Located in the landlocked country of Czech Republic, the city\u2019s lavish heritage often mirrors the rich history and culture that dates back to over a millennium. Dotted with art and eccentricity, tourists are often found admiring the prolific magnificence of various sculptures and paintings in every nook and corner. Apart from monuments of historical importance, Prague is also known for its scenic beauty, as the beautiful River Vltava winds through the city. It is through Prague river cruises that one can explore a different side of Prague, and take in its beauty from the serene waters of the Vltava.<\/p>\n<h4>Why Should You Experience Prague River Cruises?<\/h4>\n<p>The River Vltava meanders through Prague, and is the best way to get a different perspective of the city. Whether it is a romantic sun down river cruise or dinner night with some friends, a river cruise in Prague gives you an opportunity to view the different attractions in a new light. The cruise boat also comes with a glass roof that allows you a spectacular panoramic view of the important monuments of Prague.What makes this experience an even more enjoyable one is the narration that keeps you interested throughout the tour. Indulge in the sights and sounds of Prague as you float by some of the most remarkable bridges around the city. Take in the splendour of the Prague castle and enjoy a cup of coffee sailing alongside the city, as the luxurious yet comfortable Prague river cruise is an experience that lasts a lifetime.<\/p>\n<h2>Comparing the Prague Card and the Prague City Pass<\/h2>\n<p>Prague is the capital city of the Czech Republic. As the historic capital of the Kingdom of Bohemia and home to multiple tourist sites, this city sees nearly 6.4 million international visitors per year \u2013 making Prague a top tourist destination spot. In fact, in 2016, TripAdvisor ranked Prague as the sixth best city in the world to visit. European cities like Prague, however, can become quite expensive to tour, which makes the Prague Card a very useful tool for travelers. What with the discounted rates or free of cost tours to popular and iconic attractions like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/blog\/prague-castle\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Prague Castle<\/a>, St. Vitus Cathedral, the Royal Palace and nearly 80 other attractions, as well as free rides on public transport, including bus, metro, tram and river ferries (and even free rides to the airport!), this pass is the perfect companion to wanderlust.<\/p>\n<h3>Prague Card<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-imgix.headout.com\/tour\/16054\/TOUR-IMAGE\/2b74f19c-c2e9-4bb8-a4d6-fcc7f2a57a14-8905-prague-skip-the-line-access-to-prague-castle-with-introduction-01.jpg?auto=compress&amp;fm=pjpg&amp;w=1300&amp;h=475&amp;crop=faces&amp;fit=min\" style=\"width: 100%;\" alt=\"Prague travel guide\" data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"1872300712\" onload=\"pagespeed.CriticalImages.checkImageForCriticality(this);\" width=\"1000\" height=\"476\"> <\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.headout.com\/city-passes-prague-sc-1008~4139\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Prague Card<\/a> is a one-stop-for-all pass that allows tourists to visit 50 tourist destinations for free, as well as nearly 40 others at highly discounted rates.

The Prague Tram comes in handy when you have to cover short distances between neighbourhoods and for crossing the river. Certain trams (51,52) are night trams and run till 4:30 AM.<\/p>\n<p> <b>Prague Tram Timings<\/b>: 5:00 AM &#8211; 12:30 AM <b>Prague Tram Frequency<\/b>: 8-10 minutes<\/p>\n<h5>Tips for using the Prague Tram<\/h5>\n<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Prague Trams are numbered from #1 and up.

It may seem as though the locals are indifferent and aloof, however it is in the Prague culture to not mingle with lesser known people. Once you get to know them, they are much nicer and friendly.<\/p>\n<p>While drinking beer In Prague, make sure that your beer is always on the coaster and that the coaster is laid out when the waiter comes to serve you. Toasting is a norm here and you are required to look into the other person&#8217;s eye before clinking the glass and saying &#8216;Na zdrav\u00ed&#8217; (To your health!). Crossing arms with another person to reach over the table is considered disrespectful here, so avoid doing that at all costs.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re invited to a Czech home, make sure you take flowers for your hosts and leave your shoes outside the house before entering.<\/p>\n<p>You are required to drive on the right in Prague and the country has a zero tolerance policy towards drunk driving.<\/p>\n<h3>Tipping in Prague<\/h3>\n<p> It is common to leave a 10% tip in Prague for most services, provided one is satisfied with the service. If you&#8217;re not happy with the service and don&#8217;t consider it tipping-worthy, you have the flexibility of not tipping and getting away without any curses. Since taxi drivers here are considered to be notorious with tourists in particular, tipping taxi drivers in Prague is not a norm. However, if you are lucky enough to have landed a gentleman, you are more than welcome to say a polite \u2018dekuji\u2019 (thank you) and leave a 5-10% tip.<\/p>\n<h2>FAQs<\/h2>\n<h4><strong>What are some must-see places in Prague?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Some of the most popular tourist attractions in Prague include the Charles Bridge, Old Town Square, and the Prague Castle.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>What is the best time of year to visit Prague?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The peak tourist season in Prague is from April to October.
