 TRAMS -
The Prague Tram System is a great way to get around
town. Not only is it quick, but you get to see the
city's sights as you cruise to your destination. Be
especially aware of pick-pockets as they work especially
hard at the crowded peak times.

 METRO
- The Prague Metro is a simple and efficient
way to get around the city. It is divided in to three
lines the A-line (Green-line), B-line
(Yellow-line), and C-line
(Red-line) that all criss-cross under the
middle of town. For most tourist destinations you
will probably prefer to go on foot, but if you're
short on time and need to get across town to your
next pub, go underground. Tip: Don't try for a free
ride (especially on the A line).
Ticket inspectors are looking for tourist and love
to try and extract a fine (bribe?).
