About this activity

*NEW EXPERIENCE, RECENTLY ADDED*

Similar to our comprehensive route (also available on Viator) but taking a specific focus on the literary and artistic aspects of our experiences, we will journey back through time, from writers of the communist era (Hrabal & Kundera), to interwar avant-garde artists (an added bonus from our comprehensive tour), passing back through the decades of Kafka, to the Romantic undercurrents of the nineteenth century.
