Walk through Karlovy Vary at your own pace with a self-guided tour that runs entirely on your phone. No app to download and no guide to keep up with: open your Ciceru experience, follow the map and stroll between eight stops along the town's UNESCO-listed spa architecture, from Grandhotel Pupp and the Imperial Spa to the Hot Spring Colonnade, where the Vřídlo geyser rises, and the Mill Colonnade.
At every stop you get an audio story about the place, then a short quiz or riddle to test what you have just heard, so it feels more like a game than a lecture. The route is about 2 km and takes around 1.5 hours, but you can pause for a coffee or a sip from the springs whenever you like. The tour is available in seven languages, and a free eSIM is included so you can stay online while you walk.
What's Included
