Átverések és turistacsapdák itt: Prague, Czechia. Így kerüld el őket
Fotó készítője: Jarod Barton a Pexels.com-on
Prague is generally safe and honest for tourists, with the main risks being overpriced taxis from unlicensed drivers, poor exchange rates near tourist squares, and restaurants adding fees not shown on menus. The biggest thing to watch is airport taxis without a meter or a clearly displayed official fixed fare.

Gyakori átverések Prague, Czechia városában és hogyan kerülheti el őket
1. Unlicensed airport drivers
Hogyan működik: Drivers approach arriving passengers inside the terminal offering rides at inflated flat rates. They are not licensed to pick up at the airport and may use rigged meters or no meter at all.
Hogyan kerülje el: Walk to the official taxi rank outside, use a licensed car with a visible meter, or book via the Bolt, Uber or Liftago app.
2. Tourist-area exchange booths
Hogyan működik: Exchange booths near Old Town Square and Charles Bridge advertise headline rates but add huge commissions or use misleading 'buy low, sell high' spreads that appear only in fine print.
Hogyan kerülje el: Use bank ATMs or card payments. If exchanging cash, compare the final amount you receive, not the advertised rate, and avoid booths with commission disclaimers.
3. Hidden service charges
Hogyan működik: Some tourist-area restaurants add a service fee or cover charge that was not shown on the menu, or present menus with prices excluding VAT and service.
Hogyan kerülje el: Ask whether the displayed price includes VAT and service before ordering, and review the itemized bill before paying.
4. Bird poo hand trick
Hogyan működik: A person claims bird droppings landed on your shoulder or coat, wipes it off and picks your pocket or demands payment for the 'clean-up'.
Hogyan kerülje el: Politely decline help, keep moving, and keep bags and valuables in front of you. It is a staged distraction.
5. Moneychanger sleight of hand
Hogyan működik: Exchange staff count out the agreed amount slowly and deliberately, then short-change the customer by taking notes back or using sleight of hand during counting.
Hogyan kerülje el: Count your money carefully before leaving the counter, and use a bank or major ATM instead of street exchange booths.
6. Fake police checks
Hogyan működik: Someone posing as a police officer asks to check your wallet for 'counterfeit money' or 'drug checks', then removes cash while examining it.
Hogyan kerülje el: Real Czech police officers carry visible ID and never ask tourists to hand over cash in the street. Offer to walk to a police station instead.
7. Menu swap after ordering
Hogyan működik: Some restaurants present one menu with cheap prices and then present a different bill with higher prices at the end, claiming a 'different menu' for foreigners.
Hogyan kerülje el: Confirm the price of what you order when ordering, and photograph the menu with your phone so you have evidence if the bill does not match.

- Egy darab jegy
- 39 Kč (1,60 €) (30-minute ticket: 39 CZK paper, 36 CZK in the PID Litacka app; 90-minute ticket 50 CZK (2026 tariff))
- Érvényesítési szabályok

- Contactless bank cards work on trams and buses for short fares, and the official PID Lítačka app sells tickets. Daily and longer passes are good value.
Borravaló és szervizdíj
Borravaló: Rounding up the bill in restaurants is customary but not mandatory; 5-10% is appreciated for good service. Taxi drivers do not expect tips.
Helyfoglalási és szervizdíj: Some restaurants add a service charge or a fee for bread/bread basket that is not clearly shown on the menu. Ask if the VAT and service are included in menu prices before ordering, and check the bill before paying.
Kártyák, ATM-ek és valutaváltás
Always choose to be charged in CZK and decline dynamic currency conversion when prompted. Prefer ATMs attached to major banks. Some independent ATMs in tourist areas charge high fees and show misleading exchange rates. Use card payments where possible for better rates.
Területek, ahol fokozott óvatosság javasolt
- Main train station (Praha hlavní nádraží): Around the station and nearby parks late at night, keep bags closed and valuables out of sight; some reports of pickpocketing and aggressive beggars.
- Old Town and Charles Bridge: Crowded pedestrian areas attract pickpockets, especially in the evening and on trams during rush hour; keep wallets and phones in front pockets.
