Daytrip is a platform that connects you with local drivers who will transport you door-to-door, from one city to the next. We also give you the opportunity to explore sights/attractions along the way. We drive, you discover.
All Daytrip bookings are one way. If you need a return trip on a different date, simply book this as a separate one-way trip. For a same-day excursion, please request a custom trip. If you plan to stay more than a couple hours, we still recommend booking two one way trips so you're not paying a driver for waiting.
For Daytrip’s private service, you can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before departure. For the Daytrip Pool shared shuttle, we offer 3 ticket options when booking: Non-refundable, Flexible with cancellations 24-hours before departure, and Super-flexible with cancellations up to 15-minutes before departure. While you can cancel your booking for a full refund up to 24 hours in advance, changes requested under 36 hours are subject to driver availability, especially in the high season.
Simply choose your origin and destination via our homepage and enter your departure date and time. Browse and add sightseeing stops along the way by following the booking instructions provided on screen. It's a simple, easy, and fun way to book your next adventure! And if you don’t see your desired route on our website, you can request a custom trip. You can even book without knowing your exact pick-up or drop-off address - we let you add these later!
Each passenger is allowed one large bag (29" x 21" x 11" / 74 x 53 x 28 cm) and one small bag (22" x 14" x 9" / 56 x 36 x 23 cm). Luxury sedans can only accommodate 2 large bags. We always send the vehicle that is the best fit for you and your luggage, so make sure to select the actual amount of luggage you are traveling with when booking. If you have oversized luggage, or are unsure if your luggage will fit, contact us.
Everywhere except the USA, drivers will supply appropriate child seats (just let us know during booking). In the USA, certain states require you to supply your own child seats.

About Prague
Prague, also known as the ‘City of a Hundred Spires’, is the capital of the Czech Republic and stands out as a beautiful blend of history, architecture, culture, nightlife and art.
The Vltava River divides Prague in two adding a beautiful blue-green ribbon to the historic architecture. The heart of Prague’s historic UNESCO-listed Old Town is its Old Town Square, a cobblestoned hub that has been the city’s main public space since the 10th century. One particular highlight is the Astronomical Clock, the oldest still-functioning clock in the world, which rings every hour with a delightful clockwork "The Walk of the Apostles". Gothic, baroque, and classical architecture decorates not only the Old Town Square but most of Prague’s streets and districts.
Josefov, the Jewish Quarter, is located next to the Old Town. With its poignant past, this region is home to several notable synagogues, such as the Spanish Synagogue, renowned for its exquisite Moorish decor, and the Old-New Synagogue, which is Europe's longest continuously operating synagogue.
Prague’s cultural side, on the other hand, is full of diverse choices and contains all kinds of different styles of art. While the National Museum of Prague located in Wenceslas Square, another one of the city’s busy centers, is perfect for spending most of the day in winter learning about the history of Central Europe and Prague through the vast choices of artifacts, the Museum of Communism focuses on this specific and painful period of the country. It would also be a pity to miss the Kafka Museum, and the Museum of Illusions and Mausoleum, which is a newly-opened permanent exhibition of the famous Czech sculptor David Černy.
Prague is truly a perfect example of a city that has everything for everyone, where history has seamlessly blended in with modern times and modern art. With its green parks, lakes, riverside cafés, restaurants, hills, and cobblestone streets, Prague will surely fill you with unforgettable memories.
From Berlin to Prague: Travel tips
No matter how you choose to travel from Berlin to Prague, it’s important to enjoy your trip to the fullest. Follow these simple travel tips and you’ll have a travel day to remember!
Choose the right way to travel
The trip from Berlin to Prague is 218 miles (350 kilometers), and you have several ways to cover the distance. Options include traveling by car, bus, train, or even plane depending on your preferences. But if you value comfort, taking a ride in a private car can't be beat. You can travel door-to-door on your own schedule with a friendly, English-speaking driver. And best of all, unlike public transport options, you can stop for sightseeing to enrich your travel day!
Explore the local cuisine
Both German and Czech cuisine are worth exploring. Sharing borders, the two countries also share similarities in their food, such as their love for amazing beer, sausages, meat, and anything that includes dumplings. While you are in Germany, most of the cities you stop on the way might have their own special beer and sausage. When it comes to the Czech Republic, tasting tap beers, pickled hermelin (brie), fried cheese, or one of the many other local dishes is a staple experience in the hidden pubs and restaurants in the villages before you arrive in Prague. So we recommend taking as many food stops as possible.
Pack and dress appropriately
Dress as comfy as possible for your trip since it will take at least around 4 hours without the stops. Not being bothered by your clothes will help you enjoy every second of the drive. When you arrive in Prague, expect to do a lot of walking since most of the historical and cultural attractions are within walking distance from each other. So definitely pack comfortable walking shoes, and cloth clothing to suit the weather.
How to get from Berlin to Prague
As two European capitals, you have plenty of travel options. We’ll break down how to get from Berlin to Prague so you can pick what’s best for you.
Berlin to Prague by car
One of the easiest ways to travel from Berlin to Prague is by car, either a rental or with a private driver. It's fast, lets you experience Germany's famous autobahn, and best of all gives you the opportunity to stop for sightseeing in Germany and the Czech Republic - something you can't do with public transportation. If you're driving yourself, familiarize yourself with the traffic laws in both countries. You'll also need to buy a vignette for the Czech highways and check the parking options in Prague in case your accommodation does not offer parking space. With a private driver with Daytrip, you don't need to worry about any of this, and they'll be able to bring you to the best sightseeing stops along the way.
Berlin to Prague by train
Traveling from Berlin to Prague by train is popular since the two capitals are connected by services such as Deutsche Bahn (German Railways) and České Dráhy (Czech Railways). There are no direct trains from Berlin to Prague - you'll need to change in Dresden, which can be a hassle if you're traveling with heavy luggage. Be sure to make reservations in advance so tickets don't sell out. Trains can be packed in peak months. But once you're onboard, sit back and enjoy the scenery!
Berlin to Prague by bus
The bus is usually the cheapest way to get from Berlin to Prague. Various bus companies operate the route from Berlin to Prague, such as FlixBus and RegioJet. Most of the buses run direct, so make sure you don't accidentally book one that requires a transfer. Buses depart from Berlin to Prague several different times a day, but not as often as trains. It is also important to note that buses aren't as spacious or comfortable as trains or private cars.
Berlin to Prague by plane
The flight time from Berlin to Prague is one hour, but the trip in total would last around four hours with airport transfer and so on. There are limited direct flights during the day. Flying from Berlin to Prague is more expensive than the train or bus, and if you're environmentally-minded, flying is the most detrimental.
Things to do when you get to Prague
After your trip from Berlin, you'll probably be eager to start experiencing all the things to do in Prague. Start with a world-famous Czech beer, and maybe hearty svickova (sirloin with dumplings in cream sauce) before exploring this city full of exciting cultural life, magical historical sites, and vast parks. Thanks to its great public transportation system, you can easily get around Prague.
Prague Castle and St. Vitus Cathedral
Prague Castle and St. Vitus Cathedral are a great place to start. Prague Castle is the biggest castle complex in the world and showcases several centuries of architectural styles. Within the castle complex, St. Vitus Cathedral is a masterpiece of Gothic architecture, having taken 600 years to complete! You'll need to buy a ticket if you'd like to go inside to see its beautiful interior decorations, including a stunning stained-glass window by renowned Art Nouveau artist Alfons Mucha. Golden Lane, with its row of 16th-century houses, is another highlight filled with interesting stories - like how Franz Kafka and Jaroslav Seifert both lived in house number 22! From the castle, you can walk down past the royal vineyards into Prague's UNESCO-listed Old Town for more amazing monuments including the legendary Charles Bridge, the Klementinum complex, which is home to the oldest meteorology station in the country, and a jaw-dropping Baroque library.
Old Town Square
The historic architecture of Prague's UNESCO-listed Old Town takes you back in time with the horse-drawn carriages and well-preserved buildings. At its heart is the Old Town Square. Just walking around here is one of the best things to do in Prague. The Church of Our Lady Before Týn (a rather hard name to remember) alone makes it worth a visit - it's said that the church’s architecture inspired Hogwarts, it's THAT magical. If you see crowds gathering to the side of the church, that means the 15th century astronomical clock is about to chime and perform its hourly “The Walk of the Apostles” display.
Panoramic Views From Petřín Hill
Ascend Petřín Hill from the Ujezd tram stop for a great view of Prague. You can walk up or take the funicular. If the view from the top of the hill isn't enough, head over to Petřín Tower, a miniature of the Eiffel Tower (locals like to boast that it's actually taller than the Eiffel Tower...since it's on top of a hill).
Modern Vibes: Holešovice and Karlín
Karlín and Holešovice stand out as the modern and hipster districts of Prague. Although Prague isn't necessarily known for it, these areas have some of the best café cultures in Europe. You'll find a range of cafés, where you can sip your coffee to live electronic music or browse private art exhibitions. In Holešovice, the DOX Center for Contemporary Art is a must-visit and it is very easy to find; just head towards the zeppelin.
Divoká Šárka National Park
A trip to a national park right on the tram line? Just take tram number 26 to Divoká Šárka and you can enjoy a day of hiking, walking, and picnicking. In the summer, you can even go for a swim! Less than a 20-minute walk away is Obora Hvězda, a smaller park, which is ideal for walking or cycling.
The Jewish Quarter
Explore the fascinating past of Josefov, Prague's Jewish Quarter. The simplest way to see all the key attractions is with a Jewish Museum ticket. It's worth the trip to the Jubilee Synagogue, which is near the main rail station, just outside of the Jewish Quarter.
Czech Cuisine
Central Europe's long winters required hearty meals to get through. So it shouldn't be surprising that staples of Czech cuisine are on the heavy side. Fill up on local flavors with svíčková (marinated sirloin in a creamy vegetable sauce), guláš, roast duck with cabbage and dumplings, or kulajda, a lesser-known Czech dish with lots of dill and cream. Czechs are masters of delicious and nutritious soups and broths, so you're pretty much required to have one at the start of your meal! Wash it all down with the pinnacle of Czech culture: beer.
Cheers to Beer
There is a long history of excellent beer production in the Czech Republic - if you're familiar with the pilsner-style beer, that was invented just outside Prague. Czech beers are served with a thick head. This isn't some scam though - any Czech you ask will be happy to explain how it makes drinking more enjoyable. For a true taste of Czech beer, visit old pubs and breweries such as Lokál, Strahov Monastery Brewery, and U Fleků. Famous beer brands such as Pilsner Urquell, Kozel, and Staropramen are all based here, which explains why the Czech Republic has led all countries in drinking per capita every year since 1993.
Berlin에서 Prague까지 여행에 대한 질문과 답변
No, not if you are traveling within the Schengen Area and are a citizen of a Schengen country. However, non-EU and non-Schengen travelers should check the visa requirements. If you have a visa for one of the Schengen countries, it should not be a problem to travel within the Schengen area.
The Czech Republic uses Czech Koruna (CZK). Most cafes, restaurants, shops, and museums accept payment by card, but cash-only businesses are still prevalent. Carry cash for traditional pubs, Christmas markets, food markets, and festivals.
Parking in the streets is mainly reserved for the residents of that street, so parking for more than some short period of time might result in a fine. It is better to find a parking lot near your accommodation, (or look for accommodation that offers parking space). One of the benefits of taking a ride from Berlin to Prague with Daytrip is you don't need to worry about parking!
The primary language in the Czech Republic is Czech. But English is spoken commonly in Prague as it's home to international students, expats, and locals used to foreign visitors.
The weather in Prague is generally very similar to Berlin, considering that they are not too far away. Expect hot summers and cold winters in both cities.

“A wonderful alternative to trains and planes when you have a 4+ group. Driver was punctual, pleasant, professional and well read with respect to the cities. We did Berlin to Prague. Our driver was Martin P. He had a comfortable 7 seater van. Excellent command of many languages. Try them. You will not be disappointed.”
“We had a great experience with DayTrip and our driver Riccardo. The booking process was easy with transparent pricing. Ricardo showed up early for our pick up, had bottled water for us in the car, and made sure that he only stopped at a well managed restroom along the way. Ricardo lives in Prague and was able to give us some very helpful tips for our stay. Lastly, the car was much nicer that we were expecting -- a Mercedes S class rather than the 'Passat or similar.'”
“I used Daytrip twice, to be driven from Vienna to Prague and then a few days later from Prague to Berlin. Both drives were flawless. We actually had to make small changes in our time of departure and daytrip accommodated our changes without an issue. Driver arrived early in a clean and nice car. Drove well and spoke English, in addition to other languages. Both drivers were very nice and drive well. On both trips we had elected to make stops which were available on the daytrip website and really enjoyed both stops. The drivers were knowledgeable and provided information about the stop (although that is not part of the service, we just were lucky). The price for the rides was substantially less than it would have been if our hotel concierge had arranged for a car to drive us. This is a great service that is reliable and well managed.”
“We used Daytrip last week between Berlin and Prague, with a 2 hour stop in Dresden.
Our driver (Marek) was fantastic. Very punctual. He also provided a lot of insight and conversation about life in Prague and the general region.
He gave us a very effective tour of the highlights of Dresden during our 2 hours there.
For us, the door to door service, learning experience during the trip and the 2 hour tour of Dresden were well worth the added cost, versus taking the train and such.
I am very satisfied with our experience and would recommend Daytrip's services to other travelers.”
