Go Real Travel

✨ Adventure in Central Europe – September 2025 ✨ We had an incredible 15-day journey through Berlin, Prague, Vienna, Budapest, and Kraków – traveling in comfort with first-class rail tickets and staying in centrally located hotels. Every stop gave us a taste of the people, history, culture, and cuisine that make Europe so unforgettable. Our private guides selected by Go Real Travel for us were outstanding – knowledgeable, passionate, and proud to share their countries with us. Go Real understood that wanted one tour in each town to give us the feel of each . They also knew we preferred to have those tours at our speed, two of us plus guide. 🇩🇪 BERLIN • Saw the giant pandas (and 2019 panda cubs!) at the zoo • Took in sweeping city views from the Television Tower and Bundestag Dome • Visited Checkpoint Charlie, the Berlin Wall, Holocaust Memorial, Brandenburg Gate, and Reichstag • Strolled Potsdamer Platz and Berlin’s oldest church, St. Mary’s 🇨🇿 PRAGUE • Explored Prague Castle, St. Vitus Cathedral, and the Astronomical Clock • Wandered the vibrant Central Markets • Enjoyed an evening at Reduta Jazz Club – swing & jazz revival • Met our local director Tyler who made Prague extra special 🇦🇹 VIENNA • Culinary journey at Stefanie Restaurant: goulash, schnitzel, tafelspitz, and apple strudel • Guided walk through Vienna’s Inner City • Dinner at historic Café Central – where poets & philosophers once dined • Side trip to Klosterneuburg Monastery with wine tasting and the lively Naschmarkt 🇭🇺 BUDAPEST • Self-guided tour of St. Stephen’s Basilica, Parliament, and the Great Market Hall • Crossed the Chain Bridge connecting Buda & Pest • Visited the Dohány Street Synagogue – largest in Europe, second largest in the world • Coffee at historic Café Gerbeaud • Small-world moment: met a couple who once lived in Apex, NC! They arranged a driver to take us from Budapest to Krakow; there was not really a great option so we headed out and even stopped in Slovakia for lunch. Beautiful country. 🇵🇱 KRAKÓW • Walking tour of Kraków’s historic center, Wawel Castle, and Jewish Quarter • Powerful visits to Schindler’s Factory Museum and the Auschwitz concentration camp • Toured the former Jewish ghetto memorial with 1,000 empty chairs – each symbolizing a lost life 💫 It was the perfect mix of history, food, culture, and unforgettable moments. We are so grateful for the warm hospitality everywhere we went and the memories we’ll carry with us forever. A special shout-out to Go Real Travel for organizing everything so smoothly. Tyler was our go to person working with us throughout and especially to lay out the trip. Samia was always there to answer Operational questions. The app they provided worked seamlessly. We look forward to what the future holds and what trip we can do with their help!
