Tour Options
Itinerary
The tour begins by picking you up at your Dresden hotel, Airbnb or elsewhere in Dresden. Our comfortable vehicle will then transport you to the German part of the National Park. The snacks and beverages along the way in combination with an informative description of the passing landmarks will make the journey over in no time.
Our first destination is the magnificent Bastei Bridge (Saxon Switzerland, Germany). The breathtaking view of the Elbe River Canyon, high above which the Bridge perches, will be engrained into your memory forever. Watching the sunrise above the unique sandstone pinnacles is a priceless experience.
The easy scenic walk across the Bastei Bridge is finished by an excursion of the medieval castle ruins of Felsenburg Neurathen (13th cen.), located at the other end of the Bastei Bridge.
The following jurney takes us over the border to the Bohemian (Czech) part of the National Park. The 2km hike navigates us to the Pravcicka Gate. Approaching it from below, you will see the majesty with which it stands at the top of the surrounding landscape. It is the symbol of the Bohemian Swizerland National Park and you will know why, once you see it.
Within seeing distance from the Pravcicka Gate is our traditional Czech restaurant. A rich 'a la carte' lunch will be an appreciated reward. Both traditional Czech and international dishes are served (vegetarian options available). The tour will end by dropping you off in Dresden at your accommodation or elsewhere in the city.

We loved this trip. It was my second time but this time I brought my kids. Our guide Joseph is the best. My kids had so much fun and Joseph went above and beyond to make the trip special and fun even helping my family find gluten free food. I’ve used Uniline before so chose to use them again and Joseph. Great decision. When I come back to Prague will book another trip!
Hello, firstly, say hi to your family! Secondly, we are extremely happy you had a great time with us once more! The chip on our shoulder, from reading your review, is like pizza-sized :)
I suppose that the success of this tour depends very much on the weather. We were extremely lucky as, although mid-December, the weather was extremely kind. Walking over the Bastei Bridge and later in Czech Bohemia would have been difficult in heavy rain and dangerous in heavy snow. The tour itself went exactly as advertised we were picked up at our hotel in Dresden and driven to the Bastei bridge. There, our small party of three was amalgamated with a larger group of eight from Prague. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and he and our driver from Dresden professional and solicitous. Snacks and water were included as was a good hearty Czech lunch - including beer! The only word of advice for those thinking of undertaking this tour is that it does require a significant amount of walking over terrain which is often uneven and rocky. Those that find such activities challenging should probably best avoid it at any season. Those that are confident and reasonably fit walkers will find the scenery spectacular and the guides knowledgeable, enthusiastic and professional.
Thank you kindly for your review!
An amazing trip - so glad we did this. As it turned out we were the only ones on the tour so we had a private tour. Our guide, Jitka, was amazing - she tailored the hikes to our ability level and was so patient and helpful, particularly in the steep step climbs where the ice made things a bit perilous for two elderly women. The views and the rock formations were absolutely amazing - made all the more magical with the snow.
Your feedback inspires us to continue delivering top-notch service. Thank you for being a valued guest."
I cannot say enough great things about this tour!! We had the pleasure of spending the day with Joseph Squared - they are incredibly knowledgeable and engaging and sooooo much fun to spend the day with. The sights we saw were very beautiful and we plan to return to the Czech to enjoy more of the scenery! We also had a fabulous lunch experience! Top notch day!
