With a Travel Agent in Prague

With a Travel Agent

Travel agencies can be useful for visitors to Prague; they can provide you with information and then book your tickets. Cedok, the ubiquitous Czech travel agency, provides general tourist information and city maps. Cedok will also exchange money, book accommodations, arrange guided tours, and book passage on airlines, buses, and trains. You can pay for Cedok services, including booking rail tickets, with any major credit card. The main office is open weekdays from 8:30 to 6 and Saturday from 9 to 1. Note there are limited weekend hours.

In the U.S., an agency like Tatra Travel, which specializes in Eastern and Central Europe, can save you money booking nonstop flights to the Czech Republic; the agency also can book Czech Airlines travel packages.
