Transport by own car
It is not recommended to use your own car for getting to the centre; there are traffic jams and extreme difficulties to find a parking lot. Street level parking needs a special permit (only for residents and local business) or are expensive (around 60-70 CZK/hour/24 hours), underground parking usually has space, but is even more expensive (one underground parking is located under the Náměstí Jana Palacha, https://mapy.cz/s/fuvaderaca ).
Taxi
Prague taxi drivers are, unfortunately, notorious for trying to overcharge tourists. Be sure about the price per kilometer before entering any taxi. When possible, call for your taxi rather than hailing one on the street. Some more serious and safer taxi companies are, e.g., AAA (tel. 14014) or TickTack (tel.14222). Especially the cabs waiting in groups on Wenceslas Square, Old Town square or similar central locations are to be taken as predators and it is recommended to avoid them.
