4 HOW TO GET TO THE GUESTHOUSE FROM THE AIRPORT BY TAXI The guesthouse is about 30 minutes by taxi from the airport. The best option is to take an AAA taxi. AAA s taxi stands can be found at the airport in front of Terminal 1, Exit D, and Terminal 2, Exit E. The fare should be approximately 480 crowns. Phone AAA on if you wish to call for a taxi. Profi Taxi offers similar prices (tel ). Other taxi firms operating in the airport area charge around 800 crowns. FROM THE AIRPORT BY PUBLIC TRANSPORT To travel by bus and metro you will first need to buy a 32-crown ticket (valid for 90 minutes in the three central fare zones). Ticket vending machines are situated at the airport, in all metro stations and at some bus stops. The ticket must be validated (once only) in one of the small yellow machines as you board the bus. During the day: 1. Take the No. 119 or No. 179 bus from the airport bus stop (Letiště) to Dejvická (the final stop). Buses run every 15 minutes.
