What does a bus tour day from Prague to Kutna Hora look like?
You ride about an hour out of Prague, take a guided visit of the Sedlec Ossuary and St Barbara's, walk the old town, get some free time and ride back.

Food on the Day
None of the tours here includes lunch. On the $65 tours reviewers say there is little or no time to buy food, so bring a snack and coins for paid toilets. The $86 tour leaves time for a meal in town at your own cost.

Is a bus tour better than going on your own?
A bus tour is better if you want the ossuary slot, tickets and transport handled in one booking, while going alone by train is cheaper but needs planning.
Both work. The difference is the planning.
What Going Alone Involves
Independent visitors take the train to Kutna Hora hl.n. The station has a municipal bus stop nearby, a taxi stand, left luggage and bike storage. The station building is barrier-free but no platform is. You then book the ossuary's timed slot online, since entry without a reservation is not guaranteed, and buy the St Barbara's ticket at the church.
For trains, fares and stations, read Prague to Kutna Hora.

One Day or More
One day is enough for the Bone Church, the Sedlec cathedral, St Barbara's and a walk through the centre, though it is a full day. Museums and the countryside around the town need longer. The infocentre at St Barbara's, Barborska 685, keeps the church's hours and helps with anything beyond the tour.
