General information
There is a rich system of public transport in Prague. It combines three main types of transportation – subway (Metro), trams and buses. Metro is the best and fastest way how to reach the long-distance locations, trams and buses may be used to finalize the trip.
The price for a basic ticket is 20 CZK (about 0,7 Euro). You have to mark it when entering the Metro area, tram or bus. It is valid for 75 minutes (90 during weekends) from the timestamp and allows you to change the lines and transportation types at your will. Single ticket is sufficient for the whole trip in most cases (the only limit is the duration of your ride).
Do not care about transport zones. The whole Prague is in zone 0, so single-zone tickets are suitable for your needs. You can buy the tickets at most newspaper kiosks or coin machines available at bus/tram stations or by the Metro entrances.
Time-period tickets (for 1, 3 or 7 days) are sold at information centers located e.g. at the airport arrival hall, metro station Muzeum and Mustek. More information about the public transport is provided by the Prague public transport company.
