On today's Travel Talk we were joined by Katarina Hobbs, Director of Tourism for Czechia who brought us off to the heart of the Czech Republic or Czechia as it is also called these days — from the fairytale, cinematic streets of Prague to the buzzing festival scene in Brno. Katarina briefed us on the latest places to enjoy Michelin-starred dining, great value city breaks, effortless rail travel and why Czechia is fast becoming a must-visit for food and culture lovers.  And with Ireland heading there in March for a crucial World Cup play-off, there’s never been a better time to put this destination on your radar.
