Money & Currency
Get a travel card →Czech Koruna, CZK
Avoid exchange offices in tourist zones; use bank ATMs (e.g. Česká spořitelna, KB) for better rates, and never accept the ATM's 'dynamic currency conversion'.
Contactless cards and Apple/Google Pay accepted almost everywhere in shops, restaurants, and public transport ticket machines; small stalls or cash-only pubs may still require cash.
Round up the bill or add 10% in restaurants; taxi drivers don't expect tips but rounding up is fine; hotel staff: 50-100 CZK for housekeeping per night, 20-50 CZK for porter.
Eat, Shop & Travel on a Budget
Cheap car hire →A filter or small espresso from a bakery or café kiosk: around 45-60 CZK.
Daily menu (denní menu) at a pub or bistro: soup + main for 130-170 CZK.

Look for chlebíčky (open sandwiches), langoš, or trdelník stands near transport hubs, but trdelník is tourist-priced; for real cheap eats, try samoobsluha (self-service) cafeterias in residential areas.
Lidl, Penny Market, and Billa are common in the 16900 area.
Shopping centres like Nový Smíchov (one tram away) have H&M, C&A, and KiK; second-hand shops (sekáč) are scattered around Dejvice.
Unlimited 72-hour pass for 330 CZK; from Václav Havel Airport, take bus 119 to Nádraží Veleslavín (free with pass) then metro A; a 24-hour pass costs 120 CZK.
Always buy public transport tickets at machines (avoid driver surcharge); eat lunch at a denní menu pub instead of tourist restaurants; fill water bottles from free drinking fountains in parks.
