E Bike Day Trip I Visit a Roman Castle and Taste Craft Beer
Description
Bike like a local, to a microbrewery! You will ride along rivers to Karlstejn Castle and than further through forgotten countryside to the microbrewery. Locally made beer tastes so good after a bike tour! Sure, Prague is full of bars and pubs with great and cheap beer. But no beer tastes better than freshly poured in a microbrewery. After years of riding and years of tasting, we know the best place to go! …and because here in the Czech Republic bike belongs to our life in the same way beer does, we believe this is one of the best ways to spend a free day. “A lot of kilometers had to be ridden and a lot of beer had to be drunk in order to prepare this tour.”

Itinerary
The Karlstejn Castle is one of major tourist attractions in the Czech Republic. The castle is really worth seeing but it's too busy to grab lunch here. That is why we only make a quick stop and go on riding to the great Vserad brewery, which is a real contrast to Karlstejn - laidback, quiet and packed with locals.
This is a great chance for a refreshment, at the back side of a medieval castle, in a local cafe. This cafe is very popular for the local cyclists and they serve great coffee and home made cakes!
We will bike to a cozy village ov Vseradice, where the Vserad brewery is located. We will eat our lunch here and sample the local beer(s).

We had a fantastic time out on our e-bike trip. Martin was very helpful from start to finish and gave some excellent recommendations. A great way to explore the countryside and see the castle.
We had an unforgettable experience biking 21 miles through the stunning Bohemian Paradise with Martin’s Adventures. Martin went above and beyond by accommodating us last minute and organizing a private tour just for my friend and me — and it couldn’t have gone more smoothly. The bikes were nice! The route was breathtaking, with incredible scenery the whole way. We stopped for a delicious lunch at a castle (yes, a literal castle!) which added a magical touch to the day. Martin’s knowledge of the area, easygoing nature, and attention to safety made the entire experience feel fun, personal, and well-guided from start to finish. Highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for adventure, nature, and a unique way to explore the Czech countryside. 10/10!
My wife and I took the self guided bike tour to Karlstejn castle, using the supplied Garmin navigation. The route was easy to follow, and being self guided, we were able to explore off route ( Marina, Renice ) along the way. ‘Pivovar Revnice’ , a bike friendly brew pub recommended by Martin, had delicious local menu items. Big “Thank you” to Martin for providing hotel pickup, great conversation, quality well maintained bikes , and an adventure option away from the crowds.
Martin is an excellent tour guide and a great guy! My son and I throughly enjoyed our tour. Highly recommended! You won’t be disappointed!
Great ride in a beautiful country. Bike was nice and we'll maintained. Excellent customer service! Route was a great mix of single track, gravel and pavement to connect it all.
Late cancellation morning of due to “illness”. Saturday morning tour. “Illness”. Very frustrating. Therefore we really can’t rate it due to this but it just felt like either we were the only ones scheduled or the driver partied the night before.
Dear Jeff, Once again I apologise for your bad experience and I'm very sorry for not being able to host you! I know it sounds like a bad excuse although our driver actually got sick! I've tried to rearrange things to be able to host you but sadly it was not possible this time and I was personally guiding another trip that day. We have issued a full refund to you and I will be hatty to host you another time - please reach out to me directly next time when you're in Prague and we will offer you a same or similar trip with a 50% discount to partly make up for your bad experience. Safe travels! Best regards, Martin Skuhravy, owner
Oustanding trip - even in 90 degree heat! Our guide, Vojta, was very informative and willing to adjust the tour (contacting us for an earlier departure due to heat and shifting return route a bit). We ended up with a three person tour which was amazing! We rode about 45-50km using e-bikes for the first time (we are fairly experienced riders) and are now converts to these). Our ride left from the S of Prague and went along several rivers and through lovely small villages. Most riding was on tarmac with some on dirt paths/roads. We had some really lovely views of Karstjen Castle and fields and hills in the Cesky kras area. It was great to be able to stop for pictures at will and ask lots of questions. We enjoyed our lunch at a brewery and then biked to where we took a train back to Prague. I would strongly recommend and do again. Vojta was a great guide! He also sent us pictures and recommendations for things to do in the city as well which were very helpful.
First off my tour guide Monika was amazing, she did a great job from start to finish and she did it all with good humour and grace. She even gave me some tips for getting around Prague and recommended some cool things to do and eat. The bike tour itself was fantastic, bright and sunny day, not too many hills and the castle was beautiful. The brewery had some great beer and food as well. 10/10 would recommend
Everyone should take a bike ride through the Czech countryside! It was an amazing day. Our guide Lucie was punctual, friendly, and such a great leader on our trip to Karlstein castle and to lunch! I was impressed with the knowledge and all of the trails/bridges/pathways for cycling on this trip!
Great bike ride along the river into the countryside outside Prague. A good workout but not overly strenuous. Great lunch and beer at a local brewery. Our guide Lucie was very well organized, gracious and capable.
