Guided Canoe Tours
Just forget about ordinary everyday life and get lost in your dream...
Here we go again – a peaceful weekend with a few days or an entire week ahead of us. With the sun shining on your shoulders, you can be sitting in a swaying canoe that carries you to faraway unexplored regions that promises you adventure. You will also feel adrenaline as you punch through rapids and waves and calm as you visually soak up cozy watermen pubs, magnifi cent castles, and look at the sparkling water.
Off the river your tranquillity will continue as we sit around the campfi re listing to melodic guitar tunes. Just forget about ordinary everyday life and get lost in your dream. Simply enjoy your time on the river with a group of good friends. You simply must be tempted! You can experience so much while canoeing on well-known rivers! Get acquainted with the Czech phenomenon, when thousands of Czech people desert their offi ces, stores, machines and schools every summer in order to indulge themselves in the lovely countryside.
