Imagine zipping through the charming streets of Prague on your own sleek electric scooter, feeling the breeze as you glide past historic buildings and lively neighborhoods. This experience, offered by HUGO Bike Prague, provides a flexible, self-guided adventure that’s perfect for those who want to explore at their own pace. With rental durations ranging from 1 to 3 hours, you can choose how much time you want to spend uncovering the city’s treasures, whether it’s a quick spin or a relaxed afternoon.
We love that this tour offers independent exploration on a luxurious Czech-made e-scooter, giving you the freedom to stop wherever you like and turn on foot when something catches your eye. The comprehensive safety gear, including helmets, raincoat options, and gloves, makes riding comfortable and secure. Plus, the practice session ensures even beginners will feel confident navigating Prague’s streets.
