Best Time To Visit
Czechia is a year-round destination, each season offering its own unique charms.
Spring (April to June) is ideal for exploring blooming gardens and castles, with mild temperatures and fewer crowds. It’s a great time for peaceful walks through Prague’s historic streets or a getaway to the countryside.
Summer (July to August) brings lively festivals, long sunny days, and open-air concerts. It’s perfect for cultural events and exploring the outdoors, though popular tourist spots like Prague can get crowded.
Wine lovers appreciate fall (September to October) for its harvest festivals and colourful vineyard views. The crisp air and vibrant foliage also make it an ideal time for hiking and photography.
Winter (November to February) transforms towns into magical snow-dusted scenes, with festive Christmas markets, mulled wine, and glowing holiday lights. Whether you're wandering a medieval square or cozying up in a mountain resort, Czechia at this time of year is a picturesque winter wonderland.
Let us help you choose the perfect season for your Czechia adventure.
What do the experts say?
Prague and the surrounding Bohemian lands were significantly influenced by Austria’s Habsburg dynasty. There are several medieval gems in the country but Prague is the true pinnacle. It's an incredible city with so much culture and history
When visiting Prague, I would suggest the restaurant Pivovarsky Klub Benedict for traditional Czech food like pork knuckle and many other dishes
I love how well preserved the historical towns are. Many escaped the ravages of war and still have their original architecture, creating a dreamy, fairy-tale-like landscape of impressive castles and winding cobblestone streets
Spa culture in the Czech Republic dates back to the 14th century and many towns preserve their old-world architecture, giving you a serene and picturesque setting. My top picks include Karlovy Vary, Mariánské Lázně and Františkovy Lázně.
