Getting around

Walking is best within the historic centre, covering Prague Castle, Charles Bridge, Old Town Square, and Josefov on foot. For the wider city, the Metro system is your backbone, with Line A serving the castle area and Wenceslas Square, and Line C reaching the National Museum and Vyšehrad. A 72-hour travel pass covers all trams, buses, and metro for roughly 330 CZK. Trams 22 and 12 are handy for Petrin Tower and Letna Park. Use trams to reach Naplavka Market or Riegrovy Sady, and walk across the Vltava to the Dancing House. For late returns, Bolt or Uber cost about 30 CZK per kilometer, with Liftago as a local alternative.
