What to See on a Prague Tour 7: Travel. In this film, we look at how to get around Prague and how long it takes to get there and back by plane or train. This is a Short from my new Prague mini-documentary, “Prague: Things to See”; this series of 8 short videos covers what to see, recommendations for where to go, where to eat and drink and how to get there and get around if you have just a few days to tour the Czech capital as a tourist on a short visit.
From the narration:
Trams Trams are a great way to get around Prague. The network is extensive and inexpensive and tickets can be bought easily at stations and also at Tabak shops scattered around the city. The tickets we bought were valid for 30 minutes each which is plenty of time to transfer between lines to reach your destination. Just remember to validate your ticket once only using the yellow box at the beginning of your journey. The ticket allows travel in the 3 zones covering the central tourist areas and is also valid for bus travel and on the underground Metro. You’ll see a variety of trams on the streets including some older vehicles and the occasional maintenance car. A ride on the tram is also an inexpensive way to view Prague’s fabulous cityscape, especially if you’re heading uphill to the castle.
Taxis Taxis are easy to find but make sure you get a properly licensed one to avoid overcharging. Look out for the official maximum rates displayed at the “Fair Place” taxi stands which are dotted around the city.
Walking If you’re on foot, I’d advise wearing flat shoes because there are cobbled roads everywhere! We noticed quite a few cobblestone holes too but we also saw extensive repairs underway. Even intact paving can be quite uneven and slippy when it rains, so do take care when exploring Prague as a pedestrian.
Airport Václav Havel airport is the easiest way to travel between Prague and the UK or more distant countries. The airport wasn’t crowded when we arrived for our flight to London Stansted and that made for a stress-free experience. Direct flights take under 2 hours between Prague and London and we flew back to Stansted with Ryanair.
Train However, we arrived in Prague by train. It’s a great way to see the countryside and we enjoyed the relaxing 4-hour journey from Linz in neighbouring Austria.
