Boasting fewer crowds than in summer and pleasant weather, the periods of late spring and early autumn are the best times to visit Prague. Autumn lends the city even more allure as colourful trees bring to life age-old medieval structures. If you’re visiting in spring and wondering what to do in Prague, be sure to check out Prague Spring, the city’s annual international music festival.
Navigating Prague’s streets and laneways can be testing. Here’s our travel breakdown of the best ways to find your way through the city. Many of Prague’s main tourist attractions (including the Charles Bridge and Prague Castle) are within pedestrian-only zones and can be explored on foot easily. For sites further afield, Prague also has a fantastically efficient and relatively cheap public transport system with options spanning trams, the metro, buses and river cruises. As well as individual tickets, 24hr or 3-day passes grant unlimited access to all of Prague’s major public transport links, meaning taking those Prague day trips is easier than ever before.
Taxis in Prague are relatively expensive and are known to rip off travellers in dense tourist areas, so stick to public transport on your Prague tours if you can.
Some must-see attractions in Prague include Prague Castle, Charles Bridge, Old Town Square, Jewish Quarter, Wenceslas Square, National Museum, Petrin Hill, Dancing House, Vyšehrad and so on.
The Czech crown (CZK) is the official currency of the Czech Republic, although Euros are also commonly accepted. However, it is possible that you may receive your change in crowns.
Prague is a relatively safe city, although it’s always a good idea to keep these travel tips in tow during your travels. Petty thieves are known for operating throughout the city’s markets and on public transport. Therefore, look out for pickpockets. Keep your valuables close and carry small change where possible. In any emergency situation, dial 112.
