Overview

Add Germany to your Prague stay on a day trip to Dresden and Bastei Bridge, combining grand architecture with dramatic sandstone scenery. Travel with up to 8 guests on our small-group tour, accompanied by a friendly local guide who shares the stories and looks after the details.

Discover Dresden’s royal past and remarkable rebuilding through landmarks such as the Frauenkirche and Zwinger. Enjoy time to make the city your own, with your guide’s recommendations for lunch and exploring. At Bastei, the famous stone bridge and sweeping views above the Elbe Valley bring the beauty of Saxon Switzerland into focus.

Enjoy a thoughtful balance of guided discovery, photo opportunities and free time, with transport from Prague taken care of. Choose a private tour with your own guide and vehicle, more flexibility and a pace that suits you.
