A private transfer from Prague to Regensburg covers 285 km via the D5 and A93 motorways and takes approximately 3 hours door to door. Fixed fare starts at €470 in a Mercedes E-Class for up to 3 passengers; groups of up to 6 travel in the V-Class from €540; the S-Class is available from €700 for executive or VIP travel. Every booking includes the driver's time, fuel, Czech and German motorway vignettes, 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 — Plzeň or Waidhaus — 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 Regensburg
in three hours.
From a Prague pickup in Old Town, Vinohrady, Malá Strana, or Václav Havel Airport, your chauffeur takes the D5 motorway southwest, past Beroun and through Plzeň, and on to the Czech–German Schengen border at Rozvadov/Waidhaus. The crossing is invisible inside Schengen — no stops, no document checks. Once in Germany, the road becomes the A6 for a short stretch west, then the A93 drops south through the Upper Palatinate and into Regensburg on the Danube. Drop-off is at your hotel, the Altstadt, the Dom St. Peter, or the Steinerne Brücke.
Total distance is approximately 285 kilometres. Driving time is three hours in normal conditions. Add 15–20 minutes during Friday afternoon rush hour out of Prague or during summer traffic on the A93 corridor — the main feeder to southern Bavaria sees heavy holiday flow and intermittent roadworks.
Your chauffeur watches traffic on the D5 and the A93 before every departure. If there is a closure near Cham or a backup approaching the Regensburg ring, they reroute via Schwandorf without asking. You are not paying for traffic; you are paying for time. Regensburg itself rewards the drive — the UNESCO Altstadt, the Stone Bridge over the Danube, the cathedral with its twin spires, and the Walhalla memorial just east of the city in Donaustauf.

Day Trips from Prague
Popular day-trip
configurations.
Regensburg is roughly three hours each way from Prague, which makes it a comfortable full-day round trip. Three configurations cover most requests.
The Cathedral and Stone Bridge Day
Pickup at 8:00, arrive Regensburg around 11:00. Four hours in the Altstadt — Dom St. Peter with its stained-glass windows, the 12th-century Steinerne Brücke, and a lunch stop at one of the riverside terraces near the Salzstadel. Return to Prague by 18:30.
From €850 — based on four hours on site.
The Walhalla Excursion
Pickup at 9:30 for a late-morning arrival at the Walhalla memorial east of the city in Donaustauf. After an hour at the hall of fame above the Danube, your chauffeur continues into Regensburg for a late lunch and a short walk along the Old Town before the return.
From €800 — based on three hours on site.
The Danube Riverside and Old Town Day
Pickup at 7:30, arrive Regensburg by 10:30. Five unhurried hours on foot — the Stone Bridge, the old Wurstkuchl sausage kitchen, the Schloss Thurn und Taxis grounds, and an afternoon coffee on the Danube promenade. Return to Prague by 19:30.
From €900 — based on five hours on site.
Indicative prices based on the scenarios above. The final fare depends on the actual time spent on site. You can book the journey there and back with a 10% same-day return discount, or add hourly city rental from €40/hour if you need the chauffeur to move around the city with you. Tell us your plan and we confirm a firm quote before you book.
The Chauffeur
What to expect
from your driver.
Your chauffeur will meet you in front of your pickup address — not in a parking lot across the street, not at an airport meeting point a ten-minute walk away. If you are at Václav Havel Airport, they are inside the arrivals hall with a Prestigo tablet displaying your name. If the pickup is central Prague, they pull up at the exact door you nominate.
Conversation is a choice. If you want a quiet cabin for three hours of work or rest, the chauffeur will read that signal and let you be. If you want context on Regensburg — that it began as Castra Regina, the Roman legionary fortress on the Danube, later one of Germany's best-preserved medieval cities and a free imperial city, the seat of the Perpetual Diet of Regensburg, and a Bavarian Catholic centre tied to the old Danube trade — your chauffeur knows it.
Phone charger, bottled water, and WiFi are already in the cabin. If you forgot a European adapter, ask. If you need a specific temperature in the rear cabin, say so. If you want to stop for coffee at the Rohrer Berg rest area on the D5 or at a filling station along the A93, that is included.
Why Prestigo
Why book with Prestigo
for Prague to Regensburg.
Fixed fare, no surprises
The price you see is the price you pay. Fuel, tolls, the German vignette, driver time. Nothing added at drop-off.
Owned fleet, vetted chauffeurs
Prestigo operates its own Mercedes fleet. Every vehicle under three years old. Every chauffeur background-checked, bilingual, trained for international travel.
Anticipatory service
If the A93 has a closure near Cham, your chauffeur reroutes via Schwandorf and the A6 without asking. For Walhalla memorial visits, the chauffeur knows the seasonal access windows and parks at the lower lot so you are not walking the full hill in bad weather. You should not have to manage the trip — that is the job.
Frequently asked questions
How long does a private transfer from Prague to Regensburg take?
Approximately 3 hours door-to-door via the D5 motorway southwest through Plzeň, the Czech–German border at Rozvadov/Waidhaus, and the A93 south from the A6 junction. Friday afternoon traffic out of Prague or construction on the A93 corridor can add 15–20 minutes.
How much does a chauffeur from Prague to Regensburg cost?
Fixed fare from €470 in Mercedes E-Class (up to 3 passengers), €540 in V-Class (up to 6 passengers), or €700 in S-Class. Prices include fuel, the Czech vignette, the German toll vignette, and driver time. No hidden charges.
Can I book a same-day round trip from Prague to Regensburg?
Yes, and it is a comfortable day trip at roughly three hours each way. Most clients book a 6–8 hour round trip with four to five hours on the ground — enough for the Altstadt, the Stone Bridge, lunch on the Danube, and a visit to the Cathedral. If you need the chauffeur to move around the city with you, add hourly city rental from €40/hour.
Do you cross the German border without problems?
Both countries are inside the Schengen Area. The crossing at Rozvadov/Waidhaus is invisible — no routine checks, no document stops. All Prestigo vehicles carry the German toll vignette and the chauffeur holds a valid international chauffeur licence recognised in Germany.
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.
Can the chauffeur speak German?
A German-speaking chauffeur is available on request. Every Prestigo chauffeur speaks fluent English and Czech as standard.
