Prague Castle

We tend to avoid tours, preferring to bumble along at our own pace and not getting bogged down with too much information that you are never going to remember anyway. Today's experience only strengthened our resolve. We got sucked in by a glossy brochure for the "Ultimate", all inclusive day tour of Prague. Suffice it to say that it was the ultimate rip off tour of Prague. I won't go into a great rant, and I am sure that some of the other day tours would have been pretty much the same, but not at an 'Ultimate' price.
It wasn't a total disaster, we saw and learned a lot (even if trying to understand the guides heavily accented english was tiring) as we walked and trammed and boated our way around the city. I really like the vibe of the place and from all we have learned it was such a sad place for so long when the Russians were about the place. There is no hiding the enormous hostility the Czechs feel toward the Russians and there delight in seeing them go.もっと詳しく
