Everything per person, in euros. The day is the same basket across the site: a bed, two meals, city transport and admissions.

The bill goes up in one place: Villa Tugendhat, €20.50, the only ticket over twenty euros on this list, and it needs a slot booked ahead rather than bought on the spot at the last minute. The rest of the core is cheap or free — Zelný trh, the clock on Náměstí Svobody and Denisovy sady park cost nothing, and the ossuary and the Mendel Museum both stay under seven euros.

The Prague ticket has no fixed price

The train from Prague to Brno runs train (České dráhy/RegioJet, direct), 2 h 30–37 min, but the fare climbs as the date gets closer — from €4.90 (119 CZK) is only the lowest published second-class ticket.
