Is it worth buying them at the ticket office?

My advice is to buy your tickets online and in advance of your travel date rather than waiting until you arrive in Prague to buy them.

There are several advantages: you won't have to look for a place to get your tickets, you won't have to pay in local currency and, above all, you won't have to wait in long and boring queues for your turn at the ticket window.

On the other hand, if you decide to buy your tickets online, you will receive confirmation of your purchase on your smartphone and on the day of your visit you simply show it at the Prague Castle entrance points to gain entry. You can also print it out if you prefer, although you don't have to - you'll save a lot of time!

That's right! From 55 € you can buy the Prague CoolPass to visit Prague Castle and more than 60 attractions in the city.

If you are planning to spend several days in the capital of the Czech Republic and you want to make the most of your stay there by seeing a multitude of tourist attractions in Prague, a good idea is to get this tourist card.

Not only will it give you access to Prague Castle and other places of interest, but you can also take a free river cruise or benefit from exclusive discounts that will help you save for the duration of your trip. Sounds great, doesn't it?

The same ticket can be used for all public transport in Prague (metro, bus and tram). The single ticket starts at €1.30 and is the most commonly used ticket for certain journeys. It is valid for 90 minutes from the moment it is validated.

There is also a limited ticket from €1 which allows you to travel on Prague buses and trams for 20 minutes, but you cannot change trains. In the case of the metro, this limited ticket is valid for 30 minutes and is valid for 5 stops. If you are going to make short journeys to get around, this is a good way to save a little money.

However, if you would like to avoid paying extra for your trip to Prague Castle, you can always book a guided tour of the monument including hotel pick-up and drop-off and buy the Prague CoolPass so you can use the city's public transport as often as you like, as this is one of the built-in benefits. It won't cost you a penny!
