Prague

Whether your idea of a holiday is to soak up sun, engage with history or embrace the festival atmosphere, Prague is a veritable city for all seasons. One of the few European cities that is as appealing in winter as it is in the summer, Prague – with its UNESCO World Heritage status – is blessed with stunning architectural grandeur, from its neoclassical buildings and bridges to its splendid Art Nouveau flourishes.

Better still, Prague is the ideal to simply discover at your own pace. Bustling cafes, thumping nightclubs and cultural delights hide around the corner, with the districts of Mala Strana and Nove Mesto a particular delight, yet Prague is a city that is perfect to explore by foot.
