We have 2 possible routes:

Route 1
------------
(Cologne -> Limburg -> Wiesbaden ->) Frankfurt -> Aschaffenburg -> Würzburg -> 
Erlangen -> Nürnberg -> Amberg -> Waidhaus -> Stribro -> Pilsen -> Pisek -> 
Budweis -> Nove Hrady 

distance: 600 km. (800 from Cologne)
estimated time: 8:30 hours (10:30 hours)

On this route the closest point to Prag is Pilzen. A route via Prag would be 
additionally 120km.

Route 2
-------------
(Cologne -> Limburg -> Wiesbaden ->) Frankfurt -> Aschaffenburg -> Würzburg -> 
Erlangen -> Nürnberg -> Neumarkt -> Regensburg -> Passau -> Wels -> Linz -> 
Wullowitz -> Nove Hrady 

distance: 650 km. (850 from Cologne)
estimated time: 9 hours (11 hours)


BTW, I found an interesting page about travelling to Czechia (in german):
http://www.wolff-travel.com/deutsch/aktuell/tipps_und_infos/visaundeinreise/czsk.htm

This gives the following additional costs:

Route 1:
Czechian vignette	800 KC, 24 EUR
Czechian tax	for busses 	500 km -> ~500 KC, 15 EUR

Route 2:
Austrian vignette	25,40 EUR
Czechian tax 	for busses	100 km -> ~100 KC, 3,15 EUR	

All European countries except Germany seem to like waylaying.... Anyways, I 
think both is ok. The Czechian tax is per person and per km.

Yes, I think we can arrange something.
