Recommended excursions
Prague Castle
The Defenestration of Prague took place at this huge and ancient castle, an event that sparked the Thirty Years’ War, drawing many of the states of Europe into conflict and playing an important role in modern understandings of statehood. After touring the castle, students can reflect on the roots and possible causes of the conflict.
Boat tour on the River Vltava
Take to the River Vltava for a most relaxing way to take in the sights of Prague. Choose from a traditional steamer or cruise boat for a view of the city from the water. The English translation brings the sights to life such as National Theatre, Prague Castle and Charles Bridge.
Alfons Mucha Museum
Take a guided tour of this museum, dedicated to the life and work of the famous Czech art nouveau artist Alfons Mucha (1860-1939). It is housed in the baroque Kaunický Palace in the very heart of Prague. Through paintings, photographs, charcoal drawings, pastels, lithographs and personal memorabilia, students can gain insight into Mucha’s world.
Charles Bridge
This magnificent 14th century stone bridge is the main pedestrian route connecting the Old Town with the Lesser Town and Prague Castle. During the day you can join the crowds watching the street performers and enjoy fairy-tale views of the city skyline. Early morning and evening are good times to come for a relaxing stroll and admire the bridge’s 75 statues.
Sparta Football Stadium
Come to the home venue of Sparta Prague and the Czech national football team and find out about the running of this 20,000 capacity ground. Gain an insight into the experience of fans, players and staff on a tour that reveals how a major stadium runs as a business and broadcasts games.
Tip: The stadium took its current shape in 1994, when it was extensively renovated.

We were able to make the best of the trip using Prague cards for travel and access to galleries and museums. The coach trip out of the city gave students a better perspective of the country and see some excellent examples of architecture and art work.
