Get a bit dizzy on a rolling Traincation to Prague

Flying is so yesterday. If you want to avoid expensive taxis and getting perved on by the new airport security checks, then trains are the only way to get around. Whether you’re looking to large it in Latvia or get kinky in Helsinki, Traincation expert Hollie Wicks bring you the the weird and wonderful of European Traincations…

If you want to roll away in style from the January blues into the fun of February then listen up! This week we are talking about a zorbing Traincation to Prague…

What’s all the fuss?
We’ve shown you before why zorbing is both (Global) Cool and the hottest adrenaline filled fun ride around at the moment. The experience involves a freefall roll down the side of a hill whilst strapped into a giant inflatable hamster ball. The roll can reach up to 50km/h and is truly one of the easiest ways to get a rush with very little risk. Zorbing is becoming very popular and has taken over many countries, but today we have chosen Prague. Travel Out There runs a great zorbing experience in Prague for an extreme run with an English-speaking instructor. It’s easy to do and relatively cheap so what are you waiting for?

Getting there
The best route is to go via the Cologne-Prague City night line sleeper, as it is the most time-effective option. Firstly you travel from London to Brussels by the comfy Eurostar.  Then after arriving in Brussels you catch the ICE high-speed train to Cologne, spend some time there getting dinner. Before catching the City night line sleeper train, this is the modern Czech sleeping-car with comfy seats and couchettes. Make sure you open up the blinds in the morning for beautifully scenic River Elbe! Then before you know it, you’re in Prague ready for your zorbing trip! Visit Loco2 or RailEurope for tickets and help with booking

Here comes the science bit…
