Czech Republic History Educational Travel

 

PRAGUE

 

As a refreshingly alternative learning experience to the classroom, why not take your history students to the attractive, exciting and stimulating city of Prague? Its inhabitants have experienced a declaration of independence, Nazi control, brainwashing, communism and capitalist democracy - and all this was just in the 20th century.

Charter a boat for a dinner cruise along the River Vltava and marvel at the multitude of monuments and statues along the way. After a guided tour of the historic sites of Prague, spend an afternoon soaking up the breathtaking views from the magnificent cliff-top outlook of Prague Castle. With a thousand-year history and breathtaking scale, qualifying it as the largest ancient castle in the world, Prague Castle is the indisputable centrepiece of the Czech Republic.

No matter how long or short a tour you can manage, you will never be short of things to do and see in this historical capital. And with Good King Wenceslas as its patron saint, perhaps a winter visit combined with the Christmas Markets would be just what your class needs for added motivation over the festive period.

Groups are based on the outskirts of Prague in the well-managed and fully modernised Hotel Rhea. The Rhea is a large, youth group friendly hotel in pleasant surroundings with good public transport links to the city centre.
