Best method of travel--Flixbus or Train. Would appreciate input from anyone that has taken either. Was planning to take bus just read that train might be a better option. Staying At Castle View Apartment which is .37 miles away from center--a 10 minute walk to apartment. Thanks in advance from anyone who has traveled this route.

We used czshuttle.com for a private transfer as we were 4 adults. But we did stay at the castle view apartments. The location is perfect and the room we had, 2 bedroom on the first floor, was lovely.

To optimize your time, the fastest train is a daily direct intercity train leaving from Prague hl.n (Prague’s main train station) at 9:21am arriving in Cesky Krumlov at 11:52am. That’s as fast as any bus and you don’t have to sort out which bus station it is that FlixBus is departing from— there are 3-4 of them in Prague that FlixBus uses. From the train station, it’s a 10-20 minute downhill walk to the castle in Cesky Krumlov’s center.
There are afternoon trains returning to Prague departing at 1pm and roughly every 2 hours thereafter at 3pm, 5pm, and 7pm.

I took the CK Shuttle. I chose the door to door service and it was very easy and economical.

I agree with Barbara and Andrea- we used the CK Shuttle and the door- door service was a nice break. The drivers were very courteous and had excellent English- they were an added bonus.
We also stayed at Castle View Apartments and I would love to stay there again.
Have a great trip!
