Public Transportation

General

Public transportation – metro (subway), trams, and buses – is an excellent means of transport in Prague. It operates from 5 a.m. till midnight, and there are special night trams and buses. Tickets can be bought in yellow vending machines (in each metro station) or at news-stands for CZK 24 (30 minutes) or CZK 32 (90 minutes). A ticket must be time-stamped upon boarding a bus or tram for the first time or at the entrance to the subway. A time-stamped ticket remains valid for the time announced. As long as the ticket is valid, you can make as many transfers as you wish. A one day (24 hrs) card can be purchased for CZK 110, and a three-day (72 hrs) card for CZK 310.
