Public transportation
Stay in one of the PragueCentralHostels member hostel and you won't need any extra money for public transportation. We are located directly in historical center.
In Prague you can find buses, trams and metro (clean and safe!).
The metro system has 3 lines...A (Green), B (Yellow), C (Red).
You can get 1-day, 3-day, weekly or monthly passes. But the best thing to do is to buy single time-based tickets:
30 minute ticket = 26CZK
90 minute ticket = 32CZK
With these tickets you can travel anywhere in Prague within the time specified. These tickets are valid for all types of public transportation - buses, trams and metro.
Remember: you need ticket for your backpack/suitcase too. AND MAKE SURE you get the ticket validated by putting one end into the yellow box. The ticket only becomes valid with the time printed on it! If you don't do this, they could catch you and give you a fine!
