About this experience
Prague is a food lover’s paradise, offering incredible value for money! Let our local guide unveil the secrets of Czech cuisine, beer, and wine.
Our unique tour takes you to 3-6 fantastic local restaurants, where you’ll savour a starter, main dish, and dessert. After each meal, we’ll take a 15-minute sightseeing break to help with digestion and explore street-food snacks along the way. We’ll also mark food spots on your map, so you can continue your culinary adventure after the tour.
Each dish is paired with a local drink—whether it’s a quirky communist-style cola, Czech beer, or wine.
We will explain the traditional recipes. You can learn how to distinguish the quality of the local dishes. Hear the stories about the Christmas „blue carp“, „hairy dumplings“, Easter eggs and other special traditions. Eat the „drawn men“ or a „candle sauce“.
