Czech Republic Travel Budget Guide

Planning Your Czech Republic Budget

Czech Republic (Czechia) remains one of Central Europe’s best-value destinations. Prague has become more expensive as tourism has grown, but it’s still significantly cheaper than Paris, Amsterdam, or London. Beyond Prague, prices drop even further in charming cities like Brno, Český Krumlov, and Olomouc.

Regional Price Differences

  • Prague: Most expensive, especially Old Town and Castle District. Still good value by Western standards.
  • Brno: Czech Republic’s second city, 30-40% cheaper than Prague with great nightlife.
  • Český Krumlov: Tourist prices in peak season, but still affordable. Beautiful medieval town.
  • Olomouc: Student city with very low prices and beautiful baroque architecture.
  • Karlovy Vary: Spa town, moderate prices outside peak spa season.

Money-Saving Tips for Czech Republic

  1. Drink Czech beer - Local pivo costs 40-60 CZK (€1.50-2.50) vs €5+ for imports. World-class at local prices.
  2. Eat at hospodas - Traditional Czech pubs serve huge portions of svíčková, goulash, or schnitzel for €5-8.
  3. Use Czech crowns - Pay in CZK not EUR. Exchange rates for EUR are terrible. Use ATMs for cash.
  4. Take trains outside Prague - RegioJet and Leo Express offer cheap, comfortable travel. Book ahead.
  5. Stay in New Town or Vinohrady - Just as central as Old Town but 30-40% cheaper accommodations.
