Public Transport in Prague

Why go

The network is especially useful when the castle climb, river crossing or a distant neighborhood would consume the visit. Metro lines give a simple backbone, while trams bring you nearer to many central streets; buses help with areas beyond the rail routes. Plan the whole journey before boarding and check current ticket validity and service changes through the operator.

Useful to know

• Look up the complete route, including transfers, in the current city transport planner.
• Check the current ticket type and validation instructions before boarding.
• Use a tram or metro for a long or steep leg, then explore the compact historic streets on foot.
