✈ How to get from Linz Airport to Cesky Krumlov

Cesky Krumlov is a small town in the South Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic, known for its unique medieval and gothic architecture. It’s close to the border with Austria, so getting from Linz Airport to Cesky Krumlov is easy by taxi, shared shuttle, or bus.

Taking an airport taxi will ensure comfortable and fast transportation from Linz Airport to Cesky Krumlov and your accommodation. Taxi service is available 24/7 at the airport but you can also pre-book your airport transfer to skip the line at the rank and save time. The trip takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes and the average taxi fare for up to 4 passengers is €230.

A good and cheaper alternative to taking an airport taxi is to use a shared shuttle service. The trip duration is more or less the same and the average price per passenger is about €25, depending on the operator you choose. Finally, you can keep the budget even lower by taking the bus. Private bus operators, like Flixbus, provide transportation from Linz city centre to Cesky Krumlov for around €10 per passenger. It’s a great value-for-money option but it involves more hassle as you need additional transportation to get from the airport to downtown Linz first.

Not all taxi drivers in Linz speak English; write down any important information in German if needed.

The fare for long-distance routes is usually agreed upon with the driver before setting off and is not calculated with the taximeter.

Most Linz taxis accept card payments, but if you don't have any cash on you make sure to check with the driver before you get in the taxi.
