About this experience

Start your adventure in the heart of Prague, exploring the medieval charm of Staré Město and the historic Jewish Quarter before witnessing the city’s transformation in the New Town.

Kick off at Brewery Boat, Europe’s only ship-shaped microbrewery, where you’ll sample local beer in a unique setting. As we wander through the fairy-tale streets of the Old Town, we’ll savor traditional Czech pastries like kolaches and open-faced sandwiches, just like the locals do.

Step into the elegant Café Louvre, once frequented by Kafka and Einstein, to enjoy a classic Czech meal in a setting steeped in history. Of course, no food tour in Prague would be complete without a proper beer tasting—so get ready to sample a variety of Czech brews along the way!

For a grand finale, we’ll indulge in Café Platyz’s legendary strudel with custard, a sweet note to end an unforgettable culinary journey.

Escape the tourist traps and experience Prague like a local—one delicious bite at a time!
