How to Book Train Travel From Prague to Vienna

Video Transcript

"Vienna is a very pretty city, actually it's the center of the European culture with beautiful places to see, it's a lovely Baroque city, it's something you should really see one day. The RailEuro website offers you many, many opportunities if you'd like to buy a ticket from Prague to Vienna, and of course you can call them personally as well, no problem. The other thing is that on your way you can take something with you to read, because there are so many things to see in Vienna, which you should see while you're there, and maybe you won't even be able to decide where to go and what to do on your own, so it's better off learning a little bit about Vienna before getting there, seeing the wonderful Hofburg or maybe getting into a nice authentic Austrian cafeteria, or just walking around there is something really amazing. The best idea is buying, for example a ticket from Prague to an Austrian Border town, such as Huanou, and you can travel between these two places, and then after all, you can use your EuroRail pass. If you're under 26, you got to make inquiries in the train station in Prague, because maybe you get certain reductions from the price you have to pay for a ticket. If you're a bit older, you should just deal with the international travel agency, and then they will help you as well. The other thing is that, in case you have a EuroRail pass you shouldn't rely on it a hundred percent, because it's not much honored in the Czech Republic, and I have to say that, in most of the Eastern European countries, they don't accept it, so you should make inquiries about this as well. The trip between Prague and Vienna will take around 4, 5 hours. In case you'd like to see the Czech Republic or Austria in a short time, that's quite a nice idea, because then you will see the beautiful countryside on your way. But in case you'd like to travel overnight, it's another option as well, because you can sleep on the train as well, but it will take a little longer. Don't forget about another important thing, that the trains for Vienna will leave from the main station in Prague or the second largest station."
