Overview

Leave the busy streets of Prague behind and enjoy a private day trip to the cultural jewel of eastern Germany — Dresden. Known for its stunning baroque architecture and rich history, this city offers a perfect blend of elegance and resilience. With hotel pickup included, travel in comfort in a private vehicle with an English-speaking driver-guide. Once in Dresden, enjoy a guided walk through the historic Old Town with highlights like the Zwinger Palace, Semper Opera House, and the iconic Frauenkirche, beautifully restored after WWII.

You’ll also have time to explore at your own pace (around 4 hours) — shop, visit museums, or stop for lunch by the Elbe River. On the journey to Dresden, choose to add an optional stop at Bastei Bridge in Saxon Switzerland National Park, one of Germany’s most breathtaking natural sights. This private tour offers the perfect mix of culture, history, nature, and comfort — all in a single unforgettable day.
