Cesky Krumlov and Its Castle:
Cesky Krumlov is one of the most popular destinations in the Czech Republic outside of Prague. Its castle and town beg to be explored, and you may be pushing it to try and see all of Cesky Krumlov in one day. Because it is so popular, be ready to battle crowds in Cesky Krumlov during the tourist season, which reaches it peak during June, July, and August.
Getting to Cesky Krumlov:
Cesky Krumlov, though it is popular, is not one of the more easily accessible day trip destinations from Prague. The four-hour train ride and the 3-hour bus ride make leaving early in the day essential. Both of these have drawbacks - the train station is somewhat far from the heart of Cesky Krumlov, and the bus ride requires a transfer. Due to these inconveniences, you may be happier planning to stay in Cesky Krumlov overnight and leaving the next day.
