Travel Tips

  • Purchase transit tickets in advance and validate before boarding-Prague's public transport is efficient and easy to use.
  • Many major attractions offer discounted morning admissions or combo tickets-book online when possible.
  • Bring comfortable walking shoes; Prague's cobblestones and hilly areas can be tough on your feet.
  • Tipping at restaurants is customary (5-10%) but check your bill as service may already be included.
  • ATMs are widely available for cash withdrawals-avoid currency exchange kiosks in tourist zones due to bad rates.
