Jai Michael is Editor-in-Chief of the ULTIMATE City Guides. With more than 25 years in the media industry, he founded ABSOLUTE brighton and London TV, and has worked with leading luxury brands around the world.

How we choose

Every place in our lists has been checked against its own website or an official source such as Prague City Tourism (prague.eu), Prague Castle (hrad.cz), PID and DPP, Václav Havel Airport Prague, České dráhy, CzechTourism, the Czech Film Commission, UNESCO, the Terezín Memorial or The MICHELIN Guide. MICHELIN stars are quoted only from the 2026 MICHELIN Guide Czechia. We use no ratings, and we leave out anything we can’t confirm.

Before you go

Opening hours, seasons and timetables change often. Please check directly with each place, and with official sources, before you travel. Prices are in Czech crowns (CZK).
