Here we enjoy a fun-filled stay in the unique medieval resort, where we meet battling knights, tour the grounds and old brewery, have dinner with witches, and enjoy a raucous and highly entertaining medieval banquet. From Detenice, we make our way south to the UNESCO World Heritage town of Cesky Krumlov, where we discover the history of the town through tours of the castle, on a wooden raft along the Vltava River and in the gothic vaults of an old monastery where we will also learn traditional medieval writing skills.
