V.I.P. Experiences in Prague Enjoy once-in-a-lifetime insider experiences just for


Tauck guests... Most visitors don’t get a private tour inside the exquisite Baroque libraries of Strahov Monastery (right); typically they view the famous libraries only from a doorway. But Tauck takes you in through the back door so you can walk among the treasured manuscripts under that unbelievable ceiling with a local guide (as other visitors look on from the outside). We’ve also arranged an exclusive dinner for you at Lobkowicz Palace (left) at Prague Castle. There you will dine in royal style as few people can.


5.  SALZBURG OR CESKY KRUMLOV With your riverboat docked in Linz today, choose your preferred activity – go on a full-day excursion to Salzburg, Austria, or to Cesky Krumlov in the Czech Republic. A setting for The Sound of Music, Salzburg is enticing with Baroque architecture, painted wrought-iron signage, ornate church towers, and grand palaces. Our walking tour explores Old Town, Mirabell Gardens, and Mozart’s birthplace. Enjoy time on your own to have lunch and experience the sights as you wish; Salzburg holds an important place in the cultural fabric of Austria. Alternatively, travel with us through beautiful landscapes to Cesky Krumlov, which has


been called a living gallery of elegant Renaissance-era buildings. Also graced with an incredibly well-preserved medieval heritage and charming ambiance, the town has earned its coveted designation as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its historic importance and physical beauty. A walking tour takes you to part of Krumlov Castle; it’s worth climbing the many steps to see firsthand the medieval, Renaissance and Rococo design found inside, along with the stunning views of the town below. You’ll have an opportunity to enjoy some free time for exploring before returning to the riverboat in time for dinner. Meals BLD
