Where are the pubs? How do I get there?
Transportation to and from Ruzyne Airport (PRG) and the Prague town center
Ruzyne International Airport is about 20 km (30 minutes) west of the historic center of Prague.
There are ATMs (AMEX, VISA, MC) and an exchange office in the arrival hall.
Get some cash and buy a pack of gum or a Metro/Bus ticket to break those big bills.
  There are 3 easy ways to get to the Prague Center.
TAXI - The first and probably easiest way to get into town is by taxi. There will be several shiny new VW Passat (or Škoda) cars with Visa stickers on the doors waiting just outside the arrival hall. The price should be 550 CZK to the town center. There is a sign as you leave the arrival hall that reassures you there is a flat rate down to the Old Town but conveniently the prices have been scratched off. The drivers are notorious for ripping people off so ask first and walk away if they try to screw you. The price will be more to your hotel so get dropped off at Wenceslas Square and walk from there.

ARRANGE PICKUP - If your hotel doesn't offer pick-up and drop-off service (few do) you can try a private company. They'll usually give you a reliable ride at a price that's very reasonable.Some can even be waiting when you arrive.

PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION - This option has one distinct advantage - you can cruise under all the traffic in or out of the town center (which can be terrible at peak times). There are 4 easy steps to get to town using Bus #119 and the A Metro Line or Bus #100 and the B Metro Line . For maps and more information see the Metro section of this site.

  1. Buy one 20 CZK ticket from the Public Transportation Kiosk in the arrival hall or from the coin operated machine at the bus stop (remember to hold on to the ticket until you get to your final destination. Transit police love to fine tourists). The #119 and #100 bus stop is located in the centre of the car park in front of the arrival hall and leaves every 10 minutes between 04:30 and 23:30.
  2. Punch your 20 CZK ticket when you get on the bus. It is good for 75 minutes (90 minutes on weekdays between 20:00 and 05:00 and weekend days).
  3. You'll be dropped at the Dejvická Metro Station (bus #119) which is the west end of the A- Metro Line or the Zličín Metro Station (bus #100) which is at the west end of the B- Metro Line .
  4. Take the Metro to the stop closest to your hotel (hotel staff should tell you). The A Line and B Line cross in the heart of downtown Prague on the west end of Wenceslas Square at the Můstek Metro Station ( 4th stop or 12th stop ).
