The 5-day plan, rearranged for 6 days: every place stays and a few more are added, and each day keeps to one part of town.
From average weather, 2021 to 2025: days that are warm but not hot, with few rainy days, score highest. Crowds and prices change through the year, so check them before you book.
Built from the plan’s must-sees, grouped so each day stays close together and ordered by time of day.
A modernist family house from 1930 by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Tickets sell out, so book well ahead, and check ahead for how the visits are run.
Go when Morning, at the time you booked.
Local tip Tickets sell out well ahead, so book as soon as your dates are set. The house is best seen slowly, room by room, with the garden to finish.
The long, open square at the heart of Brno, ringed by painted townhouses and a black, bullet-shaped clock of glass. A good place to get your bearings and see the city at its own pace.
Go when Morning, before the shops open and the square is quiet.
Local tip Look up at the facades rather than at the shop windows. The painted fronts and the carved doorways are the best part.
The Czech Sunday classic is beef in a creamy root vegetable sauce, with slices of bread dumpling, cranberries and a spoon of cream. A heavy, comforting lunch.
Local tip Order it for lunch and keep the afternoon walk slow.
An old market square, lined with stalls selling fruit, vegetables and flowers, with a baroque fountain at one end. Under it runs a network of old cellars, so check ahead if a visit is open.
Go when Morning, when the stalls are full.
Local tip Walk to the fountain at the top of the square and climb its steps for the view down over the stalls.
The oldest secular building in the city, with a crooked tower and a stone gateway. Walk through the passage and look up for the carved figure hanging from the ceiling, which locals love to talk about.
Go when Afternoon, between a cafe and the next stop.
Local tip Walk through the passage and look up for the carved figure. Locals will tell you its story if you ask.
Roast duck with red cabbage and bread or potato dumplings is the dish of the Moravian table, especially in autumn. Look for it on menus in the old center.
Local tip Duck is usually shared in large portions, so ask about a half portion for two.
Built from the plan’s must-sees, grouped so each day stays close together and ordered by time of day.
The two slim spires on the hill above the market are the symbol of the city. Step inside, and check ahead if the tower is open to climb. The noon bells are tied to a local story from an old siege, so ask a local to tell it.
Go when Late morning, so you hear the bells at noon.
Local tip The best view of the two spires is from the park on the hill beside the cathedral. Walk around it before you go in.
A crypt under the Capuchin monastery where the bodies of monks were naturally preserved. It holds human remains, so visit quietly and with respect. Check ahead for how and when you can go in.
Go when Midday, when the streets above are busy.
Local tip It is a quiet place and it holds human remains, so speak softly and take photographs only if they are allowed.
Smažený sýr is a thick slice of cheese coated in breadcrumbs and fried, served with tartar sauce and potatoes. A simple, filling pub lunch.
Local tip It is the dish most locals order when they want something quick, so look for a busy lunch table.
A fortress on a hill above the old town, once a royal castle and later a prison, now a museum. Walk up through the park for the view over the red roofs, and check ahead for which parts you can enter.
Go when Afternoon, when the light is soft over the city.
Local tip Walk up through the park rather than taking a car, and look back at the cathedral as the town opens below you.
Despite its name, Moravian sparrow is not a bird. It is slow-roasted pork, served with cabbage and dumplings, and a lasting dish of the region.
Local tip Ask the waiter which cabbage and which dumplings come with it.
Built from the plan’s must-sees, grouped so each day stays close together and ordered by time of day.
A neo-Gothic chateau of pale stone, once a summer home of a noble family, set in a large park. Walk the garden side first, then go in if you like, and check ahead for what is open.
Go when Morning, with the park to walk after.
Local tip Walk the garden side first and look back at the chateau across the lawn. The park is big, so choose one corner of it and leave the rest.
A UNESCO World Heritage site: a baroque palace and two great gardens, one formal with a long colonnade and one a landscape park. Walk the paths slowly.
Go when Morning, when the paths are calm.
Local tip Start in the formal garden near the palace, then walk out into the park. Check ahead for what is open and for tickets.
A slender Moorish-style tower standing in the park, built as a folly in the 19th century. A narrow stair climbs it for a view across the treetops, and check ahead before you plan the climb.
Go when Midday, between the chateau and lunch.
Local tip The stair is narrow and steep, so climb it only if you are comfortable with that. The tower looks good from the ground too.
A bowl of beef goulash with bread dumplings is a standard of the Czech table, and Frankovka is the local red, light and dark with a hint of pepper.
Local tip Ask for a half glass of the red if you still have the road back to drive.
Built from the plan’s must-sees, grouped so each day stays close together and ordered by time of day.
A pale castle on a rock above the town, with long views over vineyards and the low Palava hills. Walk up from the square, and check ahead for which rooms and cellars you can enter.
Go when Morning, before the heat and the day visitors.
Local tip Walk to the terrace for the view over the vineyards, then visit the castle rooms if there is time.
A large baroque chateau at the heart of the town, with a long courtyard. Its cellars hold a wine center where you can taste Czech wines, so check ahead and plan a driver, a tour or the bike back.
Go when Late afternoon, then a slow evening in town.
Local tip Walk the long courtyard, then ask at the chateau about a wine tasting in its cellars. Plan a driver, a tour or the bike for the way back.
Grüner Veltliner is one of the white wines of the region, dry and peppery. Pair a glass with a plate of bread, cheese and a salad at a table near the park.
Local tip Choose one glass if you are cycling or driving on.
A web of flat cycle paths runs through the park, past ponds, woods and small follies, to the town of Valtice. Hire a bike in either village, take it slowly, and let the day run to the weather.
Go when Afternoon, when the light is warm on the ponds.
Local tip The paths are flat, so any rider can enjoy them. Take water, ride slowly, and skip the tasting until the bike is parked.
Built from the plan’s must-sees, grouped so each day stays close together and ordered by time of day.
A walled town on a bluff above the river Dyje, with a wide main square, a tall town hall tower and old lanes. Walk without a plan, and look for the small wine shops that line the side streets.
Go when Morning, before the day visitors arrive.
Local tip Climb the town hall tower if it is open for the view over the roofs, then wander the side streets.
A long sloping square of painted houses leading up to the castle. Under many houses run old wine cellars, which is why the town is the capital of the Moravian wine trade.
Go when Midday, with a long lunch beside it.
Local tip Many of the old houses sit above deep cellars. If a cellar door is open, ask whether a tasting is possible, and book ahead for a group.
A plate of cured meats, a simple local dish and a glass of the local white at an outdoor table under the vines. Order slowly, and make it the long meal of the day.
Local tip Book ahead at a weekend, and plan a designated driver for the road back.
A small wooded hill beside the town with a chapel at the top and a path lined with the Stations of the Cross. Walk up slowly and look across the vineyards toward Austria.
Go when Late afternoon, around sunset (about 7:07 PM).
Local tip The path is a gentle climb, so wear sturdy shoes. At the top, look across the vineyards toward the border.
Built from the plan’s must-sees, grouped so each day stays close together and ordered by time of day.
A castle on the edge of the bluff with a round church from the Middle Ages beside it. The terrace has a view down into the river valley, a good place to sit before lunch.
Go when Midday, on the way to lunch.
Local tip Walk to the terrace at the edge for the view down into the river valley, and see the round church beside the castle.
A forested river canyon on the Austrian border, one of the smaller national parks in Czechia. Walk a short trail at its edge for the vineyards, the cliffs and the quiet. Check ahead for trail rules.
Go when Afternoon, after a long lunch, for an easy walk.
Local tip Keep to the marked trails, since the park protects its wild corners. Check ahead for the rules and for the trails that suit your pace.
One last table with a view of the old town: a plate of cured meats and a hearty local dish, and a glass of the local white or a coffee to finish. Let this be the slow meal of the trip.
Local tip Sit outside if it is warm, and book ahead if you are a group.
