Tour Itinerary
The macabre sight of Kutná Hora's bone chapel draws visitors from all over the world. Just one hour outside of Prague lies this gem of Bohemian history, home to much more than piles of skulls and bones. It was the economic power-house of the Kingdom of Bohemia and played a crucial role in the 15th century Hussite Wars.
Today Kutná Hora is one of the most popular destinations in the Czech republic because of its amazing collection of historic buildings, including the ghoulish Sedlec Ossuary, the Gothic masterpiece of St Barbara's Church and the splendour of the Italian Court. This rich heritage was born in the boom days when Kutná Hora competed with Prague economically and culturally, becoming the favourite residence of several Bohemian kings. How did it get so rich? They made money by making money… literally: they mined the silver that produced the 'Prague Groschen' - the hard currency of Central Europe at that time.
Ticket price includes all transport and entry into St Barbara's Church and the Sedlec Ossuary.
In order to keep this tour environmentally friendly and economical, we use public transport, which is the real Czech way to travel. Unfortunately this can occasionally mean delays. So please allow up to seven and a half hours for this six hour trip. The cost is included in the tour.

This was a great Tour. Try to get Filip as your Tour Guide. He was great and very informative. If you go to Praha and do not go to see Kutna Hora and the Bone Chapel, You are cheating yourself. Make sure to try the Wild Boar Goulash and Ginger Bread Dumplings at the restaurant that you have lunch at. This is a most see. Plenty of time to take pictures and shop. Just make sure that you're wearing comfy shoes if you're running late to the train.
