Nina Prague Guide

Sightseeing transfers in Europe (a door to door service)


I am aware that often tourists wish to combine their visits to Prague with visits to Vienna, Salzburg, Budapest, Dresden, Berlin, Munich, Nuremberg, or Krakow. I know that especially among the American tourists are very popular the river cruises on Danube River or Elbe River. If you are planning to visit any of these cities on Danube River or Elbe River, or if you are planning to visit any other city in Central Europe like Krakow, Munich, etc., I can offer to you a sightseeing transfer. The distances to different cities around Central Europe are rather short. Dresden, from Prague, is almost as the Czechs say around the corner. It is very common among Czech people to go for a day trip to taste the Sacher Cake in Vienna. The driving time from Prague to other cities in Central Europe is short (Prague – Dresden: 2 hours, Prague – Nuremberg: 3 hours, Prague – Munich: 4 hours, Prague – Berlin: 3. 5 hours, Prague – Vienna: 3. 5 hours, Prague – Budapest: 5 hours, Prague – Salzburg: 5 hours).

In my personal opinion, if you plan to go, for example, from Vienna to Prague, it is better to go by car or van and stop on the way in Cesky Krumlov or Trebic and Telc and see some of the beautiful places on the way and enjoy the countryside, than to spend a day at the Prague and Vienna airports. Airports are the same all around the world, but when you decide to take a sightseeing transfer, you will see many interesting places on the way.
