A private transfer from Prague to Hradec Králové covers 115 km via the D11 motorway and takes approximately 1.5 hours door to door. Fixed fare starts at €190 in a Mercedes E-Class for up to 3 passengers; groups of up to 6 travel in the V-Class from €220; the S-Class is available from €280 for executive or VIP travel. Every booking includes the driver's time, fuel, Czech motorway vignette, bottled water, onboard Wi-Fi, phone charger, and child seats on request at no extra cost. Nothing is added at drop-off. The fare is agreed before departure and does not change regardless of traffic or waiting time at your destination. Stops en route — Poděbrady or Chlumec nad Cidlinou — are available at the fixed fare when arranged at booking. Your chauffeur monitors traffic before every departure and reroutes without asking if there is a delay.
This is not a shared shuttle. Not a taxi app. A private Mercedes, one chauffeur, and a fare that does not change between booking and drop-off.
The Route
Prague to Hradec Králové
in ninety minutes.
From a Prague pickup in Old Town, Vinohrady, Malá Strana, or Václav Havel Airport, your chauffeur takes the D11 motorway east. The D11 is the primary eastbound Czech motorway connecting the capital to East Bohemia, and it runs directly from the Prague ring road into the outskirts of Hradec Králové without branching. There is no border crossing, no foreign vignette to arrange, and no document check to anticipate — the entire route is inside the Czech Republic.
On arrival, Hradec Králové unfolds at the confluence of the Elbe and Orlice rivers. The medieval core is anchored by the Bílá Věž (White Tower) bell tower above the Old Town Square and the Gothic Cathedral of the Holy Spirit. Around that medieval spine, the city was replanned in the early twentieth century by Jan Kotěra and his protégé Josef Gočár into one of Europe's most coherent functionalist civic quarters — the reason Hradec is known as the Salon of the Republic. The East Bohemian Museum, designed by Kotěra, is part of that legacy.
Total distance is roughly 115 kilometres. Normal driving time is ninety minutes. Friday evening traffic out of Prague can add fifteen minutes; your chauffeur checks D11 conditions before every departure and reroutes if needed. You are not paying for traffic; you are paying for time.

The Chauffeur
What to expect
from your driver.
Your chauffeur meets you in front of your pickup address — a hotel in Old Town, a residence in Vinohrady, or the arrivals hall at Václav Havel Airport with a Prestigo tablet displaying your name. Not a parking lot across the street, not a meeting point requiring a ten-minute walk with luggage.
Conversation is a choice. If you want a quiet cabin for ninety minutes of work or rest, the chauffeur will read that signal and let you be. If you want context on Hradec Králové — the royal city of the dowager queens of Bohemia, the modernist replanning by Kotěra and Gočár that earned the Salon of the Republic nickname, the military history tied to the Czech Armed Forces headquarters, the rhythm of a Czech university town during term — your chauffeur knows it.
Phone charger, bottled water, and WiFi are already in the cabin. If you need a different cabin temperature, say so. If you would like a short coffee stop at the Sedlice rest stop on the D11, that is included in the fare.

Common questions
How long does the Prague to Hradec Králové transfer take?
Approximately 1.5 hours door-to-door via the D11 motorway. The D11 runs east out of Prague directly into Hradec Králové — straightforward, well-maintained, and the only major road needed for the journey.
How much does a chauffeur from Prague to Hradec Králové cost?
Fixed fare from €190 in Mercedes E-Class (up to 3 passengers), €220 in V-Class (up to 6 passengers), or €280 in S-Class. Prices include fuel, the Czech motorway vignette, and driver time. No hidden charges.
Is a same-day return available?
Yes. Your chauffeur can wait on site in Hradec Králové or return at an agreed time. A return booked on the same day receives a 10% discount. If you need the chauffeur to move around the city with you, add hourly city rental from €40/hour.
Is there a border crossing on this route?
No. Hradec Králové is in East Bohemia and the entire route runs inside the Czech Republic. There are no border checks, no foreign vignettes, and no currency changes. Only the Czech motorway toll applies, and it is already included in your fixed fare.
Is a child seat available?
Yes. Rear-facing infant seats, forward-facing toddler seats, and booster seats are all available at no extra charge. Please specify your child's age at booking so the correct seat is fitted before pickup.
What language does the chauffeur speak?
Every Prestigo chauffeur speaks fluent English and Czech as standard. German, French, Italian, or Russian-speaking chauffeurs are available on request — please mention your preference at booking.
