Capital of the Czech Republic, Prague is a historical city laced with architectural and cultural wonders. While much of the city is pedestrian friendly, car rental is your best bet for seeing the sights beyond the capital.
There are several different quarters in the city. Important landmarks such as Prague Castle, St Vitus's Cathedral and the Jewish Quarter can all be visited without a car. You will find public transport better for visiting the Old and New Town, and the National Theatre and National Museum.
However, we do recommend using car rental as a means of visiting locations outside the city-centre, such as the nearby town of Kutna Hora, built on the success of its silver mines in the 13th century. Or perhaps you could take a trip to the Pilzner Brewery. If you have car rental you'll need a designated driver.
Prague is a truly magical city. Its unique architecture and rich history belie the fact that this is now a modern, vibrant and cosmopolitan capital. Car rental ensures you have the full freedom to explore Prague and its surroundings.
Wherever you go in Prague, make sure that car rental is top of your agenda. With such a lot to offer, car rental really is the best way to see Prague and surrounding Bohemia.
