A private transfer from Prague to Mariánské Lázně covers 165 km via the D6 motorway and takes approximately 2 hours door to door. Fixed fare starts at €270 in a Mercedes E-Class for up to 3 passengers; groups of up to 6 travel in the V-Class from €315; the S-Class is available from €405 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 — Karlovy Vary or Cheb — 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 ride-hail app. A private Mercedes, one chauffeur, and a fare that does not change.
The Route
Prague to Mariánské Lázně
in two hours.
From a Prague pickup in Old Town, Vinohrady, Malá Strana, or Václav Havel Airport, your chauffeur takes the D5 motorway west through the bypass of Plzeň — past the Valík Tunnel and the bridge over the Úhlava — and leaves at exit 128 for Highway 21. The road then curves north through the rolling West Bohemian hills into the spa triangle, arriving in Mariánské Lázně at your hotel or the spa address you specified. No border crossing. Entirely Czech motorway from pickup to drop-off.
Mariánské Lázně is the green pearl of the West Bohemian spa triangle. Its centrepiece is the cast-iron Main Colonnade of 1889, a neo-baroque gallery 119 metres long that frames the Singing Fountain, which plays Chopin, Mozart, and Smetana on the hour. A few steps away sit the Maxim Gorky Colonnade, the spa parks designed by the town gardener Václav Skalník, the Russian Orthodox Church of St. Vladimir, and the Mariánské Lázně Golf Club — founded 1905, one of the oldest courses in continental Europe.
Total distance is approximately 165 kilometres. Driving time is two hours in normal conditions. Your chauffeur watches the D5 before every departure, and if Friday afternoon traffic builds up around the Prague ring, they shift the pickup without asking. You are not paying for traffic; you are paying for time.

the route.
Prague
Pickup from your hotel, office, or Prague Airport (PRG). Driver waits up to 60 minutes at the airport.
Karlovy Vary (optional)
A natural en-route stop for those combining the spa triangle — thirty minutes off Highway 21 and easy to fold into the same day.
Anywhere you like
A stop in Plzeň for lunch, a rest stop along the D5, or anywhere the mood suggests. Your West Bohemia, your pace.
Mariánské Lázně
Drop-off at any Mariánské Lázně address — your spa hotel, the Main Colonnade, or the Singing Fountain.

The Chauffeur
What to expect
from your driver.
Your chauffeur will meet you at Václav Havel Airport arrivals or in front of your central Prague hotel — not across the street, not in a parking lot. If you are arriving by flight, they stand in the arrivals hall with a Prestigo tablet displaying your name and track the landing in real time.
Conversation is a choice. If you want a quiet cabin for two hours of rest before a spa programme, the chauffeur will read that signal and let you be. If you want context on Mariánské Lázně — the green pearl of the West Bohemian spa triangle, the visits of Chopin and Goethe, the spa-cure tradition that has run without interruption since 1808, the summers of Edward VII — your chauffeur knows it.
Phone charger, bottled water, and WiFi are already in the cabin. If you need a specific temperature or a quieter playlist, say so. If you want a real rest stop along the D5 toward Plzeň for a coffee and a short walk, that is included in the time.

Frequently asked questions
How long does a private transfer from Prague to Mariánské Lázně take?
Approximately 2 hours door-to-door along the D5 motorway west through Plzeň, then Highway 21 north into the spa valley. Friday afternoons out of Prague can add 15–20 minutes.
How much does a chauffeur from Prague to Mariánské Lázně cost?
Fixed fare from €270 in Mercedes E-Class (up to 3 passengers), €315 in V-Class (up to 6 passengers), or €405 in S-Class. Prices include fuel, the Czech motorway vignette, and driver time. No hidden charges.
Can I book a same-day return, and will the chauffeur wait during my spa treatment?
Yes. A return on the same day receives a 10% discount. The chauffeur waits in Mariánské Lázně while you take the waters, walk the colonnade, or complete a spa programme. If you need the chauffeur to move around the city with you, add hourly city rental from €40/hour.
Is there a border crossing?
No. Mariánské Lázně sits in the West Bohemian spa triangle inside the Czech Republic. The entire route is domestic — no passport control, no vignette changes, no paperwork. Your chauffeur knows the D5 and Highway 21 intimately.
Is a child seat available?
Yes. Rear-facing infant seats, forward-facing toddler seats, and booster seats are available at no extra cost. Please specify your child's age at booking so the correct seat is installed before pickup.
What languages does the chauffeur speak?
Every Prestigo chauffeur speaks fluent English and Czech as standard. German or Russian is available on request at no extra charge — useful for spa guests who prefer context in their own language.
