4 Days in Prague

Prague Castle grounds

We had a wonderful time visiting Prague. As a Travel Consultant I was able to book with a company that specializes in Prague visits. We had a darling women named Gabriela as our private tour guide for 3 days. She was fantastic and showed us why she loves where she lives so much. We , also , had a private driver named Frank. We enjoyed the history and energy of this city.

Key Prague Tourism Fact: in 1992 the historical centre of Prague, all 866 hectares, was listed in the UNESCO World Cultural and Natural Heritage Register.

HOME FROM EUROPE

We had an incredible 3 week trip to Europe. It began in Prague. From there we went to Brussels and Bruge.We then headed to Amsterdam to board the Celebrity Constellation for a Baltic cruise. I am planning on posting segments of our trip each day for the next few weeks. Hope you all enjoy. Our first stop was Prague and what a great experience we had there. We loved this city and all the history there. The people were fantastic. Here are a few pictures that I took on our trip. More to come!
