The guide will explain about the history of all the sights and give general information.

Prague Castle Tour

Prague Castle should be the number one tourist destination for any school trip to Prague. It resembles a small town itself as it is the largest ancient castle in the world, measuring a whopping 570m long and on average 128m wide. The Czech kings, Holy Roman Emperors and presidents of the Czech Republic all used the castle as a place of work.

The guide will explain about the history of the Jews since the 2nd World War. The tour includes entrance to the Maisel, the exhibition space and depository of Jewish Museum.

River Cruises on Vltava River

Many of Prague's famous sights border the river so a river cruise is a great way to see the city. Attractions include Charles Bridge, Prague Castle, Prague Parliament, the National Theatre and Vysehrad Fortress. A one hour cruise is a great sightseeing option or take a two hour cruise with buffet dinner as an evening activity.

Ice Hockey Match

Czech ice hockey is among the world's best, and though the nation's superstars mostly play in the North American National Hockey League, the domestic O2 Extraliga offers the ice hockey experience at great value prices and is a great way to entertain your students in the evening.

Black Light Theatre Show

Language barriers are not a problem with this typically Czech art form, as most of it is pantomime. It is played out in a varied programme of shows and takes the audience on a path from total darkness to vivid lights and colours in the extreme. The intense darkness of black theatre adds to the fantasy.
