Private car transfer
from Prague to Berlin

Your next stop can be enjoying the Baroque architecture of Moritzburg Castle, making it a convenient visit with its short distance to Dresden. Because Germany is famous for its remarkable castles with their breathtaking views and rich histories, this stop might be too good to miss. With its four rounded towers, bright red bricks on its roof, and the tranquil lake around it, Moritzburg is guaranteed to help you travel a few centuries back in time.

As the car approaches Berlin, the landscape gradually becomes more urban and the city slowly starts rising with its high towers and buildings. The cultural differences between the two capitals becomes even more clear once you enter the city’s surroundings via the smooth highway.

A day in Berlin can be spent in countless ways according to your preferences and interests. Berlin stands out as a cultural hotspot, a tapestry of art and culture. The city is home to many cultural wonders, from world-renowned architectural sites such as Brandenburg Gate and Berlin TV Tower to the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra and the Museum Island.

One of Berlin's big draws is its famous music and nightlife scene. Berlin is the place to find apex performances in every genre, be it classical music, lounge, or techno. Areas such as Kreuzberg and Friedrichshain are internationally famous for the vast range of entertainment. One of the best things about Berlin is that after enjoying the city at night, you can relax and refresh the day after in the city’s green spaces, such as Berlin Central Park (Tiergarten) and its nearby Lake Wannsee.

Berlin's cultural diversity has made the city a spectacular place for sampling authentic international cuisine. Sure, German beer gardens and traditional German dishes are staples, but then there's Berlin's unofficial signature dish - the döner kebab. Meanwhile, some say the best fried sushi is in Berlin, so be sure to explore the immense culinary diversity.

Only use bank ATMs

Certain businesses try to take advantage of international travelers with exorbitant fees and bad exchange rates. Some can even be more sinister with card skimmers. Save yourself some money by only using official bank ATMs to withdraw cash.

Comfort and snacks

The ride from Prague to Berlin isn't unbearably long, but there's no reason to make the trip as comfortable as possible. Wear comfortable shoes and clothes, especially if you're going to stop for sightseeing. And pack some snacks - local treats make watching the scenery passing your windows even more enjoyable.

Prep some language apps and basic phrases

Prague and Berlin welcome millions of international travelers every year, so you won't have a problem communicating in English in most places. However, you might find English is not enough in traditional pubs or when communicating with officers or people you might meet in the small towns or villages on your way to Berlin. To prepare for these cases, keep a language app downloaded on your phone and learn the basic phrases to make your interactions kinder and smoother. Everyone appreciates when you make the effort to learn a little of their local language!

Prague to Berlin by bus

If you're on a budget, the bus is the cheapest way to get from Prague to Berlin. Bus service is provided by companies such as FlixBus, Eurolines, and RegioJet. Depending on the route and stops, the travel time is usually between 4.5 and 6 hours, which is longer than by rail. Buses arrive at several areas in Berlin after leaving from Florenc, Prague's major bus terminal. Since bus rides are a bit cheaper, they're also less comfortable and more crowded. Book your tickets in advance, especially during peak travel times, to make sure they don't sell out.

Prague to Berlin flight

Several airlines, including Ryanair, Lufthansa, easyJet, and Eurowings, offer flights from Prague Vaclav Havel Airport to Berlin Tegel or Berlin Brandenburg Airport. Flying isn't recommended though. There aren't always direct flights from Prague to Berlin, it's often more expensive, and transportation to and from the airport, plus having to arrive 1-2 hours before your flight adds to the travel time and cost.

Prague to Berlin by private car

A private car with Daytrip is the most convenient and enriching way to travel from Prague to Berlin. Door-to-door service means you save time and stress, and your friendly, English-speaking driver will happily offer their insights along the way.

Next, head to Berliner Dom, Berlin's cathedral. Located on Museum Island, after admiring its Renaissance and Baroque Revival architecture, you can visit some of Berlin's best museums, like The Pergamon Museum, The Bode Museum, and many more. From Museum Island, continue to the Berlin TV Tower for its panoramic views of the city, and explore the famous Alexanderplatz nearby.

Then, of course, there's the Berlin Wall and East Side Gallery. The remaining parts of the wall that divided Germany are covered with social and political murals. Afterwards, head to the Oberbaum Bridge. It connects the two districts of Kreuzberg and Friedrichshain, where you'll find famous street art, alternative culture, and diverse culinary scenes and nightlife.

Berlin is also famous for its markets. One of the best is Hackescher Markt, located near the Berliner Dom. Its historical architecture, lively restaurants and cafes, interesting design shops, and hip vibes make for a great place to spend the day. If you're a vintage lover and thrift seeker, you'll be in paradise browsing vintage finds and handcrafted goods while listening to live music at Mauerpark Flea Market.
