FAQs
The best time to visit Prague is during the spring (April-May) and fall (September-October) when the weather is pleasant and the tourist crowds are thinner. The city is also magical during the winter, especially for its Christmas markets.
Prague is known as one of Europe’s more budget-friendly cities. From affordable accommodations to reasonably priced food and attractions, travelers can enjoy a memorable experience without overspending. Public transportation is also inexpensive and easy to navigate.
Don’t miss Prague Castle, Charles Bridge, Old Town Square, and the Astronomical Clock. Lesser-known gems include Vyšehrad and Petrin Hill. Each site offers a unique glimpse into the city’s rich history and stunning architecture.
Prague is considered a very safe city for tourists. While petty crimes like pickpocketing can happen in crowded areas, violent crime is rare. Exercise common precautions, especially in tourist-heavy spots, and you’ll have a worry-free trip.
Three to four days is ideal to explore Prague’s main attractions, enjoy its rich culture, and take in its historical sites. However, if you want to dive deeper into its neighbourhoods or take a day trip, a week would be perfect.

We love @eurocampholidays and find their camps perfect for our family. Arinella Bianca is ideal if you want to be right by the beach, with a mix of peace for you but fun for the kids!
After this camp, we are moving to another Eurocamp in Tuscany! More on that soon 🇮🇹
