About this school trip

Prague is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe and ideal for a study trip on European history, architecture and literature. On the hill above the Vltava stands Prague Castle, with St Vitus Cathedral and the Old Royal Palace. In the streets below, Gothic, Baroque and Art Nouveau flow seamlessly into one another, making the city an open-air architecture lesson.

In the Jewish Quarter, Josefov, your students visit the Old-New Synagogue and the Old Jewish Cemetery, among other sites that are part of the Jewish Museum in Prague. The Museum of Communism shows what life was like between the communist takeover of 1948 and the Velvet Revolution of 1989. Because these subjects can be hard-hitting, we recommend good preparation in class and a debrief afterwards. For literature, Prague is the city of Franz Kafka.

We are happy to take care of the transport to Prague for you and your students. We spread the drive over the day with plenty of rest breaks. In our comfortable coach with an experienced driver the group travels safely to Prague and back.
