Expand All

Day 1

Local departure by coach or Door-to-Door service, then to Belgium for an overnight stay.

Day 2

Continue through Germany to your hotel in Mariánské Lázně for a two-night stay.

Day 3 Mariánské Lázně & Karlovy Vary

Location: Mariánské Lázně & Karlovy Vary


Today’s included excursion first travels into the centre of Mariánské Lázně, where you'll have free time to explore. Also known as Marienbad, the town is considered a pearl of western Bohemia.


Surrounded by green forests and boasting around forty natural springs, it has become the second largest town in the Czech Republic. Enjoy a stroll around the charming streets, soaking up the wealth of architectural treasures and immaculate gardens on offer.


This afternoon, why join our optional tour to the popular resort of Karlovy Vary, also known as Carlsbad, for a guided sightseeing tour? The town has twelve main hot thermal springs which are still in use, and you can smell the water as you walk alongside the colonnades.

Day 4 České Budějovice

Location: České Budějovice


This morning, we head southwards to České Budějovice, better known as Budweis – the city of beer. The tradition of brewing beer stretches back into the distant past when the Celts inhabited Central Europe, and the brewing of beer in České Budějovice dates back to 1265. The original version of the beer 'Budweiser' comes from the town.


Enjoy some free time exploring this afternoon, and take in the pastel-coloured buildings and Main Square.

Day 5 Český Krumlov

Location: Český Krumlov


Today we include a visit to Český Krumlov, a UNESCO World Heritage Site which lies nestled on the banks of the Vltava River. The historical, medieval centre and many of the Baroque buildings remain very well-preserved.


Why not join our optional guided walking tour? The guide will introduce you to sights such as the Old Town and Concord Square.


The remainder of the day is at leisure for you to explore at your own pace.

Day 6 Prague

Location: Prague


Today, we travel to our hotel in Prague. After settling in, we travel into the centre of Prague, where you have the chance to take in a different view of this incredible city by enjoying an optional cruise on the Vltava River. Lasting for approximately two hours, the cruise will take you along this majestic waterway, past spectacular views of the famous landmarks of the capital. Lunch will be served on board with a selection of warm and cold Czech specialities, so sit back on the sundeck and admire the outstanding sights of the 'City of a Hundred Spires'.


The remainder of the afternoon is at leisure for you to explore on your own.

Day 7 Prague

Location: Prague


Enjoy an included guided walking tour of the main sights of this historic city, the Czech Republic's beautiful capital, known as the 'City of a Hundred Spires'. Take in the splendid views across the Vltava River, see the Castle District and the famous Charles Bridge, and stroll through the colourful Old Town Square. Be sure to see the Astronomical Clock, on the Old Town Hall Tower, which strikes the hour at 9, 10 and 11am, and sets in motion the procession of the Twelve Apostle figures.


There are so many interesting buildings to admire, making this a wonderful city to wander through at leisure.

Day 8

To Belgium for an overnight stay.

Day 9

Return home.

Just got back from a holiday with leger holidays to callea spain which my wife done as a surprise for my 60th and wedding anniversary together my wife and i had a great time the coach journey there was excellent regular stops for toilet breaks and a stretch. Our two drivers Geoff and katrina were brilliant serving regular drinks and making the trip pleasant all the people on the coach were pleasant the hotel in spain was so nice the best we've stayed in lovely staff lovely bar the guy at the bar was great really friendly nice room. Overall our journey there and our return journey was brill the only thing that was not good at all was the ibis hotel on the return journey the room was horrible not a nice breakfast not polite French staff. Not really interested in trying to speak some english if i was leger should try and use a different hotel. Once again a big thank you to Geoff and katrina well done guys for making our holiday lovely. Hope to see you on another holiday soon

I went on the 4 countries trip and swiss glacier express and overall it was a great trip. The coach I was on was silver service, it was tidy had nice seats and other accessories such as charging points and headsets which was very handy. The drivers Alex and Dave were fantastic, very kind, funny and respectful throughout the whole trip and a pleasure to talk to. The excursions were very pleasant and all ran very smoothly. The hotels were decent and offered a good service. I overall very much recommend leger holidays.

Excellent customer service

10-Jan-2023

Booked our ‘Christmas in Austria & Scenic Trains of the Tyrol’ through George on the customer Helpline. Nothing was too much trouble, everything clearly & patiently explained. He even had permission to log in on his day off to finalise the sale! A charming and helpful young person and a credit to the company.

10-Oct-2023

Been on two tours now the “D Day beaches” and “ All Quiet on the Western Front” tour of the Somme and Ypres. Both four days in total, two travelling and two on the site of the various battles. This is outstanding value for money, picked up from Carlisle , Cumbria and literally looked after all the way through the tours. The coaches are great and the accommodation spot on . The guides are very knowledgeable ( Mark Hope brilliant guy)and the bus drivers professional . Absolutely fantastic .

21-Jul-2022

Due to covid it was 3rd time lucky for us to visit lake Garda, what a treat. One or two hiccups but no fault of Legers at all. Praise to Graham and Chris for their excellent driving and coffee service. Our visit to Verona, our guide was very informative but did walk at a pace sometimes had to hurry to keep up. A lovely holiday

Four Countries New Year & the Swiss Glacier Express

07-Jan-2024

Firstly we must thank Alex and Dave our tour guide / drivers who entertained us through out . The tour was fantastic so was the hotel’s food and entertainment. The tour was through the new year holidays as expected lots of shops closed and hotels were understaffed which was lost on some travelers. We travelled back from stop 24 on a luxuria coach I would recommend paying the extra for the comfort alone

12-Jun-2024

I recently went on a 4 night tour to Scarborough. Driver was great hotel superb. My criticism is too many destinations crammed into day excursion. Example visit to Flamborough head stop for 1 hour it was teeming nobody got off coach but even if fine pointless. Then on to Bridlington coach Park 1.5 ml from centre. Most people are hard pressed to get to center & back in 1.5 hours pointless. Incidentally if Leger paid a permit they could alight us in the resort. Very bad logistics. On to Whitby with a decent stop should have taken us there & bypassed the other stops. I will not go with them again. I will source a better holiday with excursions to one place only.

25-Mar-2024

just returned from a solos break to valkenburg and rhine valley i enjoyed the break overall although both journeys were considerably longer than expected due to several picks ups. I could have done without the 3 countries meeting point excursion to be honest and the lunch on rhine cruise was very basic. The drivers/couriers were efficient and good humoured and provided free lunch vouchers on the ferry which were much appreciated. I probably would book another break with leger but to somewhere a lot closer to home.

19-May-2024

I was told by a customer service advisor (Michael) , our hotel overlooked the River Seine, which was totally untrue. It was nowhere in sight and a good walk to get to it. My view from the hotel room was a wall and a window, There was no porterage available and although our drivers offered, after a 15 hour journey to France, we all opted to take our own luggage. To get into the shower there was a step to it and the floor of the shower was like an ice rink when wet, with nothing to hold onto. ( I showered wearing my slippers to avoid slipping). The plunger to the sink was unusable; (the lever to retrieve it was broken). The staff were pleasant and helpful, the bed was comfortable and clean abd the breakfast was worthy of the 3 stars given. Otherwise, I have stayed in a better 2* hotel in France. The driver and travel rep, Paul were both very friendly and pleasant but it was the first time Paul had been on this trip and therefore had little knowledge of the places we visited! There was no commentary and the history of Monet and Versailles was read out from a book! All in all, nothing would persuade me to take part in another Leger tour.

Many thanks to Molly.

03-Jan-2023

I have recently booked a trip to Le Mans and had the good fortune to speak to Molly. She was very helpful and a pleasure to talk to. She was able to answer all but one of my queries with clarity and promised to ring me with the answer to the un-answered question as it required further investigation. This she duly did. An unusually pleasant experience when making a booking over the phone, if only it could be this easy every the time.
