Prague Beer Tour in the Neighborhoods Locals Drink In
Prague is a beer city, and it is surprisingly easy to drink badly here. The pubs closest to Old Town Square have menus in four languages, a line at the door and the same lager on tap as the one next to it. The places Czechs actually go are a few tram stops away, in neighborhoods most visitors never have a reason to walk into, behind doors with nothing written on them in English.
This private tour takes you to three of them. Over three and a half hours, a guide who knows beer properly pours you four different Czech beers — well past pilsner — with three plates of the bar food that belongs beside them. We move between neighborhoods by tram and metro, tickets included, and your guide orders at every stop, explains what’s in front of you, and settles the bill.
Every guide builds their own route from bars they drink in themselves, so this isn’t a script — it’s an evening with someone showing you their Prague. You don’t need to know anything about beer. Say what you usually like, or what you don’t, and your guide will find you the Czech version of it. When you’ve had enough, we’ll get you back to your hotel — or leave you somewhere good, if the night still has something in it.
What You'll Taste & Experience
- Four Czech beers, chosen so that no two of them taste alike
- A dark Czech lager that changes what you think dark beer is
- Three plates of the hearty bar food Czechs order without looking
- Neighborhood bars with no English menu and no tour group in sight
- Why a Czech pub still runs on rules that nobody writes down
- Enough Czech to order the next round yourself, and get it right

Your Prague Beer Tour, Stop by Stop
When most people think of the Czech Republic, the first thing that comes to mind is beer, and with good reason. Our country is the birthplace of the world-famous Czech pilsner beer and home to some of the best beer brands in the world. With the perfect combination of natural ingredients and centuries of brewing know-how, it’s no wonder that Czechs drink more beer per capita than anyone else on earth. On this Prague beer tour, you’ll learn how to drink beer the authentic Czech way, with great food and even better company.What an Evening on This Tour Looks Like
Your guide meets you in your hotel lobby at the time you picked — 1, 4 or 5 pm. From there we take a tram or the metro out of the center, usually toward Vinohrady, Žižkov or the quieter edges of New Town, and the first bar is a short walk from the stop.
At each of the three venues you’ll try a beer or two, with a plate of Czech beer snacks alongside — pickled cheese with onion and bread, sausage, something smoked. Your guide orders, tells you what’s in the glass, and settles the bill, so nothing interrupts the evening.
The walks between bars are ten or fifteen minutes, and they’re where you see the Prague that doesn’t make the guidebooks — depending on your guide’s route, a 1930s church that looks like nothing else in Europe, the television tower with the babies climbing it, or the park where half the city drinks in summer. At the end we’ll bring you back to your hotel, or leave you at the last stop if you’d rather keep going.
Where Your Guide Takes You, and Why
Your Prague beer tour begins in one of the city’s modern neighborhoods, far from the touristy Old Town pubs. In Prague, a true beer experience is always social. That’s why you’ll share this adventure with a passionate local who knows all the hidden spots.
What makes this tour special is that each of our guides designs their own route, showcasing their favorite Prague beer halls, microbreweries, and neighborhood pubs. From lively corner bars to cozy cellars, you’ll be discovering places that most visitors never find. And don’t worry, even though we wander well beyond the historical center, your guide will make sure you return there comfortably at the end of the evening.
Our team of beer experts has spent years researching (and tasting!) to bring you the very best of Prague’s brewing scene. Whether it’s a crisp Czech lager beer, a bold craft IPA, or a smooth dark brew, you’ll always be trying something unique.
Learn the Stories and Brewing Traditions Behind Czech Beer
Your guide will explain the fascinating history of brewing in Bohemia, how Czech beer culture has shaped daily life, and why the word pivo is such an essential part of our vocabulary. You’ll learn about the brewing process, pick up fun beer-related Czech phrases, and discover the customs that make drinking in Prague unlike anywhere else in the world.
The world’s first pilsner was brewed in 1842 in Plzeň, west of Prague. If that story stays with you over the second beer, our day trip to Pilsen takes you to the brewery where it happened.
By the end you'll have a favorite bar in Prague (not in the Old Town).
The beer Czechs actually drink, where they actually drink it.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Czech Beer Tour
If you love Czech beer, bar food, and exploring local culture with locals, this Prague Beer Tour is for you! Do I need to know anything about beer to enjoy this tour?
Can I join even if I don't drink beer?
What kind of food and beer can I expect to try on this Prague beer tour?
This isn’t your average pilsner pub crawl — we’ll take you on a tasting journey through Prague’s craft beer scene, featuring microbrews, seasonal specials, and lesser-known styles beyond the classic Czech lager. Alongside the beers, you’ll sample a variety of traditional Czech “beer snacks” — think pickled sausages, marinated cheese, smoked meats, and hearty bites locals swear by. It’s not a full dinner, but you’ll leave more than satisfied.
Which Prague neighborhoods and bars will we visit?
We’ll skip the touristy pubs and take you to hidden local favorites, from microbreweries to old-school beer halls tucked away in Prague’s coolest neighborhoods. These are places real Czech beer lovers go — no overpriced menus or English signs, just authentic drinks, food, and stories.
Does this Prague beer tour cater to dietary restrictions?
We do our best to accommodate most needs, including vegetarian, gluten-free, and minor food allergies. Just let us know in advance so we can plan accordingly. That said, we’re unable to accommodate vegan diets or full lactose intolerance, as Czech beer snacks often include dairy and meat, and alternatives are very limited.
Can I bring children or teens on this tour?
We generally don’t recommend this tour for children, as it focuses heavily on beer and pub culture. However, if you’re traveling with teenagers, they’re welcome to join — we’ll provide non-alcoholic options so they can still enjoy the food and experience. Just give us a heads-up when booking.
What is the cancellation policy?
Cancel at least 24 hours before your tour starts for a full refund. Cancellations made less than 24 hours before the start are non-refundable.
