upon its many statues and touch the Cross of St Jan of Nepomuk. Get acquainted with the history of the Gothic cathedral church, St Vitus Cathedral and the Royal Palace and admire the panorama of Prague from the viewing platforms. Prague is more than a pretty face, it’s also loaded with golden, glorious beer. The Prague Beer Museum has over 30 on tap, and will soon show you why Prague is often considered the beer capital of the world!
Hotels: Hotel U Divadla or
Hotel Union.
Optional Tour: Prague Vltava River Sightseeing Cruise from €15pp.
3-Hour Walking Tour of Old Town & Prague Castle from €25pp.
Vienna
After two or three days in Prague, it’ll be time to take a train to the jewel of Austria - Vienna. With an intellectual legacy made up of Mozart, Beethoven and Freud, Vienna is a place of great thinkers and great expression. On your second day in Vienna, begin with a look around Schönbrunn Palace, the stunning summer palace of the Habsburgs where you will want to see the State Apartments, followed by the Gloriette, the marble summerhouse and the palace's Imperial Gardens. For a true dose of Vienna’s veritable art, check out the collections at Kunsthistorisches Museum, or a much-touted performance at the Viennese Marionette Theatre. For those who can’t decide between comfort and curiosity, why not try both with a sofa boat ride along the Danube? What a time to be alive!
Hotel: Bellevue Hotel or
Novum Hotel Prinz Eugen Wien.
Optional Tour: 2-Hour Historical Sightseeing Tour from €25pp.
Schonbrunn Zoo and Giant Ferris Wheel from €25pp.
Budapest
Another two or three days of taking in the sights later, and you’ll be off to the third and final capital. Budapest is a city that exudes youth and is home to some of the best nightlife in Europe. Embark on a morning sightseeing on the second day of your visit for an overview of the historical city. Pass the Parliament, cross the Danube on the Margaret Bridge to the Royal Castle on the Buda side. For a different sort of tempo, check out Budapest’s District VII neighbourhood and its ruin bars. Each bar is laid back, artsy, funky, and filled with energy, chatter and dancing. The thing that makes them so special is their location - each ruin bar is hastily thrown together in an old abandoned space, filled with alcohol, cheap furniture and art from some of the local talent. Once again you’ll stay in one of two cosy hotels.
Hotel: Hotel Mediterran or
The Three Corners Hotel Bristol.
Optional Tour: Fast Track Entrance Széchenyi Spa Ticket from €20pp.
Hop-On Hop-Off Bus Tour with Optional Boat Ride from €15pp.
