Prague Airport to Prague
Overview
Prague's cobbled centre is a joy to wander once you arrive, but the road from the airport is not the place to start a holiday hunting for tram tickets in an unfamiliar currency. A local partner driver working with Haqqi Tours has your flight logged before you land, stands at Prague Airport arrivals with your name on a board, and takes your party in a V-Class or Sprinter the whole way to the hotel entrance in the city. The figure for this Prague Airport transfer is confirmed on WhatsApp well before departure, so the only conversation left once you land is which way to the castle first. Couples on a short romantic break and families visiting the castle both start their stay the same relaxed way, with the return leg just as easily arranged.

Route details
About the destination
Prague is often described as a fairy-tale city, with a castle overlooking the Vltava river, a medieval Old Town of narrow lanes and coloured facades, and a famous astronomical clock that still draws a crowd on the hour. It rewards travellers on foot, since most of the historic centre sits within walking distance of the main bridges, and its beer halls, small theatres and riverside walks give it an easy pace for a short stay. Prague suits couples on a weekend break, families exploring the castle grounds and the Charles Bridge together, and travellers who enjoy a compact old city where nearly every street corner offers a view worth pausing for.
