The former kingdoms of Bohemia and Saxony are rich in scenic beauty, history and culture. Isolated for years behind the Iron Curtain, Bohemia is today part of the Czech Republic, and Saxony, once within communist East Germany, has again become a German state. The route along the Vltava and Elba Rivers takes you through gorges lined with grand castles, tranquil towns and baroque cities that contain some of Europe’s most dazzling architecture. View masterpieces of famous art collections and the jewels of the storied Green Vault in Dresden. Follow in the footsteps of Martin Luther in Wittenberg, and explore the bridges, squares and churches of one of Europe’s finest cities: Prague.
