This was a fun trip! Ondra was our guide and was very helpful. Wear good hiking shoes and be prepared to get a good workout at the Bohemian Switzerland park. Great views, though. Lunch was pretty good too. And there was plenty of water in the van to rehydrate.

The countryside was beautiful from start to finish. The rock formations are incredible and the National Park is so well designed that you have fabulous views from many locations. The van was comfortable with 8 passengers and our belongings. The meal that was provided was well prepared and adequate for the appetites everyone had worked up. The best part was our driver and guide, Ondra. He was knowledgeable entertaining, and caring. He made sure that he gave each of us individual attention.
