Chronicles of Narnia - Tisa Rocks. If you've seen the movie, you might recall the moment Lucy opened the wardrobe and stepped into a magical winter wonderland. That enchanting forest? It's in Tisa. While hiking around this sandstone labyrinth, you might just feel as if you're sharing the same view as Lucy and the faun.

What a day! The views, the history, the hike. We weren’t lucky with the weather and it was still an absolutely epic experience. Sky was a great tour guide and kept everyone’s spirits up, even through the worst of the weather. I could not recommend this more.
Thanks so much for this great review! So glad the views, history, and hike made for such an epic day even with the rough weather, and that Sky kept everyone's spirits up through it all. We'll pass along your thanks to him!
BOHEMIA Adventures A Fantastic Family Adventure at Tisa Rocks My family and I had a fantastic day exploring the beautiful Tisa Rocks and Saxon Switzerland National Park. Hiking through the sandstone labyrinth was a real adventure without being overly challenging. With our 14- and 9-year-old children, we were able to explore up, through and around the incredible rock formations, which made the experience great fun for the whole family. Lunch was lovely, and the walk through Saxon Switzerland National Park was simply breathtaking. The scenery throughout the day was spectacular and definitely one of the highlights of our trip to the Czech Republic and Germany. A special thank you to our tour guide, Mirek who was pleasant, professional and informative throughout. He kept the whole day relaxed and easy-going while making sure we got the most from the experience. Thank you, Mirek for making it such a memorable family adventure! Highly recommended.
Thanks so much for this fantastic review! So glad the sandstone labyrinth at Tisá Rocks was such an adventure for the whole family, and that Mirek's relaxed, professional guiding made it one of the highlights of your trip. We'll pass along your thanks to him!
The sights were beautiful and the stores of their history were fascinating. From climbing between the rock walls, to looking out at the river from the bridge we all enjoyed our selves to the fullest! And our guide Warren made the hole experience that much more enjoyable, Warren knew every secret the trails were hiding. He told us about battles from ancient times. Even the drive was entertaining and informative. Thank you so much for this amazing experience!
Thanks so much for this wonderful review! So glad climbing through the rock walls, the bridge views, and all that history made for such a full day, with Warren's storytelling — trail secrets, ancient battles, and all — keeping it entertaining from start to finish.

Warren was fantastic. His knowledge on the history of everything we saw blew me away but most importantly was his kindness. He took great care in making sure my grandma was okay. He was great!

Went on this tour with Vladimir. He was knowledgeable about the attractions, a good driver, picked us up on time, communicated properly and planned for our needs in advance. I definitely recommend this tour
Thank you so much for the lovely review! We’re really happy you enjoyed the tour and had such a great experience with Vladimir. We’ll definitely share your kind words with him! 😊
We had a great experience climbing the Tisa Rocks and visiting the Bastei Bridge with Vladimir. Despite the rain, the weather cleared up quickly and we got to see the beautiful views of the sandstone rocks, Elbe River, and the small towns. The food was also very good. Communication with the company and staff was also very smooth and easy. I would recommend this tour for those with moderate walking and climbing abilities. Those seeking a little more excitement could consider other tours offered by the company.
Thank you so much for the lovely review! We’re really happy you enjoyed Tisa Rocks and Bastei Bridge, even with the rainy start. We’ll definitely share your kind words with Vladimir! 😊
Great day out! Could do as much Climbing or not as desired
Thank you so much for the lovely review! We’re really happy you enjoyed the day and could explore at your own pace. 😊 We hope to see you again on another adventure!
Vladimir was a great tour guide and was very knowledgable. It was really enjoyable and worth the money to see the Tisa Rocks and Bohemian Switzerland park. I went with family and we went for the morning and afternoon. It was a small group with 3 other people, so 5 in total. The pickup was very smooth and the journey there was very smooth. Lunch was included and was good. It was raining, but it was still very enjoyable.
Thank you so much for the lovely review! We’re really happy you enjoyed Tisa Rocks and Bohemian Switzerland, even with the rain, and that everything went smoothly. We’ll definitely share your kind words with Vladimir! 😊
