Overnight journey from Zurich to Prague starting at 38 EUR
There currently are a variety of options to travel by night bus or night train from Zurich (Switzerland) to Prague (Czech Republic), taking between approximately 10 and 14 hours: Namely the BUS Lyon - Praha, the BUS Milán - Praha, the BUS Curych - Praha, the EC 459 and the EN 40459. These lines are operated by Regiojet, DB and ÖBB.
Regiojet operates both night trains and night buses across Europe, providing various travel options. Their night trains feature several types of cabins, including seats that can recline slightly for added comfort, as well as private sleeping couchettes that accommodate one to four passengers, equipped with bedding and duvets. Wifi is available and breakfast and coffee are complimentary. Regiojet night buses feature ergonomic seating that can recline for comfort, with generous legroom and amenities such as USB charging ports, free WiFi, personal entertainment screens, and complimentary refreshments available during the journey. There is also a toilet on the bus.
Deutsche Bahn (DB) exited the actual night train business in 2016. However, it operates around a dozen Intercity and Eurocity trains that run exclusively at night. These trains only have first and second class seats. The cars remain lit throughout the night and the seats cannot be reclined.
The Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) operate the Nightjet and Euronight trains (the latter together with other national railway agencies). The ÖBB usually offer three types of carriages in their night trains: seats, couchettes, and sleepers. While seats are only for the bravest, couchettes and sleepers offer a more comfortable journey. Couchettes can hold up to six people, whereas sleepers are private compartments for one to three people. They sometimes include a private bathroom or even a shower, sometimes only a sink.
