Come and enjoy the route of two rivers. The tour offers two options – all way biking combining mostly flat landscape along the Elbe and Morava rivers with some little more demanding bits in between. The second option skips some parts by train so it is shorter as well, should time be your trouble. We start in Prague and head east to reach the Elbe river the same day and continue along it for next two days. En route we meet the fascinating silver mining town Kutná Hora or ancient stud farm in Kladruby. Next we leave the river to spent 3 days in rather hillier area on border between Bohemia and Moravia. Here we admire the renesaince towns Litomyšl or Moravská Třebová. In the end we get to the old Moravian capital – the university town Olomouc, sometimes called little Prague. From Olomouc we head south along the Morava river. On this part of the journey we bike through the archbishops seat in Kroměříž and further south we shortly visit Slovakia. Slowwly getting to the wine making country we say good bye to Czech Republic in the lovely ex-Lichtenstein premises of Lednice and Valtice. Last two days we bike through Austria again with wine and some nice hidden villages. Finally we enter the imperial metropolis of Vienna with its boulevards and palaces.
