Frequently Asked Questions 1. Does the tour company have a website where we can get further information? No, this is a customized tour for Online Vacation Center VIP guests only. If you need further information, please contact your Personal Vacation Manager. 2. Lunch is included with each tour along with a drink. Does that include wine and/or beer? One glass of wine OR beer is included. 3. Are gratuities included? Gratuities for meals are included. Gratuities for the guide and driver are not. 4. How long is each tour? Most tours are 9am – 5pm. The Vienna city tour finishes a bit earlier since the concert is the same evening. 5. Are the Vienna city tour and concert on the same day? Yes. However, there will be time to go back to the hotel, freshen up and change clothes before departing again for dinner and the concert. 6. What is the dress code for the dinner and concert in Vienna? Dress code for the Vienna concert is “smart casual”. 7. Will we be staying at the same hotels at each destination? Everyone on the VIP, whether they sign up for the tours or not, will be staying at the same hotel. 8. When is payment due for this tour package? Tours will be charged at final payment along with the rest of the package. 9. What does “View of…” mean? The tour includes a stop at this location and you will have an opportunity to take pictures from the outside, however the tour does not include entrance to go inside. Some locations (i.e. bridges) do not have an inside, while others (i.e. castles and palaces) would simply take too much time to include entrance to all locations in a one-day tour. 10. I am unable to walk for long periods of time. Am I able to take this tour? The amount of walking varies in each city. Most cities have become strict about allowing coaches in the downtown areas, therefore much of our tours will be by foot. In Amsterdam there will be several times where we’ll slowly walk 15-20 minutes from one point to another, plus one stretch of 45 minutes (approximately 1.25 miles). Prague is the most strenuous, with 3 hours in the castle in the morning and then 3 hours walking in the afternoon (we will make stops to rest every so often). In Vienna we will tour the palace, then slowly walk approximately 1.25 miles in the city. In Budapest, there will be several times where we’ll slowly walk 15-20 minutes from one point to another. .

  • History Society Trip to Prague and Vienna, 2018
    History Society trip to Prague and Vienna, 2018 As one of the Trip Officers for the Edinburgh University History Society, Student Ambassador Carmen was responsible for organising a trip to Budapest and Vienna for 40 society members during Innovative Learning Week. While we were only away for 5 days, it felt like ages because we did so much in both cities! – Carmen Day 1: Monday, 19th of February Our flight to Budapest was extremely early – but this meant we got there really early too, giving us plenty of time to get our bearings! While the sky was blue, it was freezing cold as we walked around streets on the Pest side of the city, taking in the amazing views of Liberty Square & Parliament Square. After giving everyone a few hours to have dinner (and a nap after a long day of travelling!), we met up again to see the iconic Hungarian Parliament building light up at night. Here, we were able to get a big group photo, before running off to take some night shots of the stunning view over the River Danube! Day 2: Tuesday, 20th of February On our second day, we walked along the Széchenyi Chain Bridge (covered in snow!) to go across the Danube to Buda Castle. Using our trusty Budapest Cards, we were able to get a free Castle bus that took us outside the building – a lifesaver considering it was a very uphill walk! Some of our group were lucky enough to see the changing of the guard at the Sándor Palace, the residence of the Hungarian President.

  • To the Air Crew Exposure to Cosmic Radiation
    P-1a-44 To the Air Crew Exposure to Cosmic Radiation F. Spurny, I. Kovar, A. Malusek, K. Turek Department of Radiation Dosimetry, Nuclear Physics Insitute, Czech Academy of Sciences, Prague INTRODUCTION The cosmic radiation is one of the contributor to the natural radiation environment. The level of exposure to it increases with the altitude. At the sea level the annual exposure level is about 0.3 mSv, at the air transport altitudes it can reach 10 µSv per hour. In 1990, the International Commission on Radiological Protection recommended that the radiation exposure due to the cosmic rays at high altitudes be taken into account where appropriate as part of occupational exposure to radiation (1). Air crew members have become in such a way another group of workers for whom exposure to ionising radiation is one of occupational hazard (2- 6). Preliminary estimation shows that the level of this exposure is in average higher than for the most of other occupationally exposed groups of persons. It should be also mentioned that there are significant differences in exposure conditions of aircraft crew and occupational exposures generally (6): • the fraction of absorbed dose deposited at high LET is much greater for air crew, about 50 % as compared to few percents only for others; and, as was noted, there are no useful human data for high LET radiation effects; and • there is a little more than one half of females in air crew, while they represent only few percents for other occupationally exposed persons. Both these two factors increase the importance of correct estimation of air crew exposure.

  • The Czechs and the Lands of the Bohemian Crown
    6 Rebellion and Catastrophe The Thirty Years’ War was the last great religious war in Europe, and the first Europe-wide conflict of balance-of-power politics. Beginning with the Bohemian rebellion in 1618, the war grew into a confrontation between the German Protestant princes and the Holy Roman Emperor, and finally became a contest between France and the Habsburgs’ two dynastic monarchies, involving practically all other powers. The war may be divided into four phases: the Bohemian-Palatinate War (1618– 23), the Danish War (1625–29), the Swedish War (1630–35), and the Franco-Swedish War (1635–48). When the war finally ended with the Peace of Westphalia in 1648, the treaties set the groundwork for the system of international relations still in effect today. The outcome of the war integrated the Bohemian crownlands more fully with the other Habsburg possessions in a family empire that aspired to maintain its position as one of the powers in the international state system. This aspiration involved recurrent conflicts, on one side with the Turks, and on the other with Louis XIV’s France. .......................... 10888$ $CH6 08-05-04 15:18:33 PS PAGE 68 Rebellion and Catastrophe 69 VAE VICTIS!: THE BOHEMIAN CROWNLANDS IN THE THIRTY YEARS’ WAR After the Battle of the White Mountain and Frederick’s flight from Prague (his brief reign earned him the epithet ‘‘The Winter King’’), the last garrisons loyal to the Estates in southern and western Bohemia surrendered in May 1622.
