Hi guys, Hope someone can offer some advice

Me and the missus are off to prague on monday for a few days to chill out and spend some time together. Life has been a bit hectic for us recently

Anyways... Im wondering which currency to get?

People have advised me to try and stay clear of euros as it makes me stand out like a sore thumb as a tourist, people have advised me to get Koruna instead

any advice???

Also. I have been told the taxis from airport will try and rob me blind with prices.... Anyone know of any companies who can organise a transfer for me at a fixed cost? preferably whom will be open tomorrow to organise!

thanks in advance

take the koruna not euros

Czech Crown not Euros
Bus from Airport not taxi. Dont even use them on your stay. Most good things do see and eat are within walking/tram/metro distance from Wens Sq. Try off the beaten track a bit for food. Try Josefov for nice cocktail bars. Try authentic beer halls for value for money and atomosphere. Website below is very helpful. You lucky thing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Prague defines cool.
