11^th Hieracium workshop 2010

Prague has an excellent and fairly inexpensive public transportation system that is rather intuitive to understand. For searching particular connections, you can also use this link

Tickets and fares: A single ticket (26 Kč) covers all means of transportation in the whole area of Prague and is valid for 75 min from time of validation. Tickets are available at the airport, at railway stations, metro stations, and some tram/bus stops (counters or ticket machines). Průhonice is a few kilometers outside of Prague and needs an additional ticket (10 Kč) which can be bought in the bus.

Taxis are readily available, prices are comparable to those in other European countries. If you want to use a taxi, we recommend company “AAA” who has the best reputation (phone 14014).
