There's no real rainy season. So bring your umbrella at anytime in the year!
It's easy to get films and batteries for every kind of camera!
Climate in some towns:
Prague: Summers average maximum is about 22°C (72°F) minimum around 12°C (53°F). Winters average maximum is about 1°C (34°F) minimum around -3°C (26°F). It can rain/shower all over the year, mainly winters and springs.
Liberec: Summers average maximum is about 21°C (70°F) minimum around 11°C (51°F). Winters average maximum is about 1°C (34°F) minimum around -1°C (30°F). It can rain/shower all over the year, mainly in December and January.
Ceske Budejovice: Summers average maximum is about 23°C (73°F) minimum around 12°C (54°F). Winters average maximum is about 1°C (34°F) minimum around -3°C (26°F). It can rain/shower all over the year, mainly winters and springs. Leave a Comment

Take lots of film. Mind my words, you'll need it!
ATM vs cash: You'd better bring along your ATM card and not cash. Besides the relative safety this offers, it will also help you to avoid huge commissions that are often charged by foreign exchange buros (and by the companies converting travellers' cheques into cash, alas, as well). You'll see plenty of ATM machines, especially in big cities. Many shops also accept the cards. Leave a Comment

The weather was unusually cold when I was there this June, and it rained quite a bit. Make sure you bring your raincoat and an umbrella. Leave a Comment

These fleamarkets operate any time of the year, and they are mostly outdoor stalls. If you go during the wintertime, dress in warm layers and carry a backpack. Make sure you have a hat and gloves, also.
The toilets are...lacking...unless you use one inside a restaurant. You may need to pack your own toilet paper. Leave a Comment

Miscellaneous
• Pack a good map of Prague and tourist guide, although both are available at the tourist information centers, book shops etc.

• The prices in the restaurants can vary tremendously; avoid restaurants which post menus in English only
• Tips at the restaurants are expected, but not over 10%

• Tips to the room service at international hotels are international, about 20 to 50 CZK
• When you walk around, carry some change – public WCs are not free; men typically 5 CZK, near Charles Bridge and similar locations 25 CZK
