The same type of ticket can be used for metro, trams and buses.

Connection to metro
The tram stop which is marked with the sign =M= means that there is the possibility to get out and continue with the metro.

Please tell me how to take tram or trams and/or metro from 1)Spojovaci to Malostranska and then 2)from there to the Jewish Cemetery in Josevof, the Jewish Quarter and then 3)from there back to Spojovaci. I have the map but do not see where to change. I would rather ride the trams even if slower. Thank you Bob Hunt USA

To go from Spojovaci to Malostranska, take the tram number 1 (26 minutes)
From Malostranska to Staromestska (there is Jewish Quarter nearby) take tram 18 (only 1 stop) or metro A (1 station)
From Staromestska to Spojovaci: take first the tram number 17 to Strossmayerovo náměstí and there change to number 1.

Do I need to pay extra for traveling with a large bag on the trams.

Brian:
You should pay for a luggage bigger than 25×45×70cm (or weighting more than 50kg). The tariff is 13 CZK. But in reality I have never seen an inspector checking the luggage dimensions :).
