Before you Travel

The first tickets you should book in advance are the ones for the Castle Complex. Visiting the Castle, St. Vitus Cathedral, St. George's Basilica and the other buildings are a must for first timers in Prague, so they're usually long lines to get in.

The second tickets you should buy in advance are the ones to enter the Old Town Hall in the Main Square. Visitors love to go inside because you not only get to see beautiful views of the city from the tower, but also the mechanism of the famous astronomical clock and the undergrounds.

Finally, you should check out the tours of the Jewish Quarter to decide which one you prefer. There are two different ones, one called Jewish Town of Prague and the other Jewish Museum of Prague. Both include the most important sights of the quarter, but the Jewish Museum of Prague ticket also includes the Old-New Synagogue.
