He struck the perfect balance between historical insight and local charm—sharing fun facts, hidden gems, and even personal recommendations that made the city feel more intimate and meaningful. We walked away with a whole new appreciation for Prague. Stephen made the experience feel both educational and personal, and we’d absolutely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to go beyond the tourist spots and truly connect with the city.”

Prague Food tasting tour of Hidden Gems for Small Groups

6.Prague Food tasting tour of Hidden Gems for Small Groups

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 97 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $105

Spend about three hours walking Prague’s Vinohrady area with a guide such as Julia, Saul, or Dimitri. Stop at bakeries, a traditional restaurant, a sausage spot, and a bar for Czech staples including koláč, svíčková, knedlíky, klobása, beer, and Becherovka. The group is capped at 12 people, and the food is substantial.

“We were really disappointed with this food and drink tour in Prague. Unfortunately, it didn’t feel like we saw the real Prague — most of the stops were in a neighbourhood outside the main city, which wasn’t what we expected. There was far too much food and not enough drinks for what was meant to be a food and drink tour. That said, our guide was absolutely lovely — friendly, knowledgeable, and did her best to make it enjoyable. We don’t think it was her fault at all; she was great. The tour itself just needs a rethink in terms of location and balance. Sadly, it was the weakest tour…”
