I loved trying out the e-bike. It was like someone giving me a little push. Going uphill was a breeze. Even though there was a little rain at the start, the ride was wonderful. The walk up the hill to the castle was a little challenging. There was a small wax museum close to the castle that was fun to go through. Perfect day!
This tour is a great concept, but the execution was horrible. The castle is amazing, the bike ride is scenic, lunch was at a cute restaurant with great food, and the E-Bikes are great for the uphill portions of the tour. Our guide, however, had never led this tour before and got lost at least 10 times, with us having to backtrack constantly. To compound the problem, our guide did not speak Czech, so he could not ask anyone for directions. The tour stated that lunch was on your own, but did not state that the restaurant did not take credit cards. The tour also stated that the tour of the castle was on your own, but did not state that the castle also did not take credit cards. Also there were 8 people on our tour and the castle offered 3 different tours ranging in time from 40-100 minutes in length. This caused the group to have to negotiate with each other as to what to do. One couple didn't want to go on any tour due to how behind schedule we were due to getting lost. One couple wanted the 100 minute tour. We finally settled on the 55 minute tour, but there were hard feelings. To avoid this, a specific castle tour should be offered with the package. Also, more explanation on how to use the E-Bike is needed, as mine ran out of battery before arriving at the castle. We were supposed to be back at 5:00, but didn't get back until 7:30. If they could clean up these issues, this would be a great tour.
This was incredible! Even though it hailed and rain part of the time, we were in heaven. The e-bikes were easy and our guide was terrific! We could not have seen the countryside and had an awesome time without doing this. I could have ridden 100 miles on the e-bikes, they make it sooo easy!
Really a great trip. Recommend the e-bikes, which are so much fun. Francesco was a great guide, and we were greatful. We would have NEVER found Karlstejn on our own. A good value, and a fun day.
Fantastic day and probably the highlight of our trip for my family. The ebikes were a lot of fun. The countryside was beautiful. Even though we had some rain the guide kept up a good spirit and gave the trip a sense of adventure. All in all a good day out which I would highly recommend. I must add I am not sure I could have done this trip without the ebike as there is quite a bit uphill so unless you are really used to biking I would not do this trip on a regular bike. We returned to Prague at 6:30 pm.
