Best Time to Visit Czechia
For a luxury escape, the best time to visit is during the shoulder seasons of May, June, and September. During these months, the weather is pleasantly mild, and the gardens of Prague and Karlovy Vary are in full bloom or showcasing autumn colors. Visiting during these periods also ensures you avoid the peak summer crowds, allowing for a more exclusive and peaceful experience at major attractions.
Currency & Money
The official currency is the Czech Koruna (CZK). While the Czech Republic is part of the EU, the Euro is only accepted in a few tourist spots and usually at a poor exchange rate. Credit cards are universally accepted in luxury hotels, high-end restaurants, and boutiques. Tipping is customary in the Czech Republic; for exceptional service in high-end venues, a tip of 10% to 15% is standard and highly appreciated.
Getting Around Czechia
Intercity travel in Czechia is most comfortable via the national rail carrier, České dráhy, which offers excellent First Class and Business Class services on its Pendolino and EuroCity trains. For maximum privacy and flexibility, private chauffeur services are widely available and recommended for transfers between Prague and regional hubs like Karlovy Vary. Within Prague, the city is very walkable, but Uber and Bolt offer premium vehicle tiers for quick urban transit.
