Hot to get to the Prague Zoo?

There are two main ways how to get to the Prague Zoo. The first one is from Nádraží Holešovice (Metro C) to the end of the line at Zoologická zahrada or when you prefer the direct bus – so called Zoobus – you can get the one that runs from Nádraží Holešovice during the weekends or holidays in the summer season.

What about a steamboat?

The other option how to get there is definitely the romantic way by a steamboat one or both ways. People in love will appreciate this type of transport and children as well.
