We’ve already discovered its benefits in the last article. Now let’s look at practical tips and interesting places.
Have you thought about Brno?

Once you land, the Czech Republic’s excellent train and bus network makes it easy to reach towns like Brno, Olomouc, Plzeň, and others – fast, comfortably, and affordably. Private train companies like RegioJet or Leo Express even offer Wi-Fi, meals, and first-class seating
