Boats on the Vltava and the Malše: the Hluboká – Purkarec line, commentated trips through the centre of České Budějovice and hire of pedal boats, rowing boats and paddle boards.

## Who they are

Plavby Hluboká, with its sister company Plavby Budějovice, is the boat company of the Vltava and the Malše between České Budějovice and Hluboká nad Vltavou. It is part of Koncept Lanna, a local group that also runs the Kavárna Lanna and the Kavárna Vlnna, an apartment, a children's playground, a sports equipment hire and a shop, all on the riverbank. The project is co-funded by České Budějovice City Council. Its idea, they say, is for the river to be a place to rest and discover again, not just something you cross by a bridge.

## The boats

The Vojtěch Lanna Junior sails from June to September, every day, from the Hluboká harbour at 9:00 and 13:00, downriver between rock gorges and forests towards Karlův Hrádek and Purkarec, with a view of Hluboká castle from the water. If there is interest, it runs extra departures from four people; it is best to call +420 778 719 531 to confirm the day. Tickets are bought at the harbour itself.

In České Budějovice, the Sv. Rozálie sails along the Malše and the Vltava right in the centre. In season it runs a regular line between Sokolský ostrov island and Malý jez, commentated historical trips over the town and themed departures, including one that ends with a visit to the Samson brewery. The company also runs a crossing boat at České Vrbné, north of the town.

## Hire and other services

On the bank they hire pedal boats, rowing boats, paddle boards and motorboats. Both boats can be hired for birthdays, companies and weddings; private cruises are requested on +420 607 030 510. Next to the Hluboká harbour, the company also advertises the Hluboká via ferrata.

## Where to buy tickets

There are two points of sale: the Kavárna Lanna, at Jiráskovo nábřeží 45e in Budějovice, and the Podskalí marina, in Hluboká, open from May to October. The website, in Czech, does not publish ticket or hire prices, nor conditions for children, bicycles or dogs; it is best to ask at the harbour or by phone. The contact email is info@infopointvltava.cz.
