Top Things to See and Do in Beautiful Prague

As soon as you step on to the convenient Prague airport transfers for your accommodation, you’ll be heading into a wonderful and vibrant city, full of both historical and modern features. The difficulty is in deciding which of the many great attractions you will visit during your time there.

Whether it’s sampling the local beer, immersing in the art, learning about puppets or visiting a castle that dates back over 1,000 years, this capital city will keep you busy as soon as you’ve settled in from your Prague airport transfers. Here's a taste of what you might see.

The Castle

This castle is often the first stop on the itinerary of many visitors to the city. It dominates the city’s skyline, with a cathedral in the middle of the grounds. There are wonderful historic and architectural displays within the Old Royal Place and the Lobkowicz Palace, complete with a grand educational museum, restaurants and bars.

Puppet masters

Local puppet shows are fantastic and entertaining for both children and adults and depict the fascinating history of the Czech Republic. The productions are changed regularly, and you can even buy your own puppet to take home and impress your friends.

Sample the Local Beer

There is a huge variety of local beers and, in fact, they are a major attraction of the city. If you take an interest, you can quickly become an expert on the different beers and lagers, and make your own decisions as to the best. At the same time, you can sample the many different choices of food from the city centre pubs. The prices are very reasonable low and, if you're adventurous, you may even grow to love raw beef on deep fried toast with head cheese!

Getting Romantic

The old and new town halls are popular venues for those who choose to get married in this wonderful city. Should you not quite be at that stage, there are plenty of romantic locations to pop the question! The city is very popular for destination weddings and local wedding planners can guide foreigners through the local requirements.

Getting There

The convenient Prague airport transfers will help get you and your luggage to your accommodation quickly and efficiently. There’s no metro or train connection to get you from the airport into the city, so queuing and longer journeys will be necessary if you don’t plan ahead.

If you have a weekend or longer to spare, this delightful city is well worth a visit. As mentioned, you should book your Prague airport transfers ahead, but with so much to see and do, it pays to plan your itinerary to a certain degree as well. You may even be lucky enough to plan a holiday to coincide with one of the many cultural events the city takes part in, as it is well-renowned as one of the major centres of culture in Europe.
