Itinerary
The tour commences by pick ups in Prague city center
Your first stop will be the "Tisa Rocks" national natural monument, located at the heart of the natural reserve "Elbe Sandstones". Your guide will lead you through narrow passages and along bizarre stone pillars, reminding you of a fairy tale land. It is no wonder that scenes from the famous fantasy movie "Chronicles of Narnia" were filmed here. You will have enough time to slowly explore the area and access the tops of the rocks to enjoy the great views.
Transfer from the Czech Switzerland NP to the Germany and it's Saxon Switzerland NP
After a tasty lunch, the guide will take you to the German side of the Saxon Switzerland National Park, to the "Bastei", an iconic rock-formation, medieval times fortress and a stone-bridge high above the river Elbe. An easy walk will take you to the main viewpoints overlooking the huge Elbe canyon with table mountains all around. With good weather, you can enjoy a beautiful sunset from this place as well.

Thank you for an amazing day The spectacular views and wonderful restaurant were first class. Our guide Vojta helped me through the difficult parts and couldn’t have been nicer. I thoroughly recommend this wonderful trip. We had a lovely group on our trip with us It was a special day
Tomas was our guide and we had the best day. He was very personable and super chill. No rush, lots of info, great photo taker and overall great guy. Tour was spectacular- lunch was amazing and the van ride was clean and comfortable. Great adventure- highly recommend
This was my first hike in my life, and i have to say it was one amazing experience. Me and my boyfriend saw awesome views and beautiful nature. We also stopped for lunch and it was so great! Thank you for this adventure guys❤️
It was the best guided tour I've ever experienced. Way more better that Bohemian adventures 👎. Highly recommended, 100% worth
Best guide, now when to not speek. From Norway and the nature speak for itself.
This was a fantastic experience that allowed us to see the beauty of the countryside while we were staying in Prague. We also stopped for lunch at Zlatá Liípa hotel and had a terrific meal there. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, welcoming, and did everything he could to make our experience an excellent one.
Great one‑day trip — beautiful views along the Elbe and a magical, peaceful spot in ‘Narnia’. Friendly staff and everything went smoothly.
This tour was absolutely perfect. The guide was friendly, polite, and fun, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. The hiking trails are suitable for all levels during this season and are easy to walk. I highly recommend it for groups of friends it’s a truly special experience. The group size was around seven people, which made it very comfortable and convenient. Thank you Marek!
Tomas was an amazing guide and wonderful company to spend a day with. Me and my friends had an amazing time with unforgettable views, pictures, and travels. Would highly recommend!! (M25, group of 5)
Martin was our guide for the day, and he was awesome!! Everything was amazing, from the start to finish! Martin was absolutely the best guide—so knowledgeable, helpful, funny, and super patient!! I was nervous about traversing the terrain (icy)… but it was no problem at all with the added gear for our shoes. I am so very happy that we did not miss out on this tour!! Highly recommend!!!
Excellent day with Ondrej today. Excellent tour of two fantastic locations. Knowledgeable confident guide. Food at restaurant for lunch excellent (best food we’ve had since arriving into Prague!) thank you for a great day :-)
Tomas was a great tour guide! Such a nice guy who knows all about the nature and the places we visited. The first part (Narnia) looked amazing in the snow! Also the lunch was great, would definitely recommend!
I did the tour with Martin and it was amazing! The sites are stunning! Martin was very helpful and knowledgeable about the sites and the company was great to book with. I’d recommend this tour anyone I had an amazing time.
Everything was perfect. The guide was great and Everything was fine, no stress. The food and the safety were also very good
Today’s experience with Marek was simply unforgettable. From the moment we began from the pick up right until the drop off at the end of the day the walking/hiking tour, we were immersed in fascinating stories, stunning sights, and hidden details that made the city come alive. Marek’s knowledge was exceptional, and the way he shared it with warmth and humour made the entire journey feel personal and engaging. As a couple, we couldn’t have asked for a better day. Every stop exceeded our expectations, offering not just a glimpse into the history and culture of the area, but also creating moments we’ll treasure. Marek’s passion for the city was infectious, and he went above and beyond to make sure we felt welcomed and included. This walking/hike tour was everything we hoped for and so much more. We would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an unforgettable experience. If you get the chance, request Marek as your guide—he truly made our day extraordinary.
If you are in Prague, whether a fan of the film or not, take this tour. Absolutely stunning views. The winter months brings the scenes from the film more to life. Tomas was a fantastic tour guide. Very friendly and knowledgeable.
Amazing tour worth every cent! Our guide Ondrej was wonderful. Insightful, engaging and accommodating. Being a small group means you get to know everyone on your tour which was lovely. Includes a delicious traditional lunch and all the additionals in the cost (nothing to pay on the day!). The hikes were beautiful and Ondrej made sure to take time to let us get all the pictures and experiences we needed! Would absolutely recommend!
A wonderful day out with fantastic scenery! Lovely lunch in a cosy restaurant, all included. Great tour guide who was very well informed, friendly and professional. Well done guys!
Lovely trip. Very well organized and the locations were amazing. Needless to say in January it’s a bit cold so make sure you are dresses properly. The group size was just right (5 people + guide). Ondrej, our guide, was extremely friendly, kind and knowledgeable. We had a lovely time.
The tour was really great ,peaceful amazing views and the guide super ! Walk was easy , but go prepárate because is freezing .
Marek was an outstanding tour guide! He was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the entire experience engaging and enjoyable. His stories and local insights really brought the tour to life, and he was happy to answer all our questions. He made sure our kids are safe and added some adventure into the tour. Highly recommend booking a tour with Marek!
I received a voucher for any Northern Hikes tour and my mom and I chose the Narnia one (Tisá walls and Bastei bridge)Tomas was punctual and extremely friendly, even from 7:40am! He remembered everyone's name, was super knowledgeable about the area, and gave further recommendations for Prague and Czech/Saxony Switzerland. Some highlights for me were having a little free time at Bastei bridge to revisit lookout points, and having an unexpectedly delicious lunch! I expected a standard tour and this was really above and beyond. We had a great group, but I genuinely have no doubt that Tomas can build a rapport with almost anyone. I highly recommend this for anyone interested in getting outside Prague into nature!
Great guide, awesome trip. Highly recommended. Guide surprise us with dessert for our 31st wedding anniversary. Thank you so much Tomas.
It was very, nice guide was awesome, views were beautiful and food was delicious. Would strongly recommend this tour to anyone
This was one of the best tours i have experirenced. Pavla was wonderfull. Friendly and always sharing interesting information. The locations were amazing. Tisa rocks were some of the most beautifull scenary i have ever seen. Full of snow an frost. It was magical. The restaurant we had lunch was suprising. Great barbecue ribs and the best beer in the Czech Repubic. Bastei rocks and the views over the river were impressive to. I highly recomend this tour.
This was a perfect thing to do for our family - the hikes were beautiful and well organized, and Tomas our guide was a perfect host. Tomas was fun, informative, and personable and made the trip a smooth enriching experience. Certainly a must-do for all visiting Prague.
This was such a unique and fun experience. Tomas was very attentive, funny and kind and he helped bring the nature and history to life.
Unbelievable experience and above and beyond customer service!!! My wife forgot an electronic device on there van, and when it was found Northern Hikes delivered it back to our hotel before we woke the next morning!!! A+++
It was an amazing trip. The weather was beautiful and the photos we took were amazing. So glad we decided to do this! 10/10 recommend.
We had a blast, mainly due to the most awesome guide Tomas! Look, the Narnia and Bohemian Switzerland Park tour have some amazing sights, but without Tomas, it would not have been so much fun! We were really lucky to have a fun, goofy group too, so in between the stellar sights, we managed a few good laughs too. Book this tour, and ask for that sexy-bastard, Tomas. You won’t be disappointed.
The whole experience was top notch. Our guide, Tomas, picked us up promptly at our hotel. He drove us to our first destination, Tisa Rocks, and led us on a great hike with entertaining commentary. After this hike we went to a very nice restaurant with good Czech food. We then went to Bohemia and Saxon National Park. Another fun destination. This trip had approximately 4 miles of hiking. Our guide provided ice cleats and had walking sticks available, as well as hand warmers and wool caps. We were also given a bag of snacks. We were dropped off on time at our hotel. Overall a great time.
Was initially hesitant to go in January, but this trip has been one of our highlights. So glad we went to this winter wonderland. So beautiful. Tomas looked after us so well. Meal was delicious and with spikes provided for our shoes, walking was fun and stress free. Highly recommend this if you love the outdoors. Thanks for making our day so enjoyable Tomas.
The area was spectacular to see and our guide Thomas was amazing and friendly. The canyon was so pretty especially with the snow and then there was an incredible view at the second spot.
The trip was awesome! The tour guide was incredibly professional and knowledgeable, making the experience even better. I highly recommend this tour and this company to anyone.
The trip was very well though out and the guide, Tomas, was impeccable! The views were stunning and the snow made everything even more magical!
What a great day out! Our guide Tomas was fabulous, sharing pieces of information as we drove to the sites. Both locations were breathtaking and well worth the effort to see them. Lunch was incredible. The whole day is one we will remember for a long time.
Extremely fun and the host was very knowledgeable. Learned a lot, saw some cool sights and the food was excellent. 10/10 recommend!
Very relaxing tour. The views are stunning and we were fortunate enough to have clear weather. This was an excellent walking , well paced, interesting interaction with fellow travelers , informative interludes from our guide. Thank You.
The guide Michal was just so wonderful and really prepared for any case (he provided us with show spikes so we dont slip on the ice and others with gloves) Michal picked up everyone on time at 8am from their hotel and immediately gave each one a bag with water and snacks. We rode for over an hour and then hiked up a bit to view the rock formations and walked around them, amazing beautiful sight. Then we sat down for an included lunch and beer which was also very good in the local resturant. Next location we rode across the German border to the Saxon Switzerland national park and saw the bridge and amazing views. We were dropped off at around 16:30 which was even earlier than expected so we had plenty of time left to continue enjoying prague :) This is truly worth every penny!!!
We had a lovely day in the beautiful locations. The guide was excellent and it was a really fun trip.
What an amazing experience! Definitely a highlight of the trip to Prague. Our day trip to Bohemian Switzerland National Park included a hike where Narnia was filmed, and an enchanting sightseeing spot on the border of Germany. Going in off-season (November) was great because we were practically the only ones hiking. It was cold (dress for snow), but the colors were beautiful, and it started snowed just as we finished the hike. We got lucky with the weather, but it was truly magical. Lenka, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable and we felt really cared for. She brought car snacks, gave us hot tea and mulled wine on our hike, and took us to a charming restaurant for lunch. It was a great winter activity!
So having done the same sites tour the day before with another tour company that changed their itinerary for Pravcicka Gate to Tisa rocks hours before that tour started... I was not too thrilled with redoing this tour again with another company but I was already committed and paid. However, I mentioned to the guide what had happened with the other company with what they did. The female guide consoled me and said that she would do her best to make this one even better... which she did! We went to the Bastei bridge first where it was a bit foggy to start but them cleared up to a nice sunny morning. The Bastei bridge area has some spectacular drop-offs - very scenic and picture postcard worthy! Then off to Tisa Rocks from a different approach than the other tour i.e. not up from Refugio along-side a cemetery but from the side from Turistická chata Tisá restaurant in the same area. This tour guide was very patient knowing that some of us are older and take a little more time climbing - where other company tour guide was hurrying everyone. This was very foggy in the afternoon, so the day before arriving in the morning was better as it was clear. But not that much to see other than the drop-off. Anyway, this tour and guide were very nice and considerate.
The trip was amazing! Got an up close view and sandstone formation formed in times long ago. The hike was enjoyable with scenic vista's, educational talks about plant and animal life as well a the history and people of the area.
Cannot recommend this enough. Every detail has been well thought out, from comfortable transportation, an interesting itinerary, good communication prior to the tour, and a great lunch restaurant. Our guides, Pavla and Martin, were welcoming and informative. The hiking spots are beautiful and the pace was just right to enjoy the scenery without taking too long. It was great to step away from the bustle of Prague and enjoy these natural wonders without sweating the logistics myself. A well-deserved 5 stars for sure.
We had a great experience! Lenjka, our tour guide from Northern Hikes picked us up sharp on time at the hotel. We saw two locations, the Bastei and Tisa Rocks. Both are marvelous natural formations and beautiful. It was raining partly when we went. The hike at the Tisa rocks makes for a special mention. Lenjka herded us carefully through the snow. The scenery was breathtaking. Totally recommend this.
This was so amazing! Pavla was amazing and I had a nice relaxing day with some beautiful views. I came to Prague in a group of friends but I did this tour alone needing some time in nature. Definitely did the job!! The views are breathtaking and the walk was leisurely. Definitely chilly but nonetheless worth it (if you come prepared)… Would do again!
The tour guide was friendly and willing to help and answer all the questions. She is also knowledgeable about everything. She was willing to share and it was an enjoyable experience.
Beautiful trip! Must do! Great nature and beautiful views! Pavla was a really nice guide. She kwew a lot information about the locations and she took pictures from us. She is a really nice enthousiastic person. The food in the restaurant was the best food I had in Czech. Would highly recommend this trip!
An breathtaking day immersed in natural beauty. We visited the region around Tisa and also the Swiss Bohemian national park. Both places offered spectacular views and natural beauty. The food included was very good and a great example of Czech home cooking at its best. What made this tour extra special was our wonderful tour guide Pavla. She kept us energised, informed and safe and with a constant smile and infectious enthusiasm. If you ever visit Prague, add an extra day and do this tour. Its a real must do and unique experience. Thank you so much Pavla!
