3 Marvellous Must-See Attractions in Prague

Your quick and convenient airport transfers to Prague will bring you right into the heart of the action, so you're ready to take on the many things this wonderful city has to offer.

While there are far too many attractions to list in one place, we've chosen just three that we think no visitor should omit from an itinerary.

The funicular railway

You'll need to head to what's know as the Lesser Town to catch this railway, and it will take you all the way up to the top of Petrin Hill (which you may glimpse from the window of your transfers to Prague). As the railway ascends the hill you will have wonderful views out both sides, heading out of the Lesser Town and up the hill itself. It is a spectacular journey and once you get to the top you can spend some time enjoying the panoramic vista Petrin Hill has to offer.

The famous Dancing House

Have you ever seen a house dance? You can see just that here, and there is a chance your transfers to Prague will take you right past it! But even if they do you should take the time to go back and have a closer look. This strangely shaped building simply begs to be photographed, but you still won’t be able to believe your eyes! The building is relatively new, having been constructed in the mid-90s, so is very modern in nature. You can only visit the top floor, but it offers great views and you can enjoy the many treats that await you in the Ginger and Fred Restaurant - an appropriate name for a restaurant in a dancing building!

The Charles Bridge

This is known locally as Karluv Most. Your transfers to Prague won’t actually take you across the bridge, as it is open only to foot traffic. As such, you can take your time wandering across from one side to the other, enjoying the picturesque views and spotting some of the biggest attractions in the city. The famous orange-red rooftops are evident on both sides of the river, and if the weather is good you can spend time on the taking lots of photos, as it is an excellent vantage.

This is a spectacular city with many treats to share with the adventurous visitor. Knowing where to begin your own personal journey can be difficult, but that's half the fun! Start with the three attractions we've chosen above and create your own itinerary of favourites.
