Quick answer
A Talisim Czech Republic eSIM works in Prague: 16 plans from $1.14, 1GB–50GB, up to 3G, 4G, 5G, on O2, Vodafone. Top-ups: yes, on most plans. Data only: no phone number, calls or texts. WhatsApp, FaceTime, Signal and iMessage work over data. Hotspot and tethering work, as far as your phone allows, and use the same data.
Where the signal goes
Good across the city and on the metro. The castle complex and the older churches are thick-walled enough to drop it indoors.
Getting around
Trams are more useful than the metro for the centre, and the 22 is a sightseeing route by accident.
Neighbourhoods
Malá Strana
Below the castle, and quieter than the Old Town after dark.
Vinohrady
Leafy, residential, and full of good restaurants.
Žižkov
The pub district, with more bars per head than anywhere in the country.
What's on
Prague Spring
May to June
Concert halls citywide
Classical music festival that opens on the anniversary of Smetana's death.
