About this activity
Day 1: Prague - Sedlec - Kutna Hora - Žďár nad Sázavou (Zelena Hora) - Třebíč
After 8am hotel pickup in Prague, meet your guide, and settle inside your private, air-conditioned minivan, equipped with chilled water and WiFi.

After a roughly 1-hour journey, arrive in Sedlec, and visit the town’s cathedral and ossuary. Head inside the ossuary to survey its famous furnishings and chandeliers, all made from the bones of more than 40,000 people.

Next, continue into UNESCO-listed Kutná Hora, a prosperous silver mining town in medieval times. Here, visit the spectacular St. Barbara’s Church, dedicated to the patron saint of miners, and admire the Church of St. Jacob, dating from 1420.

After a traditional Czech lunch, travel to Zelená Hora, the site of the extraordinary Church of St. John of Nepomuk, the 14th-century saint of Bohemia. Wander around the 5-pointed star-shaped complex, learning how it was built by the famous 18th-century Czech architect, Jan Santini-Aichel.

Then, venture into Ždár nad Sázavou, and visit another Santini-Aichel masterpiece: Ždár Chateau. Rebuilt by Santini-Aichel in the early 1700s, this baroque gem was once a 12th-century Cistercian monastery. See the main church, prelature, dormitories, well chapel, and fishponds, and learn about the monks' daily lives as you explore.

Finish with a drop-off at a quaint guesthouse, and after dinner at a local restaurant, enjoy the evening independently.

Overnight: Guesthouse in Ždár nad Sázavou area

Day 2: Třebíč - Telč - Červená Lhota - Prague
After breakfast, leave at around 9am for Třebíč, home to one of Europe’s best-preserved old Jewish quarters. This West Moravian town was founded in the 12th century when a Benedictine monastery was established here.

Explore the UNESCO-protected Jewish quarter, with its narrow lanes, synagogues, and cemetery, and learn how it testifies to the co-existence of Jewish and Christian communities.

Continue to the chateau of Červená Lhota, a converted fortress with a recorded history dating to 1465. Admire the picture-perfect building set on a lake, and after a break for lunch, drive to Telč, famous for its Italian Renaissance architecture.

Stretch your legs on a tour of Telč's UNESCO-listed old town, viewing highlights like the pretty cobbled square, framed by pastel-painted houses. Legend says Telč was founded when the Moravian prince Otto II won a battle against Břetislav, Prince of Bohemia, in 1099.

Your tour concludes with an early evening drop-off at your Prague hotel or a central Prague location of your choice.
