Prague car rentals from $16/day

Smaller cars such as compacts, sedans, and coupes are by far your best option for car type in Prague. There are many small streets and narrow alleys throughout the city that can be quite difficult for larger cars such as SUVs or trucks to navigate, especially in the older and more historic parts of town. Also, parking can be a major issue for larger cars, as some of the streetside parking spaces can be quite tiny.

The speed limit in built-up areas is 50 km/h (31 mph) while outside of towns and cities it goes up to 90 km/h (56 mph). On motorways and highways the speed limit is usually around 130 km/h (81 mph).

Parking garages are one of the better options for drivers in Prague. Parking spots in the downtown area, especially in the central business district, fill up quickly during the work week, so garages are often your best bet for guaranteeing a parking spot. Streetside parking is still available, but it is limited in quantity during the peak business hours of the day.

Yes, most highways that connect Prague to other cities are toll roads. In the Czech Republic, tolls are paid through the purchase of a toll sticker, or “vignette”, that is placed on the windshield. For most passenger vehicles, stickers cost about Kč310 ($13.15) for a 10-day sticker, Kč440 ($18.66) for 30 days, or Kč1,500 Kč ($63.62) for a year. Prague car rentals should offer the sticker; you can also buy one online, at post office branches, and at some gas stations.
