Taxis are not cheap. By public transport the trip will cost 1 euro. By taxi it will cost around 15 euros (if you don't get ripped off). As for cool things to do, it really depends on you. I would suggest going to the castle and DOX contemporary art gallery http://www.doxprague.org/ The most simple way of getting to Pec seems to be from the bus terminal at Cerny Most, which is at the end of metro line B. There is a direct bus from there to Pec. It takes just over 3 hours and costs around 7 euros. Check out www.idos.cz for all possible connections.

There's not much to see nearby other than the Dancing Building, Manes Gallery and Vysehrad Castle. It's best to use your time to see the sights if you've never been to Prague. You can grab the #18 tram from nearby the hotel and head to either stop Staromestska or Narodni Trida. Either stop is a good place to jump off and see stuff. The cheapest way to get to the hotel from the airport is by bus/metro/tram. It's 26 Czech Crowns and will take you about 45 minutes depending on the time of day. Take the 119 bus from the airport. Get off at the last stop, Dejvicka. Walk a few metres down and go into the metro station. Go down the escalator and take any metro that's on your right. Take this two stops to Malostranska. Here, get go all the way upstairs, exit left and go to the street. Here you'll see trams. Take the #18 going toward your right. Take this straight to Albertov and your hotel is nearby. Otherwise, grab an AAA Taxi from the airport. They have the best service but it will cost you about 500 crowns. To get to Pec pod Snezkou it's easiest to take the bus. You can check schedules here: www.idos.cz. Once there find the little British flag for the English version. Have fun! Dean Hi Annie,
