A rich "a la carte" lunch will be a welcome and well-deserved reward. Traditional Czech and international dishes are served (including vegetarian options). We highly recommend trying Czech beer, which is one of the best in the world. This restaurant is very popular with the locals and has the best reputation in Bohemian Switzerland.

Overall, this was an excellent tour. This isn't the sort of tour where a bus drops you off at each location and you walk for 20 minutes total, but in my view, that's a big plus. You do have to do some light to moderate hiking, so it won't be right for everyone. In exchange, you get to see some truly beautiful sights that would be hard to access otherwise if you aren't renting a car. The tour guides were friendly and knowledgeable and the whole experience was comfortable and smoothly run. I'd recommend this to my friends if they were in the area.
