€ 131
Prague boasts a fascinating history, amazing architecture, and a love for art. But what may surprise you the most about Prague is our food culture. Yes, it’s true! Gone are the days of standardized recipes and hard-to-find ingredients under the Communist regime. After the fall of the Berlin Wall, everything here changed, including the food. Today, Prague is as much a foodie destination as any other major city and this Prague food tour will prove that to you – and to your taste buds.
Tour Highlights:
Get ready to eat your way through centuries of history on this Prague food tour as you’re served a variety of dishes, ranging from the most traditional to modern recipes. With a local foodie guide by your side, you’ll follow Czech cuisine from its earliest European influences, through the Communist era of the mid-1900s, to the culinary inspirations of today. You’ll discover an assortment of Czech dishes that will leave your taste buds dancing and your belly full and satisfied.
Bring your family and friends and join our friendly guide for an intimate and hyper-local experience – your night will feel more like a dinner party than a typical tour!
First up on our menu: a local bistro where every dish is prepared according to traditional recipes from the 1920s. Enjoy one of their daily specials, paired with a slice of delicious dark bread and either a classic Czech lager or homemade lemonade.
For thousands of years, Czech cuisine has been influenced by its neighbouring countries and cultures, creating its own profile of unique flavours. At our next stop, you’ll get to try this blend of cultures for yourself. This is true Czech food at its best.
We’ll finish off with some sweet dessert. You’ve likely seen tourists eating chimney cakes out on the streets but our dessert will be something completely different – an authentic treat that reminds us of our childhood and that you won’t find at any tourist stand.
In between all these bites, we’ll wander the historic streets of this beautiful city, passing through the New Town’s art deco passages and exploring the magnificent Old Town. Make sure to have your camera with you as there’ll be plenty of great opportunities for pictures.

We can work our culinary magic to accommodate vegetarian, gluten-free, and most minor food allergies. Just let us know when booking your tour. If you’re a vegan or have a lactose intolerance, we’re afraid we can’t work our magic here in Prague.
In the restaurants, your guide will be making all the payments, including a tip on your behalf to the staff. We reserve the right to change the course of the tour and places visited in case one of the venues is closed. In the event of a change of menu, we will pick the best alternative, ensuring no loss in quality or quantity of inclusions.
Comfort is key on our tours, so we recommend wearing shoes that can handle Prague’s famous cobblestones and dressing for the weather. And don’t forget to bring a refillable water bottle to stay hydrated!
Don’t worry, we won’t let a little rain dampen our spirits! Just make sure to check the weather forecast and come prepared with an umbrella.
If you’re up for a leisurely stroll on some slightly uneven and cobblestone streets, then you’re good to go. Just be prepared to take around 4K – 5K steps throughout the tour. But hey, if you need a little extra love and care, don’t worry! We can arrange a private tour that’s tailored to your needs. We’re even happy to help you snag a ride from place to place via car or Uber/Bolt. So go ahead, and let us know how we can make this tour a smooth and enjoyable ride for you.
Of course! Our tours are family-friendly, and we welcome kids of all ages. Just give us a heads-up so we can plan accordingly.
We’ll take you off the beaten path and steer clear of crowded spots and overpriced tourist traps. Instead, we’ll be hitting up the local hotspots where the true Prague foodies go to get their fix. So get ready to indulge in some authentic eats and drinks like a local!
Tipping is not obligatory, but it is always much appreciated and welcome. In general, you can aim at 10%, but only if you’re happy with the services you received.
Private tours take a certain amount of planning so it’s best not to cancel last minute. If it’s more than 21 days in advance, you’ll get a full refund, less than that is 50%. We can’t offer any refund if you cancel less than 72 hours before the start of the tour.
Choose what time you want to start, where you want to be picked up, and what you want to focus on. Enjoy all the perks of having the guide just for yourself.
