In Prague, the urban transport system is convenient and understandable. Its operation resembles a well-oiled mechanism. Funicular, metro, buses and trams run on time.<\/span><\/p>\n

Special service from DPP, the official carrier of Prague, will not let the tourist get lost. This navigator will plot the route, and calculate the duration of the trip and the cost.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tickets<\/strong><\/h3>\n

All types of public transport have a single-fare system. With one ticket, you can ride the metro, tram and bus within one trip.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tickets differ in duration and price. A 30-minute ride costs 24 CZK, a 90-minute ride costs 32 CZK, a day pass is 110 CZK, and a three-day pass is 310 CZK. Children under six travel free. For children over six years old and pensioners there is a 50% discount.<\/span><\/p>\n

In Prague, it\u2019s better not to ride like a hare – controllers often meet and disguise themselves as \u201ccivilians\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

Underground<\/strong><\/h3>\n

There are three metro lines in the city and they intersect at Mustek (A and B), Muzeum (lines A and C) and Florenc (B and C) stations. Trains run from 5 am to midnight, and on Fridays and Saturdays – until 1:00. Stations have electronic displays indicating the remaining waiting time for the train.<\/span><\/p>\n

Trams<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Since almost all of Prague is covered with a web of tracks, it makes trams the most accessible and popular mode of transport. Tourists love route 22. The main sights of the city lie on their way: Mala Strana, Stare Mesto, Prague Castle, Nove Mesto.<\/span><\/p>\n

Trams leave the streets at 4:30 and run every 8-12 minutes. At midnight, they are replaced by night routes No. 51-59, but they run much less frequently than daytime routes – once every half an hour.<\/span><\/p>\n

Buses<\/strong><\/h3>\n

There are fewer buses in Prague than trams therefore they are not very popular with tourists. Buses run around the clock, and they also go to the suburbs. At night, routes No. 501-515 run within the city, and No. 601-610 go outside the city.<\/span><\/p>\n

Funicular<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The funicular in Prague lifts passengers to Pet\u0159\u00edn Hill, which offers a beautiful city view. The length of the route is 510 m. The funicular starts climbing from the street. The county is from the station of the same name, which is situated next to the stop of trams 9, 12, and 22.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ferries<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Ferries – lowered to the river only in the summer. Just don’t confuse a ferry crossing with a cruise ship that doesn’t have a standard travel pass.<\/span><\/p>\n

Taxi<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Here it is not customary to catch a car with a wave of your hand; it is more profitable to call a taxi by phone. Taxi drivers who wait for tourists at parking lots have a bad reputation – they allegedly overcharge and drive in a roundabout way. A taxi ride in Prague will cost 150-200 CZK and more.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
