Your private guide and driver will collect you directly from your accommodation in Prague. After a comfortable two-hour drive, you’ll arrive in Dresden, Germany, and begin exploring its historic center—beautifully rebuilt from the ruins left by the devastating air raids of World War II.

- Brühl’s Terrace
- The Church of Our Lady – the city’s stone crown
- The Fürstenzug (Procession of Princes) – 800 years of Saxon history in porcelain
- The Baroque Zwinger Palace
- The Royal Palace
- The Semper Opera House
…and more.
