Bohemian & Saxon Switzerland from Dresden

You came to Dresden for the galleries and the Baroque old town. This is the day you leave the city behind — for the sandstone canyons across the border where painters of the Romantic era found their motifs and where scenes of The Chronicles of Narnia were filmed. No rental car, no timetables across two countries, no wrong turns on the trail. A local guide who grew up in these valleys picks you up at your hotel, walks you across the Bastei Bridge, up to Pravčická Gate and through the Tisa Rocks, sits you down to a proper Czech lunch — and has you back in Dresden by evening. Just the day, handled.
