Böhmisches Paradies entdecken: Authentische Easy Hike, Schloss & Brauerei

An excellent tour consisting of two very scenic hikes, lunch in a castle, and a private tasting at a microbrewery. The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable, making the 3 hour roundtrip car ride go by fast. I would definitely recommend.

Petr was a great driver and guide. He picked us up exactly on time from where we were staying in Prague and had some interesting things to tell us on the way to Bohemian Paradise. While we were there, he engaged in conversation, while allowing us to catch our breath. The sandstone rock formations were breathtaking. I was very pleased with the lunch we had as well. I'm glad he talked me into trying Svíčková. The pivovar (brewery) tour was intimate and lovely, although a bit far from where we ate lunch. Looking at the route on Google maps, it seemed like we took a detour through Turnov for some reason. Regardless, we had the opportunity to try some good beer at various stages of brewing: toasted malted barley, warm malty water (pre-wort), traditional lager, and even some wheat beer halfway through the brewing process! My travel tips: this truly is an all-day affair. Bring comfortable shoes (hiking boots if you have them) and be prepared to block your calendar for the entire day, from about 8:00 to at least 17:00. Also, the hike may be easy for experienced hikers, but there are LOTS of stairs and steep elevation changes. It is absolutely not a leisurely walk through the woods. Be prepared to sweat.

Petr was a great guide, stopping to explain the sandstone rocks and their history along our hike. While the hike was short length-wise, it was the steepest and most advanced trail, so I would not consider it "easy" as the TripAdvisor title says. The view is worth it, though. Lunch at the castle was pleasant and tasty. The brewer was very knowledgeable and friendly (and the beer very good!), although the drive home was a bit long. Coordination by Jan for door to door pickup was great, it was nice to not have to worry about getting back to our apartment after a long day.

Our guide Jan was very knowledgable, friendly & helpful. The hike was easy going taken at our own pace, we had the trail virtually to ourselves. The views were spectacular & Jan told us about the history of Bohemian Paradise. I would definitely recommend a visit here it’s beautiful & impressive. After the hike Jan took us to a castle which has been converted into an hotel where we had lunch. We were all surprisingly hungry after our hike, the food & beer were delicious. Jan showed us round the museum part of the castle then it was off to a local brewery for tasting & a tour. Again this didn’t disappoint & we all had a fantastic time & came away with our very own special can of lager. From collecting me at my hotel to dropping me off I felt like a was with friends, the whole experience was unforgettable & memories I’ll treasure.

The guide Jan was fatastic so accommodating, knowledgeable and fun everything went well with a small group and what the booking promised we got to experience though was the brewery closed but we got to go to a Czech market and try beer and experience music and local crafts. The food we could choose from was also very good

What a great day! It was wonderful and so interesting to get out of the city and spend time in the countryside. The hike was beautiful and fun, and lunch at the castle was amazing. I was so impressed that Jan included a gluten free option on the menu which few Prague restaurants do. My husband thoroughly enjoyed the brewery tour. A day well spent. Jan was a wonderful host and guide, easy to be around and full of great stories and information. He was also very communicative about details and pickup so we never wondered about the tour. Highly recommend.

Jan was a great guide and gave us history and local flavor throughout the day. If you have the time, I would recommend venturing out of Prague for the day. The food and beer were also excellent!

Great visit into the countryside of Czechia! Loved getting a glimpse of life outside of the big city of Prague. Amazing guide, and a perfect mix of activities. Highly recommend!

If I could rate this experience higher than a 5 star I would. By far the best excursion of my vacation to Munich, Vienna, and Prague. Our host, Peter, was so good and the sites, sounds, food, and beer were unbelievable. This is a MUST book!!

Wow! This is a great adventure. Jan is a skilled, welcoming guide who takes pride in his work and his home region. An unforgettable experience in a remarkable region of the Czech Republic.
