Join our virtual walking tour, broadcasting live from the Český Krumlov Castle in the Czech Republic. Together we will explore an iconic gem of the Renaissance era. Our camera-led live virtual tour will weave through the winding streets of this charming town – a UNESCO World Heritage site with so much charm it could readily play host to a fairytale story. 

Our time together will begin with exploring the castle gardens and their gorgeous fountain displays. This palace is one of the largest aristocratic residences in Europe with one of the world’s best-preserved Baroque theatres. Following our virtual tour of the castle, we will stroll through the picture-perfect historical city center for 360º views of the local lifestyle. Our guide will also recommend medieval restaurants and hidden charms which will be must-see landmarks during our future travels to the Czech Republic. We will discover the secrets of the annual festivals the village hosts, as well as the notable historical characters who have resided there throughout the centuries.

Led by an expert on the history of art and architecture, PhDr. Katerina Prusova, Ph.D., this immersive experience will transport viewers to one of the most spectacular destinations in the Czech Republic. Participants will come away with a working knowledge of how to navigate their way through this fairytale landmark in the heart of the nation.

Meandering Through Česky Krumlov with Katerina Prusova

She did an excellent job balancing the historical background with a casual walk through the town. Her level of knowledge was exquisite but she knew how to explain everything in an understandable manner. It was a very impressive presentation and we are pencilling in a trip to the Czech Republic on our travel itinerary.
