The stops
1. Prague· 1 night
Cross Charles Bridge before breakfast, then head south along the Vltava.
2. Český Krumlov· 1 night
A UNESCO town coiled inside a river meander, all painted towers and riverside taverns — best after dark.
3. Telč· en route
Stop two hours for the arcaded Renaissance square, pastel gables mirrored in the fish ponds.
4. Vienna· 2 nights
Schönbrunn, Sachertorte, and a heuriger wine tavern in the hills to toast the finish.
Good to know
Czech and Austrian motorways both require vignettes (digital, buy online). Český Krumlov is mobbed by day-trip buses 10–5; staying the night transforms it. Telč adds under an hour to the direct route and is worth double that.
