About Prague

Prague, also known as the ‘City of a Hundred Spires’, is the capital of the Czech Republic and stands out as a beautiful blend of history, architecture, culture, nightlife and art.

The Vltava River divides Prague in two adding a beautiful blue-green ribbon to the historic architecture. The heart of Prague’s historic UNESCO-listed Old Town is its Old Town Square, a cobblestoned hub that has been the city’s main public space since the 10th century. One particular highlight is the Astronomical Clock, the oldest still-functioning clock in the world, which rings every hour with a delightful clockwork "The Walk of the Apostles". Gothic, baroque, and classical architecture decorates not only the Old Town Square but most of Prague’s streets and districts.

Josefov, the Jewish Quarter, is located next to the Old Town. With its poignant past, this region is home to several notable synagogues, such as the Spanish Synagogue, renowned for its exquisite Moorish decor, and the Old-New Synagogue, which is Europe's longest continuously operating synagogue.

How to get from Berlin to Prague

As two European capitals, you have plenty of travel options. We’ll break down how to get from Berlin to Prague so you can pick what’s best for you.

Berlin to Prague by car

One of the easiest ways to travel from Berlin to Prague is by car, either a rental or with a private driver. It's fast, lets you experience Germany's famous autobahn, and best of all gives you the opportunity to stop for sightseeing in Germany and the Czech Republic - something you can't do with public transportation. If you're driving yourself, familiarize yourself with the traffic laws in both countries. You'll also need to buy a vignette for the Czech highways and check the parking options in Prague in case your accommodation does not offer parking space. With a private driver with Daytrip, you don't need to worry about any of this, and they'll be able to bring you to the best sightseeing stops along the way.

Berlin to Prague by train

Traveling from Berlin to Prague by train is popular since the two capitals are connected by services such as Deutsche Bahn (German Railways) and České Dráhy (Czech Railways). There are no direct trains from Berlin to Prague - you'll need to change in Dresden, which can be a hassle if you're traveling with heavy luggage. Be sure to make reservations in advance so tickets don't sell out. Trains can be packed in peak months. But once you're onboard, sit back and enjoy the scenery!

Things to do when you get to Prague

After your trip from Berlin, you'll probably be eager to start experiencing all the things to do in Prague. Start with a world-famous Czech beer, and maybe hearty svickova (sirloin with dumplings in cream sauce) before exploring this city full of exciting cultural life, magical historical sites, and vast parks. Thanks to its great public transportation system, you can easily get around Prague.

Prague Castle and St. Vitus Cathedral

Prague Castle and St. Vitus Cathedral are a great place to start. Prague Castle is the biggest castle complex in the world and showcases several centuries of architectural styles. Within the castle complex, St. Vitus Cathedral is a masterpiece of Gothic architecture, having taken 600 years to complete! You'll need to buy a ticket if you'd like to go inside to see its beautiful interior decorations, including a stunning stained-glass window by renowned Art Nouveau artist Alfons Mucha. Golden Lane, with its row of 16th-century houses, is another highlight filled with interesting stories - like how Franz Kafka and Jaroslav Seifert both lived in house number 22! From the castle, you can walk down past the royal vineyards into Prague's UNESCO-listed Old Town for more amazing monuments including the legendary Charles Bridge, the Klementinum complex, which is home to the oldest meteorology station in the country, and a jaw-dropping Baroque library.
