Taxis, while a convenient way to get around Prague, are also the most expensive in all cases. If you're trying to save your cash, hoof it or use public transportation when possible. If you simply must use a taxi, negotiate a price before entering the taxi and accepting a ride.

Look for the radio taxis, operated by major companies, and avoid independent drivers. While you won't find these taxis waiting outside the airport upon your arrival to Prague (only "official" taxis are permitted here, and these drivers are known to overcharge), you can look for one or flag one down just outside the airport.
