Marek is an excellent guide! We enjoyed how he kept the tour going at a good pace while also allowing plenty of time to take in the scenery. He took pictures for everyone in the group and shared points of interest and history as we passed relevant sites. At the restaurant (which was delicious!), he made great reccommendations regarding which traditional Czech dishes to try. At every turn, he kept us informed of what we were doing and where we were going so that we always knew what to expect. The Bohemian Switzerland Park and Bastei bridge were phenomenal sites to see! Pictures don't begin to do it justice, but suffice it to say this tour should be on your bucket list for sure!

A gorgeous walk. While not stroller friendly, it is well marked in Czech, Polish, and English. While not free it is very reasonable (cost about as much as a couple of soft drinks). The trail is cobble stone initially, then changes to gravel. In then areas that are eco protected in is raised wooden structured. The entire walk is very relaxing BEAUTIFUL view of nature. You have the option of climbing 300 steps to a birds-eye view on top of the mountain. The view is awesome but not for the faint of heart.
