Bus 119 plus metro line A reaches the centre from the airport in about 40 minutes on one timed ticket.

Tram 22 runs from the centre up to Prague Castle and saves the climb.

Charles Bridge is empty at 6am and shoulder to shoulder by 10am. It is worth the early alarm.

Use bank ATMs rather than Euronet machines, and always choose to be charged in koruna.

## Local knowledge

Contributed by guides, operators and creators on the ground. Community advice, kept separate from official sources.

Cross Charles Bridge at sunrise

By nine it is a market. At six it is empty, misty off the river, and the statues actually read against the sky.

Local guide Petr Novak

Take tram 22 up, walk down

It drops you above Prague Castle so you tour it downhill and finish in Mala Strana for lunch.
