Central Europe lies in the geografical heart of the Continent but stretches largely behind the former Iron curtain. After the fresh wind in late eighties wiped out the comunism from the map of Europe, rapid changes begun. It took ten years to build what is believed to be small, stable and independent country - the Czech Republic. We tried to bring the best blend of what you can see here and included also lake Neusiedl that naturally belongs to the region. Variety of habitats ensures we will be delighted by sights of the representative choice of European birds during the trip. And among them we will certainly find White-tailed and Imperial Eagle, Great Bustard, Tengmalm's, Eagle and Pygmy Owl, Hazel Grouse, Bluethroat or Common Rosefinch. All Europe's woodpeckers can be seen during the trip! Cultural heritage is no less worth mentioning and small towns along the southern border of the Czech Republic hide beautiful pictoresque town centers and cobbled lanes. Where else can we relax after our walks? In an old wine cellar with folklore music, in the alehouse next to the Budweiser brewery or listening to the classical music in a small concert hall.
