We are excited for our upcoming Blue Danube cruise in July 2025. We arrive a day early yet I have so many things that I want to see in Prague so I need help figuring out how much time we have and try to efficiently tour the city:
Day 1 is on our own so I need to know how much free time we have for afternoon activities and reservations.
1. What is the meeting time for dinner at the Castle?
Day 2 the morning Tauck city tour itineraries mention “comprehensive tour of Prague’s well preserved Old Town focusing on the historical architecture of the city.” We want to prevent seeing the same things twice AND see places NOT on the itinerary as we tour on our own Sun & Mon.
2. What exactly is the tour route/stops?
Day 2 the afternoon is on your own, but docs reference “After lunch on your own, continue your exploration of Prague with a guided tour of Strahov Monastery, including a private visit to the famed library. If you wish, you will also have the opportunity to see the interiors of the magnificent Gothic gem St Vitus Cathedral whenever possible.”
3. What are the times for these?
4. Are we bussed there?
5. Does the St Vitus Cathedral visit include access to climb the tower?
Thanks for any insight you can share!
