Important Safety Information

In terms of public safety, Prague is similar to all big European cities. Tourists are often targeted by pick pockets and rogue traders. We would like you to spend lovely and unforgettable times in Prague. There are some recommendations:

For your own safety, and for the safety of your money, credit cards, other valuables and your travel documents, please, follow not just the usual precautions (keep an eye on them at all times, leave them in the hotel and do not carry them with you to the city, etc.), but specifically:

· be careful about your handbags and wallets in any public and especially touristic places where a crowd might be present (even if it does not look like it is actually crowded). Be especially careful if you approach a crowd that looks artificially created in a situation where you would not expect a crowd (such as a half-empty underground train or tram or bus car).

· be alert when someone stands too close to you in public transport, metro escalators or at the stops, or even touches you pretending it is crowded, regardless if it really is or is not.

· change money only in the bank, official exchange offices or ATMs or use your credit cards for payments. Be careful when using the ATM.

Foreign Exchange and Banking

The official currency in the Czech Republic is Czech Crown (CZK). One can find many exchange offices and banks in Prague or to get CZK in ATM. All major international cards are accepted in shops, hotels and restaurants.

 

Shops and Shopping Centers

Most shops and shopping centers open the whole week from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Big shopping centers are closed during state holidays.
