Getting to the Czech Republic

The Czech Republic is located in the eastern part of Central Europe, surrounded by Germany, Poland, Slovakia, and Austria. You can get to the Czech Republic by air, bus, train, bike, or foot. The most efficient way to get to the Czech Republic from the United States is by air, but if you happen to be in Europe already, a myriad of overland routes are available.

Dulcinea's Insight

  • If you're planning to use the Eurail Global pass to travel through Europe, be aware that it's of no use in the Czech Republic. A train pass specific to the Czech Republic, or Czech inclusion on another multi-country pass, would serve to get you around. The "Czech Republic" section of the RailEurope Web site has more information.
  • The airports in Prague, Brno,  Karlovy Vary, and Ostrava all service international flights. However, most flights from the U.S. will take you to the Ruzyne airport in Prague.
  • For much more information about booking airfare in general and Web sites that'll help you do it, see our findingDulcinea Travel Guide.
