Some of Our Favorite Travel Videos We Think Other Travelers Would Love

Our Travel Gear:
Microsoft Surface, Travel Laptop: We travel with a Microsoft Surface everywhere we go. I edit my videos on it & use it to backup my pictures and vides while we travel. It’s light and the best travel laptop on the market in my opinion.

Camera Sony Alpha Series: We use Sony Alpha series cameras to film our videos. They are compact so you don’t look like a super tourist when you take great pictures and videos while you travel.

Western Dynamics 4 TB external hard drive. This let's you save your pictures and videos from your SD cards while you travel without having to use a computer.

Manfrotto Tripods: We use Manfrotto Tripods. They are compact, travel well, and honestly I would not use another tripod for my nice cameras.

Travel Plug that works in pretty much any country & has four USB ports. A must for any traveler.

Our Packs/Luggage: Want to grab some great gear? We have used Osprey Packs for years & swear by them. Check them out here

I visited Prague back in 2003 for the first time and I instantly fell in love with the city. I've been back there 11 times since. Have also visited many other parts of CZ as well. Wonderful country.

I was lucky enough to have a local friend who let me stay with her for free. This place is quite literally my favorite city I’ve ever visited. Need to go back when I can ☺️

Went to study abroad in Prague 3 years ago today and haven't stopped thinking about it since

[katiejenkins]

Going to the big tourist sites at dawn is a MUST even in the so-called off season. I found that out in Venice when I got someone else's wakeup call around 5 a.m., and the Grand Canal was glorious and deserted. On my upcoming trip to Prague I plan to see go to the Charles bridge at dawn.

Just got back from vacation from prague yesterday. Oneczech dish i really recommend is a slow cooked knee with horseradish. This is huge dish, the meet cooked so much it is almost a jello and it us really tasty!
One exchange i recommend is just before the crosswalk from the old city to the national museum, there is exchange, yes with 0% commission but with excellent rates of 1eur=24.20 czk, and near it there is excellent deli for cheeses, by products and a lot of good pastrami and other good meats in good prices

I got a kick out of that statue at 1:48. Prague looks so gorgeous, hope to visit there one day myself. Great tips as always Mark.

Put your hands up for Praha, the lovely city!

Prague was a favorite. My donts. Don't skip the beer, pork knee, opera house, cathedral, just walking around, and sitting on the hill of the Apple orchard looking down on the city. (Apples were a little sour but good)

Thanks for this video. My misses is off to Prague in Oct (fingers crossed) so now you have a new fan!

I would have fallen for the conversion trick. Thanks for the heads up.

Especially in big tourist cities, waking up early is the best thing you can do, when I went to Rome a few years ago, we got up and out by 6 in the morning and the city was empty and it was 100x better, the trevi fountain had about 10 people around it as opposed to the hundreds that gather later on, would definitely recommend

[pablofedericofidelamendola]

Awesome work!!. I'm a huge fan of Prague. By the way, I'm from Buenos Aires and I loved your videos about my city, the argentinian food and all that stuff. Great job!!.

Concerning buying Czech crowns, get them from an ATM (a reliable one such as at the airport) rather than at a bureau de change.

Another sight that is well worth visiting is Vyšehrad, Prague's other castle, which in my experience is a lovely place of tranquility.

[isamaaltaein]

Thank you for shearing good tips. I very interesting to visit this city. Chaos

[VampiraVonGhoulscout]

If you are a vegetarian like myself, I would recommend smaženy syr. It's deep fried cheese and potatoes.

One of the most beautiful cities in the world . One I had the good fortune to visit twice . Love Prague & Chekkie People . Another good attraction is the replica of the Eiffel Tower in Prague . With stunning views over Bohemia . Well worth a visit . Just Simply Krasna .

When I was a music teacher I used to show the movie “Beethoven Lives Upstairs”, which was filmed in Prague. Ever since then I’ve wanted to visit.
