Once you stepped out from the airport baggage claim area, you will see various Cedaz shuttle stations. Don't worry the shuttle sign is big and clear. Look for the one that goes to city center and costs czk120/ €4. The final stop of the shuttle is at their office on V Celnici street, which is across from Marriott, close by Nam Republiky Metro station. You could also get off earlier for Dejvicka station Metro for czk90 instead. The journey time is about 20 mins. Pension Platan is 300m away from the final stop.
Prague > Kutna Hora: Local Bus - czk 62 each way
You can check out the timetable from IDOS site, select "English" at the bottom right, enter "To" and "From" locations, input the "Time" and set the time as your expected arrival time or departure time. Best practice is to select couple more bus options around your prefer travel time for back up. Remember to print it out so that you can show it to the bus driver to verify the location and time. Since it is a public bus, it has a lot of stops and its final designation may not be your designation. So be aware, don't fall asleep. Best way is to set your watch to alarm at 5-10mins before the expected arrival time.
To Kutna Hora, the local bus departs from Florence Bus station. As there's a construction going on, best way to find it is to follow the signs at the underground station. Don't mistaken the Florence bus station on the street. It's a large bus station that has many bus terminals, but the entrance to bus station is not that visible. You have to pass through a tunnel to find the central bus station.
Prague > CK (or CB): Student Agency Tour Bus - czk150
Remember to double check on the departure bus station, as the bus we took departed from Aut. Nadr bus station instead of the Florence bus station. We booked the ticket in advance from their Czech web site with credit card payment. You could also book it at the airport on your arrival but seat may be limited, or try your luck by showing up at the bus station at the very last minute....but that we will not encourage as the bus was quite full on the day we traveled(Sat).
CK > Telc & Trebon via CB: Student Agnecy & Local Bus
You could check all possible routes in IDOS site. In the morning we took Student Agency bus to CB, then changed for a local bus to Trebon. After visiting Trebon, you could take another local bus to Telc, and from Telc back to CK. That was our original plan, but end up we didn't go to Telc.
