Our walking tour starts along the Teplá River, where you will hear the story of Karlovy Vary’s famous mineral springs, said to have been discovered by Emperor Charles IV himself. Here, thermal waters rise from the depths of the earth, reaching temperatures of up to 72°C, with gentle steam carrying their healing properties through the air.

Its recipe is a closely guarded secret, known only to a select few, but it is said to contain over 30 herbs and fruits, creating a unique and unforgettable taste.

After lunch, you will have free time to explore at your own pace. Stroll across elegant bridges, wander through boutiques showcasing the world-famous Moser crystal, taste freshly baked Karlovy Vary wafers, or simply relax in a quiet park, breathing in the refreshing mineral-rich air.
