Prague What to Pack

Luggage and bags: I took a small suitcase with a handle to pull along as it was better than a huge backpack. Gaz took a bagpack and found it to be too heavy when walking around to get the metro and bus.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Take layers of clothes as the weather is unpredictable, some days it was cold and windy then it would be sunny and warm. So make sure you take a warm jacket and layers underneath.

Photo Equipment: Take a good camera to get some nice photos of all the architecture and lovely buildings of Prague and nice views from the bridge and tower.

Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: A good pair of walking shoes is needed as you can spend many hours walking around the town.

Miscellaneous: A map of Prague is a must.... when we got hold of one we managed to find our hotel within 10 minutes.

Photo Equipment: Ensure you bring a tripod as there are great opportunities to take amazing night shots of Charles Bridge, Prague Castle, Old Town Square, Tine Cathedral and other Prague highlights as they are all lit up at night.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Leave your stilettos at home. You walk a lot in Prague. And on the cobblestones you need much better shoes than on a normal pavement. Take sneakers, boots for tramping, definitely something without heals.
We were in Prague in March. And it was simply freezing. I had to buy a shawl and gloves since I expected spring. But with heavy winds and lot of clouds wheather felt more like deep autumn than a nice spring day. Don't forget warm sweaters. You'll really need them!

Photo Equipment: Lots of films, huge memory cards - you can't stop taking pictures in Prague.

Luggage and bags: A wheeled suicase is fine although there are sometimes steps only out of the metro & cobbled streets therefore my advice is a backpack.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Good walking shoes, in winter shoes with a good grip & waterproof, a good waterproof windbreaker. In warmer weather take something to cover your shoulders if going into Jewish synagogues.

Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Depending on what price hotel you stay toilet paper may equate to sandpaper so take your own fluffy soft stuff :-) You can purchase medicine like headache tablets at the chemists but language problems may make this more difficult.

Photo Equipment: camera of course the scenary makes for some spectacular shots. Be careful with your camera equipment

Miscellaneous: smart clothes if you go to the opera / theatre.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: If you are planning a visit to Prague, make sure you have really comfortable shoes. I have never seen a city in Europe where there are more cobble stones then in the one. Especially the Old City Square and the Prague Castle can be hell if you decide to wear high heels (I think :P)

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: We went there in January, probably the coldest month for Prague.You should take your warmest hat and gloves.And don' t forget to take your boots with you.

Photo Equipment: You'll find millions of things worth to take photographs so take batteries for your camera.

Luggage and bags: Bring a back pack to avoid the pickpokets and carry it in front (NOT on your back). it will give you much free hands to take pictures.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: polar clothes and wool socks, gloves, beret (or cap), a nice coat-whatever to keep you warm if you are from a mediterranean country and it is mid-winter. believe me, you haven't ever seen this much cold in your life.

Toiletries and Medical Supplies: lipstick to protect your lips from cracking and a good hand cream (neutrogena meybe?)

Photo Equipment: lots of batteries and a big memory card (1 GB will be OK for 3 days stay)

Photo Equipment: This is a beautiful city so take a lot of films ot if you have a digital camera take a big memory card.
I took both and with the regular camera i took 250 pictures and on my digital 430.

Luggage and bags: 1 large rucksack, which is comfortable to carry, to pack everything in.
1 small rucksack, to use as a daysack, to carry on your front.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Comfortable shoes - most streets are cobbled!
Warm and cold weather clothes - several thin layers are best due to the changable weather.
NOTE: don't wear heeled shoes around town unless you're just out for the evening!
NOTE: most hostels have washing facilites so you don't have to pack clother for every day of your trip.

Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Any medication you use - also bring the packaging to show to a pharmacist if you need more.
Small versions of washkit items (toothpaste, shampoo, etc) to keep down weight & bulk.
Toilet paper - if your precious about what you wipe your bum with. Czech toilet paper is fine for most people. Boots (UK) do a small box which is much better than bringing a roll.

Photo Equipment: You will definately want a camera. Make sure you keep it safe. Your best bet is to secure it to your belt & hang it round your neck or, even better, keep it in your daysack on your front.
Film seems easy to get hold of. If you have a digital camera extra storage cards are expensive so buy before you travel.

Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: If you're going to camp check with the campsite you are going to stay at as to whether you can rent items from them. This will keep weight & bulk down.

Miscellaneous: Adapter: If necessary bring a travel plug adapter. It's the standard two-pin European plug here.
Guidebook: if you don't want to join the organised tours you will definately need a guide, otherwise you will miss out! Lonely Planet is currently the most up to date, but the information is still a couple of years old.
Phrasebook: Lonely Planet do a good Eastern Europe phrase book with loads of langauges in.
Ear plugs: If you are staying in a hostel be prepared to be kept awake if you don't have ear plugs.

Luggage and bags: A light backpack for during the day to carry your stuff, not many pickpockets around, but it's a city so you should still keep an eye out!

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: My holiday to Prague was in March therefore temperature was around -6 deg cel & coming from a meditteranean island - I froze!! So take warm coats, scarves, mufflers & gloves - all a must! Also, definitely a good pair of walking shoes, to see Prague properly it's best to walk everywhere!

Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Readily available from supermarkets found all over the centre...They even have Tesco's!

Photo Equipment: Lots of camera shops everywhere for your film/developing requirements...

Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: They have quite a few outdoor shops one good one is called HUDY SPORT in Old Town, who supply all sorts of outdoor gear, climbing accessories, pac macs and so on..
