City Buses (in Prague)

 If you’re staying in Prague then you probably won’t be using buses, unless you are staying in some obscure suburbs. Also buses are not allowed in the city centre as they produce noxious fumes and the streets are too narrow, so they transport people from the suburbs to tram and metro stops outside the centre. Tickets are available from all the usual agents (if you have change you can buy ticket directly form driver at extra charge).

Throughout the night there are 12 buses which go to the outer areas not sewed by the tram and metro system. Night-time service is mainly provided by bus numbers 502 to 514 and 601 to 603.

Bus schedules are located at individual stops. Regular buses operate from 4.30 a.m. - 12 p.m. Daytime buses run from 4:30 a.m. till midnight in 6-8 min. intervals in peak hours, 10-20 min. intervals in the off hours, and 15-30 min. intervals on weekends. Night buses (numbers 501-512) run from 00:30 a.m. till 4:30 a.m. in a 40 min. intervals.

Basic fare: 26 CZK. Tickets purchased from driver: 30 CZK.
