Another small(ish) town suggestion is Kolin, also only an hour away by train. It has much that Prague has, only smaller: a cathedral, city square, historical museum, river with bridge (Labe River, also known as the Elbe), archelogy museum, Jewish cemetery and synagogue, partial city wall, thrift shop, jewelry store whose location and ownership dates back to the 1500;s when they had guilds, wonderful restaurant on the square, ''Monet,'' super thrift shop. Get off at the first stop, rather than main station and walk up the hill to the square. Lots to see.
Great video 🎉have been to Kutna Hora previously and we are coming back in April 25. Will definitely be a day trip on the agenda. Thank you for sharing x
:) heads-up about a very common misconception at 2:30 - the rivers in the background are not the confluence of the Vltava and Labe, but actually the confluence of the Labe and Vltava's artificial channel for boats, as the final part of the Vltava river a is essentially unnavigable. The actual confluence of the two rivers is a little further away - it's visible to the left at 2:32.
Hi Valery, Another great one, you are so funny, you make me smile every time. That hamburger looked amazing!!! Your husband is a lucky man, and we are lucky to have this channel. Have a fantastic tomorrow and see ya next time.
Fully agree - Mělník is a great _day out of Prague_. I wanted to see where the Vltava and Elbe rivers joined, and just below Mělník is the spot. By pure luck, a wine festival was happening and that was tasty and fun too.
REAL PRAGUE GUIDES, you are masters at your craft!!! CHAPEL OF BONES? Oh hell no. I got sick just walking into the Catacombs of Rome. I can't explain it other than an over whelmingness even though it does fascinate me.🙏🌹👌
I plan an extended stay in Kutna Hora, but will pass on the bone chapel. I mean, did all those people consent to having their remains used in this manner? Seems massively disrespectful to me.
We drove through yesterday as we often do. Every time we say ‘we must go in one day and take a proper look around’. So now you have inspired us to do just that very soon. Thanks.
Love your videos. Nice to see a CZK city that has avoided the ravages of graffiti. I might go for a small trip there from Horovice. Keep them coming. 👍
God, Valery has such rizz. She’s just so smart and funny and cute. What a lovely human. ❤ Sort of an abrupt ending tho. Where is the signature “buyyyyyeee!”?
We visited Melnik a few years ago, and very much enjoyed it. The view of the rivers is lovely! BUT I disagree about the "bone church." The one in Kutna Hora is a work of art, that treats the dead with great respect. Well worth the money. The one in Melnik is a creepy basement, with the bones just piled up in stacks. With the music, it is clearly intended to appeal to people looking for something creepy. Very touristy. Interestingly, when we visited, the woman selling tickets assumed we were German, which probably says something about the majority of their visitors.
Valery, I will help you out as I am sitting here with Google in my lap. The Elbe originates in northeast CZ in Krkonošsky národni park. Vltava's head waters are from a spring in the mountains down past Cesky Krumlov.
RPG's!!! Melnik is beautiful. Melnik is also a last name here in Texas. I wonder if there ancestors migrated from Melnik CZ. I loved this video, I think if I make it back to CZ, I will have to go there. Keep up the great work.
@@RealPragueGuides Yes, starting on the coast where I am in Lake Jackson and moving North West toward Austin, this area was settled by Bohemians. A lot of the names have been shortened or altered but some have not. My guess is that they were Catholic Bohemians who migrated because of Protestant pressure. I don't know this, but the Bohemians here are all Catholic. They have been here since the 1840's
There is also a possibility that their surname is of Ukrainian rather than Czech ancestry. Melnik is quite common family name in western Ukraine. Mělník (the Czech town) is spelled differently, however, that misspelling could have occured due to transcription from Czech to English.
I'm an American and I've been watching your videos. Good job! Actually, I see you guys as in your 20s, young, thin, and it might not occur to you that as we age, our legs get weaker and we sometimes gain weight. So, a museum that takes 6 hours can kill our legs for not only that day, but 5 more days. Do you have any interest in creating a leg saving Prague itinerary? Instead of big museums or a museum card, how about a small museum, that can be seen in an hour? Instead of a walking tour, how about using a tram and getting on it and off it at different points? Or using parks not to run around in, but to find benches and rest? I'm an American and we actually have a higher obesity rate than the Czech Republic. Are there any elevation changes to avoid, like stairs on certain streets?
❤ love your smile I love your demeanor you one classes lady if you're husband needs to take a day off I will be your cameramen I will do it for freexoxo
Those are not Labe and Vltava. Those are Labe and Hořín cannal, Labe and Vltava confluence is litle bit more east. Ouu and if you touch statue of St. Vaclav your men parts will fall off :-) (no idea what hapends to women parts)
Amazing! Thanks for the comment! As you can see we suck at geography :D. So it’s a channel that links to Vltava, but it’s not Vltava? We have no clue about these technicalities 😅. Like for example in Prague I would call Čertovka channel still part of Vltava river. Is that wrong? (This is camera guy writing)
The RPG's can probably give you a better answer, but I was there 12 years ago and have no problems what so ever. I found the Czechs friendly and helpful. All the ones I ran into spoke English, but I would bet that if you ran into one that didn't they would still try to help you.
You will have absolutely no problem, everyone catering to tourists will speak English enough for you to get by. That said, when traveling anywhere it can helpful (and a nice gesture) to learn a few words. In my experience the most helpful are hello, please, thank you, sorry, excuse me, yes, no, entrance, exit, bathroom.

And we did and it was excellent. Folded the map in half, put our hard hats on, visited the old bones and had a great time. Thank you
Valery best guide! CR & Prague sweetest places to see! ❤
And we are going today 😀
Hůůůráááá! Mělník! You didn't point out Hora Říp.
What a beautiful little town I love it 🥰

I did not expect to come across the cutest sneeze I have ever heard whilst watching this
love your sense of humor! Love the Czech "Stonehenge" :)

@@jamespppyacek342 Agreed. I have to research how so many bodies were gathered and desicrated.🤔😥

Great video!, thank you very much!!, best regards from Chile. Muchas gracias!, saludos desde Chile.

Nice job 🙂
That was a lot of skulls, but thank you for the excellent video!!!!
1:18 ❤ Bless you !
Short, but very informative.....thank you. ..........next time more coffee :-)
Great video guys 😂
Another day trips you could try (If you have not already done so) are Kutná Hora, Litoměřice and Pardubice.
A city with a room of bones that is less expensive than its competing room of bones in another city--wow!
God, Valery has such rizz. She’s just so smart and funny and cute. What a lovely human. ❤

I am planning to visit in early October. Is it worth staying a night in Melnik?
It’s not necessary. It’s super close to Prague. You can just take a train there and back.
5:05 a jab at Prague Honest Guide? 😊
3:35 actually it's the opposite 😂 but it's ok, we'll all die.
You ever go into Slovakia?
Do you have beef with Honest Guide?😂
❤ love your smile I love your demeanor you one classes lady if you're husband needs to take a day off I will be your cameramen I will do it for freexoxo
Ignore this comment as this is a personal msg for someone
For Mel
Good morning, babe 🌄🩷
Hugs and kisses 💋💋💋
I love you so much and endlessly ♥️♥️♥️

Hi mam,
How challenging will it be for an english speaking person in prague ?
Just went a few months ago...no problem at all ...friendly, great place. Have fun!
