  Practical tips for planning your trip. Visas: Nationals of all Western European countries and New Zealand can visit the Czech Republic for up to 90 days,  and UK citizens for up to 180 days, without a visa. US passport  holders can stay for 30 days without a visa. Nationals of Australia, South Africa and many other countries must obtain a visa, which is good for a stay of between 90 and 30 days depending on your nationality.

Health: There are no health precautions for travel to the Czech Republic and no vaccinations/ inoculations are required.  Tap water is safe to drink (though the chlorination may give it an unpleasant taste), and the incidence of hepatitis is smaller than in the United States. Prague has a  number of health facilities catering especially to foreigners (with English-speaking doctors and personnel), but check with your provider to make sure you are eligible for coverage abroad.  

Electricity: 220V, 50 Hz AC

Tourism: 17 million visitors 

May, June and September are the prime visiting months, with April and October as chillier and sometimes cheaper alternatives. Most Czechs take their holidays in July and August when hotels and tourist sights are more than usually crowded, and hostels are chock-a-block with students, expecially in Prague and the Krkonose and Tatras mountain resort areas. Luckily, the supply of bottom end accommodation increases in large towns during this time, as student hostels are thrown open to visitors. Centres like Prague, Brno and the mountain resorts cater to visitors all year round. Elsewhere, from October or November until March or April, most castles, museums and other tourist attractions, and some associated accommodation and transport, close down.

Practically every day is a saint's day in the Czech Republic, and 'special days', festivals and public holidays are widely acknowledged. On 30 April in Prague, the Czech version of Walpurgisnacht, Paleni Carodejnic (Burning of the Witches)  is a pre-Christian festival for warding off evil. Politically incorrect witch burning is now replaced by all-night bonfire parties on Kampa Island and in suburban backyards. High culture follows for the remainder of the year with the Prazske jaro (Prague Spring) International Music Festival in May and June, the Prague International Book Fair also in May and the Mozart Festival in September. The Christmas-New Year season closes the year quietly for most of the Czech Republic, but Prague is overcome with tourist revelry during a fast and furious holiday season.
