Taking thebus in Prague? Nothing could be simpler! While it is true that the city center can be visited on foot, it is also true that the suburbs and some special stops, especially when traveling with children and the elderly, should be reached by taking advantage of public transportation.

So let’s see what you need to know about Prague buses.

Buses in Prague

Bus tickets in Prague are really very cheap and are also valid on streetcars, metro and funicular. Of course, the ticket should always be obliterated not only for fairness, but also because checks, especially on tourists, are very frequent.

Once on the bus you will figure out where you are and what the next stop is by looking at the screens and listening to the recorded voices. Remember, however, that the stops marked with the letter “M” are the same ones that give you access to the subway.

Schedules

Also be aware that the Czech capital provides you with this 24-hour public transportation service and that rides are scheduled to have a frequency that fluctuates from 6 to 20 minutes. On weekends, however, the pace will be a little less fast.

Buses to and from the airport

There are three lines designed to move from the city to the airport and back: the 119, the 100 and the Airport Express. The first two are definitely the busiest. The 119 is useful for those who need to get right to the center of Prague or to a stop on the A line of the metro. The 100 better suits the needs of those who need to intersect the metro B line.

TheAirport Express stops near Terminal 1 and operates only from 5:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. It connects users with the station and metro line C stops. In this case, tickets must be bought on board the car.
