You will certainly be pleased to hear that many student discounts are available in the Czech Republic. Practically all attractions, whether museums, galleries, castles or palaces offer students discounted admissions costs, with savings of up to 50 %. All that you need is to show a valid ISIC card...
Transport
- Public transport is among Europe’s cheapest – e.g. a 75-minute trip anywhere in Prague costs only 26 CZK (1 euro)
- Almost all attractive locations are easily accessible (e.g. all 12 of the UNESCO heritage sites in the Czech Republic are at most 3 hours by car from Prague)
- One of the most extensive rail networks in Europe
Internet timetables
- All transport connections in the Czech Republic can be found on a single internet timetable (www.idos.cz)
- For timetables and connections of the Prague public transport company look at www.dpp.cz
Student discounts
- Make use of the advantages of the ISIC International Student Card! (www.gtsint.cz). This assures you the lowest entrance fees into historic buildings in all of Europe – for example the main tour route of Prague Castle will then cost a mere 175 CZK (just under 6 euros) with an ISIC card, instead of 350 Kč (almost 12 euros)
