Shortly after Uber redesigned its mobile application, it came out with a brand new type of service for Prague called UberSelect. It stands between UberPOP and UberBlack, and provides more quality and comfort. Prices are only around 30% higher compared to UberPOP, so still very reasonable. The main benefits of using UberSelect are:
- Verified drivers with high ratings and great knowledge of Prague routes
- Middle class cars no older than 3 years (Skoda Octavia, Volkswagen Passat, Ford Mondeo)
The price for 1 kilometer is 13,- CZK ($0.50), for 1 minute 4,50,- CZK ($0.18) and a base fare of 30,- CZK ($1.17). This is still cheaper than the regular Prague taxi services (especially over short distances). A full price comparison table including taxi services is available below.
Service | Uber X | Uber Comfort | Uber Black | Airport Taxi |
---|---|---|---|---|
Price per kilometer | 11.50 CZK | 15 CZK | 27 CZK | 36 CZK |
Price per minute | 4.85 CZK | 6.25 CZK | 6 CZK | N/A |
Entry fee | 42.50 CZK | 55 CZK | 40 CZK | 60 CZK |
Airport to downtown | 400+ CZK ($16.00+) | 500+ CZK ($20.00+) | 650+ CZK ($26.00+) | 700 CZK ($28.00) |
To ride with UberSelect simply open your Uber mobile application and select it from the riding options (it is in the middle) as on the screenshot below.
