Um, I have, and while I generally like and appreciate your posts .... if there's a second funicular, I don't know about it.

And I've taken one of those ferries, and it's actually a small boat with an outboard motor A ride I thoroughly enjoyed, BTW

Granted, I probably have an unfair advantage given that I am fluent with Czech language

And while I've always done the bus / Metro form PRG to city, I was shocked to find out how cheap the nonstop Airport Bus is (only goes to main train station).

Amazingly enough, the ticket is also good for weekend (maybe Sunday only, don't recall) vintage train ride to one of the suburbs.

But agree that prices are very good, and there is great flexibility on how to use tickets depending on how much time is needed.

IIRC you can acutally jump on a local train with these tickets, but those don't run nearly as often and would require more planning.
