Český Krumlov Full-Day Tour

Explore Český Krumlov, the second-most visited sight of the Czech Republic with a rich architecture and history (10 hours)

It will be our pleasure to help you get acquainted with the second-most visited sight after Prague. Český Krumlov is an exceptionally beautiful city, and its historical center belongs to UNESCO, just like the center of Prague. The Vltava River flows through the Český Krumlov as well as through Prague. The history of the city began about 770 years ago, when Vítek of Krumlov, from Vítkovitz family, founded it. Several other noble families, such as Rožmberks, Egenbergs, and Schwarzenbergs, picked this city as their main residence from which they managed their vast estates.
The sixteenth century was the most important epoch for the town. Vilém of Rožmberk rebuilt most of the city in the Renaissance architectural style. He invited to Český Krumlov the most famous alchemists of the time, such as John Dee and Edward Kelly, who tried to create a philosopher's stone, or transform various natural elements into gold.
