There are lots of great films and TV series available already so do like us and get your Netflix subscription today!

Maybe you already have a Netflix subscription and would like to watch it while in Prague? That is no problem, just visit Netflix.com and get started. But, what if you come to Prague and would like to watch US Netflix while in the Czech Republic? Is that possible?

Of course it is possible and what you need in order for this to work is to get yourself an American IP address. You can get that easily using a VPN service like HideMyAss. If you visit their website and sign up for their services, then you only need to download the HideMyAss client and connect to a server in the USA. Once connected you will have an American IP address and then you can watch US Netflix in the Czech Republic at once.

Watch Czech Netflix abroad

In the same way you can use HideMyAss to get yourself a Czech IP address. Connect to a server in the Czech Republic and once connected you can visit the Netflix website again and then you will be able to watch Czech Netflix from outside the Czech Republic. That is how easy it is and in this way you can easily switch between the different Netflix regions and watch region free Netflix in a few minutes from now!

Have fun watching region free Netflix and watching Czech Netflix from outside the Czech Republic and watching US and other Netflix regions from the Czech Republic.

[stbpro id=”info”]The Czech Republic was not the only nation to receive Netflix in the start of January in 2016. Together with the Czech Republic more than 120 other nations also gained access to Netflix, for example Poland, Slovakia and Hungary! For more Netflix news and information about swapping Netflix regions and new films and TV series added to Netflix visit netflix.fromabroad.org.[/stbpro]

[stbpro id=”warning”]Upon arrival to the Czech Republic most titles were available in the original language and with English subtitles, but in a few months this will for sure turn much better and most content will be available with local subtitles and maybe also synchronized voices?[/stbpro]

We have earlier written articles on films from Prague and we recommend that you read it right away if you have not read it yet. But, at the time of writing we did of course not know everything and we did not know about the fact that XXX with Vin Diesel and Samuel L. Jackson was packed with scenes from our beautiful city. From the first scene you will see the beautiful Old Town Square in Prague with its magnificent Tyn Cathedral, and then throughout the entire film famous attractions from Prague such as the castle, the Vitus Cathedral, the Charles Bridge, Rudolficum and lots of small and big streets show up in this action packed film.

Is the film worth watching? If you like Prague then the answer is for sure yes. If you are not a big fan of Prague, but of action, then this is also cool to watch. If you like both Prague and action, then this film is a must-see.

You can probably buy it on DVD or Blu-Ray somewhere near you, or you can go ahead and watch it on Netflix. It is available on Canadian Netflix, so if you want to watch it, then you should read more about how to watch Canadian Netflix from outside Canada, which also is the key to finding out how to watch Netflix from abroad.

Here you can see some more screenshots from the film taken as we watched the film on Netflix, so you go ahead and watch this as well. And if you like the first XXX film, then you can watch the second XXX film as well on Canadian Netflix!

Watching the Rugby World Cup in Prague!

Posted on by Prague Guide

We will be visiting Prague in September and October and come from England, the land of rugby enthusiasts. We are however afraid that since the Czech Republic will not play in the Rugby World Cup that it will be hard to see the matches. Have you got any advices?

It is true that rugby is a very “second-hand” sport in the Czech Republic and only a few people actually know that there is an upcoming rugby world cup in England this autumn. That is why you will not see the action on typical Czech television, but around in the city there are quite a lot of sportsbars and pubs and in these they often show live streams of sports events from English TV, so you should be able to find a place which will show the rugby world cup, even if you are in the Czech Republic and in Prague.

If this does not work, or if you want to watch it on your laptop, on your iPhone or maybe your Android device instead, then there is an easy way in which you can watch the rugby world cup online, and that is by using a VPN connection. You can read more about this and exactly how this works in this article written in the IP Address Guide.

For a full schedule of matches and which teams will play when, this article will give you more information.

We hope this answer has helped you, and do not forget to enjoy a nice river cruise, maybe a beer dinner and some real Czech goulash while in town!

beerTonight is the last day of the ice hockey world cup in Prague, and even though we are sad cause Czech Republic lost their bronze match against the USA, we are still curious to see whether Canada or Russia will win the gold medal in the tournament.

But, even if the hockey world cup goes towards an end tonight there is no need to despair, because the Czech Beer Festival is still going strong and it will last until next Saturday, so you still have six more evenings on which you can taste the fantastic Czech beer. So enjoy, and if you want to know more about other events, festivals and concerts taking place in Prague, then read more about whats on in Prague here.

Enjoy Prague, and do not forget that if the temperatures get really hot, then some sun lotion can be useful, because the sun can get really strong and make your nose nice and red if you do not put some lotion on it.

Best activities for families in Prague

Posted on by Prague Guide

Zoo PRagueIn this short article we will list some of the best possibilities for families in Prague during a holiday.

It can sometimes be hard to find activities suitable for the entire family as you plan a trip to Prague. That is why we have written this article, so that you will get advices that will make life easier for you and funnier for the children.

Black Light Theatre (Pražská 55)
Our first favourite place to go with the family in Prague is The Black Light Theatre. The Black Light Theatre is one of the best place in the city for children to have fun. The theatre gives home to several muppet, ballet shows and it also has illusionists and mime artists. The Black Light Theatre is extremely enjoyable even for younger children because of the dancing, the music and the colourful lights.

National Marionette Theatre (Žatecká 1)
The second place from our list is similar to the first one because it is also a theatre. The National Marionette Theatre is a puppet theatre in Prague. The National Marionette gives home to plenty of children shows which is also perfectly suitable for children of all ages and nationalities.

Franciscan Garden (New Town)
Franciscan Garden is our third choice of the activities with children in Prague. The Franciscan Garden is a public park which has a playground for children up to 13 year old. The playground has modern equipments, various slides and swings, a large sandpit and a climbing frame as well. The park is open in the summer from 7 in the morning until 10 in the evening and in the winter it is open daily from 8 in the morning until 7 in the evening.

Cafè Hajek (Havlickova 15)
The fourth activity of the list is a local cafe house in Prague. The Cafè Hajek. Cafè Hajek sells various sandwiches, cakes, different flavoured milkshakes and ice creams as well. Cafè Hajek is just located near to Wenceslas Square just where Franciscan Garden is located.

Prague Zoo (U trojského zámku 3/120)
The last activity from our list is the Prague Zoo. The Prague Zoo is definitely one of the most enjoyable program for children of all age. The zoo is located a few kilometres away from the city centre but it is definitely worth visiting. The zoo has various big cats such as lions, tigers and other traditional animals like elephants, sea lions, giraffes and penguins as well as less common animals.

Where to watch Ice Hockey World Championship online?

Posted on by Prague Guide

Ice hockey onlineIt is 2015 and soon it is time for the Ice Hockey World Championship 2015 to start. It will be arranged in the Czech Republic and in the cities of Prague and Ostrava, and if you want to know more about the World Championship in Ice Hockey we recommend our following article on the subject. The best is of course to come to either Prague or to Ostrava to watch the action, but if you are located somewhere else and want to follow the action, what can you do to watch the Ice Hockey World Championships online?

There are quite a lot of TV channels who will broadcast from the Ice Hockey World Championship online. The best way to watch the Ice Hockey World Championships online is by starting to get yourself a VPN subscription, because that will give you the chance to get IP addresses in different nations, which again will make it possible for you to watch the Ice Hockey World Championships online in different ways. We recommend using the VPN services of IPVanish for this purpose. Visit the IPVanish website here.

Now that this is in order what you can do is the following:

1) Visit Ceska Televizie, the Czech TV channel, and connect to a server in the Czech Republic with IPVanish. Once you get your Czech IP address you are ready to watch the Ice Hockey World Championships online on CTV in the Czech Republic. That is a free channel to watch, so you need no other subscription for this to work!

2) You can also watch it on NBC Sports in the United States with a US IP address or at Premier Sports in the United Kingdom with a UK IP address, but for all these options you need a special subscription to these TV channels in addition to the VPN subscription, so those are quite costly versions.

So, go ahead and sign up for IPVanish and watch the Ice Hockey World Championship online on Czech television, live from the Czech republic.
