Visitor Information

Information Offices

E-Travel, a private Prague-based firm, has developed a fantastic set of websites, including www.travel.cz for general Czech tourist and accommodations information and www.apartments.cz for booking private apartments online. Start any trip planning here.

The former Communist-era state travel agency, Cedok, is now privatized so its only U.S. office has long since closed its doors, but you can contact English-speaking staff through its London or Prague offices or via the Internet. In the United Kingdom, the address is 314-22 Regent St., London W1B 3BG (tel. 020/7580-3778; www.cedok.com). You can call the Prague main office for advance bookings at Na Príkope 18, Praha 1 (tel. 224-197-632; www.cedok.cz).

Once in the country, you'll find an information desk at Prague's newly remodeled Ruzyne Airport. It offers basic help but isn't yet at a standard to match most Western convention and visitors' bureaus. Accommodations information can be found through the private firm AVE Ltd. at www.avetravel.cz.

Internet Information

Those hooked up to the Web can find updated information in English on the official Czech Foreign Ministry site at www.czech.cz. See above for the Cedok, AVE, and E-Travel websites. For general tips, check out the Prague Information Service at www.pis.cz or www.prague-info.cz. The website www.expats.cz, geared toward expats living in Prague, can be a great resource for specific information and opinionated discourse on topics about the capital. And for the latest city lights and sights, try the weekly Prague Post website at www.praguepost.com.
