It's not an exaggeration, Prague public transport is the best. Cheap, efficient and reliable, travelling around Prague and the Czech Republic is a joy.
If you are staying in Prague for longer than a month, save lots of money by buying a Travel Pass. You'll need the appropriate form (available at ticket kiosks) and a passport photograph to obtain your pass, but after that it's simple; just return to the ticket office , give them your pass and ask for a new ticket.
I buy 30 or 90 day tickets, depending on how much I'm moving around I'm doing and what I can afford. Avoid Mustek ticket office - it always has long lines of customers.
DON'T try to get away without buying a ticket. Ticket inspections are frequent and discrete. Almost everyone I know has been caught without a ticket (by accident or design) and the on-the-spot fine well exceeds the price of a 30 day pass. Apart from freeing you from the concern of getting caught, having a ticket means that you are helping keep the ticket prices down and this enviable transport system running.
