Daytrip is a private car service platform that connects you with local drivers who will transport you door-to-door. We also give you the opportunity to explore sights/attractions along the way. We drive, you discover.
Daytrip offers private door-to-door transfers with optional sightseeing stops, hourly driver hire, and curated day trips — all with local English-speaking drivers and operating across 130+ countries.
For private trips, you can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before departure.
Yes! Book a private, door-to-door airport transfer with a local English-speaking driver. Enjoy fixed and transparent pricing, no hidden fees, and the option to pay in advance without the hassle of exchanging cash at a foreign airport.
You will receive the vehicle that best fits the number of travelers in your group, ranging from a sedan to a van for groups of up to 7. Depending where you travel, you can book anything from a sedan comparable to a Toyota Corolla to a Mercedes V-Class to a Classic Cuban Car. While the exact model may vary, we always ensure that the vehicle provided meets your needs in terms of safety, reliability, and comfort. You may be upgraded to a larger vehicle class free of charge depending on availability. Since our largest vehicle seats 7, for groups larger a combination of vehicles will be used. We will send you the exact vehicle details a few days before your trip.
Everywhere except the USA, drivers will supply appropriate child seats (just let us know during booking). In the USA, certain states require you to supply your own child seats.
Know more about traveling from Mcely
Yes. Daytrip drivers can wait at the destination for the duration of your visit and return you directly to your starting point — whether that is Prague, a hotel, or onward to another location. There are no public transport connections that make Mcely convenient to reach and leave independently, so having a driver on standby removes the single biggest logistical challenge of visiting this destination.
Renting a car and navigating rural Czech roads means dealing with unfamiliar routes, parking logistics at the estate, and the burden of driving both ways. With a Daytrip private transfer, a local driver handles all of that while you simply enjoy the ride. You also have the option to add sightseeing stops along the route — for instance, the historic town of Nymburk or the Elbe riverside — turning the journey itself into part of the experience.
The drive from Prague takes roughly 1 to 1.5 hours each way, leaving you a comfortable window to explore the chateau grounds, walk the forest paths, and enjoy the gardens. One day is enough to experience what Mcely offers — it rewards a slower pace rather than a packed itinerary, making it ideal for travelers who want to decompress without rushing between multiple sites.
Yes — and that is precisely the point. Mcely offers something Prague's famous landmarks cannot: genuine quietude. The chateau is not a museum packed with tour groups; it is a living estate where you can wander freely and experience Bohemian aristocratic heritage in an intimate, unhurried way. For travelers on a second visit to the Czech Republic, or anyone who wants depth over density, Mcely is a rewarding choice.
The chateau estate is the main draw. Visitors can walk the romantic English-style gardens, explore the surrounding forest, and admire the restored baroque architecture. The grounds have a distinctly fairy-tale quality, particularly in spring and autumn when the foliage transforms the setting. The area around Mcely is also part of the broader Polabi lowlands, known for gentle cycling and walking routes if you want to venture beyond the estate itself.
Mcely is a peaceful village in Central Bohemia, about 60 km (37 miles) east of Prague. Its centerpiece is Chateau Mcely, a beautifully restored baroque chateau set within a sprawling forested estate. Travelers come for the rare combination of historic architecture, manicured gardens, and woodland tranquility — a complete contrast to Prague's busy streets. It is one of those places that feels genuinely off the tourist trail while still being easy to reach.
So, so happy I stumbled upon this website to book two private transports while visiting Lima, Peru. They were both one-way trips approximately 3 hours in length. Great communication as soon as everything was booked via email and I then downloaded their app. I had a few issues with the app and the customer service was awesome trying to assist me in getting it corrected. Honestly impressive customer service which gave you a positive feeling that you made the right choice. Both drivers were right on time - No issues whatsoever! Can't say enough about the service and ease of everything when travelling so far away. Great job to the daytrip team! Would strongly recommend.
