About this Tour
According to legend, the world-famous spa town of Karlovy Vary was discovered in the 14th century by the Czech King and Holy Roman Emperor Charles IV while hunting in the surrounding forests. Over the centuries, the healing mineral springs gave rise to one of Europe’s most prestigious spa destinations, whose reputation soon spread far beyond the borders of Bohemia. Karlovy Vary became synonymous with elegance, relaxation, and high society.
Throughout its history, the town has welcomed countless distinguished visitors, including Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Ludwig van Beethoven, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Giacomo Casanova, and numerous European monarchs, artists, and statesmen. More recently, Karlovy Vary has gained worldwide recognition as the host of the prestigious Karlovy Vary International Film Festival, attracting celebrated filmmakers and movie stars from around the globe every summer.
The true charm of Karlovy Vary lies in slowing down, relaxing, and embracing its unique atmosphere. As we stroll beneath its elegant colonnades and along the picturesque Tepla River, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to sample several of the town’s famous thermal mineral springs, renowned for their beneficial effects on digestion and overall well-being.
No visit would be complete without tasting the traditional spa wafers, a favourite local delicacy, or discovering the story behind Becherovka, the town’s famous herbal liqueur that has been produced here for more than two centuries.
Before exploring the elegant streets of Karlovy Vary, we’ll make our first stop at the world-famous Moser Glassworks, one of the Czech Republic’s most prestigious producers of luxury crystal.
Here, you’ll have the opportunity to browse an exquisite collection of handcrafted crystal pieces and, if you wish, join a fascinating guided factory tour to watch skilled master glassmakers transform molten glass into beautiful works of art using traditional techniques that have been perfected over generations.
