Explore Beyond Prague

Experience the Culture and History of Central Europe

The best way to understand Central Europe is to experience it firsthand. Each semester, AEP organizes four trips across the Czech Republic and its neighboring countries. These excursions are designed to immerse students in the region’s cultural, historical, and political diversity. Every trip includes transportation, guided tours, entrance fees, accommodation, cultural activities, and plenty of free time to explore on your own.
AEP Activities

Shared Moments, Lasting Memories

AEP activities are designed to build community and help you feel at home in Prague. Whether it’s a relaxed evening with fellow students or a cultural outing in the city, these events offer a chance to connect with others, share experiences, and enjoy life beyond the classroom.

AEP provides trips all over the Czech Republic and beyond and each one seems better than the last. They are all full of history, beauty, and, if you're lucky, Pilsner. AEP also gives you the flexibility to explore Prague and the Czech Republic on your own.

The trips and activities completely made the semester. A day trip to Český Krumlov gave me a glimpse of Czech life outside Prague, while the Krakow trip was completely unforgettable -- from exploring the city to visiting Auschwitz to bonding with fellow AEP students.

AEP trips really helped the transition because fundamentally, these trips help everyone get to know each other and make friends during a stressful time.

I made a great bond with other classmates. The program excursions took me to places I likely would not have traveled otherwise.
