Public transport in Czech Rep.

Prague is the only city in the Czech Republic with an underground train system — a network that exists in conjunction with the city’s tram and bus services. Whilst Brno — another major location — doesn’t have its own metro, like Prague, it does have an equally dependable tram system. Other major cities like Olomouc and Plzen also have great transit infrastructure.

As said, for intercity travel, the Czech Republic’s train services are highly recommended. Not only is the network extensive, but tourists can enjoy discounted tickets when traveling in groups. Advanced bookings are recommended on popular routes.

How to get from the airport to the main cities in the Czech Republic

The Czech Republic’s main airport is Václav Havel Airport Prague (PRG). Those looking to travel from the airport to the city should use the Aeroport Express bus service that runs to Prague’s main train station.

The Czech Republic’s second largest airport operates in Brno – Brno–Tuřany Airport (BRQ). As with Prague, the best mode of transport from the airport is the bus. The bus E76 goes to the city center.
